I imagine these are the thoughts that distract you from your mundane daily tasks, the nagging questions that gnaw at you as you scuttle from one meaningless obligation to the next. Life is not fully lived, an experience not truly experienced until Dave's wit and critical eye has come by to tuck it into bed. What should you like? What should you feel? What should you think? Who has the time, let alone the intellect and refined taste, to form a well thought out and authoritative opinion on everything?
"Not me." you say.
"Yes me." I say.
I don't assume to tell you what to do or believe. I can't force you to agree or adopt my views. That would be presumptuous and rather boorish. I wish simply to "dictate" your opinions on a wide range of topics. As a "dictator" of opinion I will state clearly and beyond contention what the best, and often only, view on a subject should be. Topics as wide ranging as music, boxing , the Habs, and art will be discussed and final, comprehensive judgements will be made. Of course, while your feedback is not necessary, it may be read and, if particularly boneheaded, responded to.
Also covered in this blog will be more humdrum details of my comings and goings, successes and failures, weddings, excursions abroad, and all the other stuff I barely even care about myself. Skimming of these entries will be encouraged.
I hereby officially cut the ribbon, smash the bottle, and invite you into my shiny new blog. I extend a hand and welcome you with the words of O Osbourne:
"Take my hand, my child of love. Come step inside my tears
Swim the magic ocean I've been crying all these years"
