Second First Entry

Within hours of posting my very first blog entry ever, one of my closest friends (who I think is a professional blogger but no one is really sure what he does for a living) immediately dismissed my blog as lacking purpose and reason.  To which, my reply was "whats the real purpose of a blog?" Am I supposed to be using my blog to change the world? Are the words I'm typing right now going to single handily pull our economy out of the toilet? As a former (and hopefully future) online marketing professional, my own conscience will not let me monetize my blog and let Google AdSense post ads alongside of my words that their algorithms deem to be revelant to my ranting. My initial intention of writing a blog was not to become a blogger (yes of course I realize its a self defeating prophecy).  But, I dont want twitter with you. I dont want you to add me to your facebook or your linkedin networks. I dont use myspace anymore except to listen to new bands. And if you use friendster go fuck yourself.  I'm writing this blog for me. I'd rather put my thoughts on "paper" as a type of cathartic excercise instead of seeing a therapist; hopefully leaving me some miniscule sense of accomplishment in what has recently been an existence of futility. 

Maybe as I continue to write here a greater purpose will emerge, but for now my entries will be pure rants.  Some will be funnier than others and some might end up being a little darker than you would expect from me.  These are my thoughts, these are only my thoughts.
