"Yes, it's me....Randy420.
For those of you who have known me for years under that name, you may know what to expect here, but for the uninitiated....look for rants or thoughts about a VERY random assortment of issues. Everything from poetry to theology to the usual fare (diarrhea mackerels and all that garbage). I don't do much politics unless they pertain to the Civil War era!
I will also use this place to just write. to write for the sake of writing.
It may be brilliant. It will probably suck.
I hope it will at least be interesting enough to keep you coming back.
So...
Off we go....."

A year of blogging and I would say that I did pretty much fulfill what I predicted on that very first day, when I didn't know anyone at all here. I had tipped a few friends off that I would be writing a blog and that's why I was acting like someone had heard of me in that first post. I really had no idea what I was getting into back then... I wrote little snippets about the country life, and wasn't involved with much interaction here until I got a couple of comments and struck out into the Stream to see what THEY were writing about... well, it just blossomed from there in a big way. A BIG THANKS goes out to "Belle", who was incredibly supportive and really helped to make me feel like I was a part of something bigger here than just my own silly little blog in those early days. I am amazed at how much love and support I have received here, and I think I have made some friends that I can never let go of now.
And...
Far too many laughs to even try to revisit here!
Anyway, Thanks to all you crazy Streamers!
Randy
