Welcome
Mood:  happy
Topic: 000 - Introduction

Welcome to my blog space here on Tripod.

This blog is exactly as it has been titled ‘Opinion’ which is a reconstruction of the original blog entitled ‘Politically Incorrect’ which first appeared on Blogger, sponsored by Google.  The decision to switch from Google is based on many of the reasons I created the original blog in the first place – limitations.

While my intention is not to actually set out to purposefully offend anyone, I’m not going to kid glove anyone or candy coat my commentary in the interest of pacifying those that have the option of clicking the little exit button and departing this site.

Although the greater majority of these entries are in response to a post made by another reader, all of the commentary on this blog is the product of articles read on the Huffington Post.  The current limit of only 250 words is far too often merely a ‘Reader’s Digest’ form of my preferred to post.  While I understand the necessity of limitations, I have experienced far more misunderstandings due to what was not said rather than what was actually stated in a post.

I am fully aware of the fact that I can get a bit wordy at times, especially when it comes to issues of a political or religious nature and I can probably write a novel when the two subjects end up intertwined.  I suppose my commentary style can be compared to the same concept as that of ‘Tree Beard’ in the Lord of the Rings Trilogy when he stated that they felt anything worth saying is worth taking a long time to say.

All of that having been stated, I am providing the following disclaimer:

I am not in any way associated with the Huffington Post beyond being an avid reader.  I am not now nor do I ever intend to become a Huffington Post blogger.  I like my life just the way it is and have no desire to add even more deadlines or expectations to my already full schedule.

Index of posted commentary:
