Today marks a new beginning for Confessions of a Geek. We're moving beyond just having a regular blog full of various and sundry messages about the mundanity of my life.

Soon there will be two new sections for your (lack) of enjoyment.

1. The Halves and Half Knots (or Rants, over to your left) will be a collection of societal and political rants. Perhaps you'll agree with them. Probably not. I hope they offend you in some way, but cause you to think about what's going on around you.

2. Part of This Nutritious Breakfast (or Fiction over to your left) is a place where you'll (eventually) find a new character whose story will unfold in random, serialized tidbits. This new character does not have a name yet, but he's slowly finding his identity. His world and self will be created before your eyes.

Anyway, I'm off to buy my wife a bike, my kid a carseat and myself some shorts. The neighbors are starting to complain about me walking around in my underwear.
