What's the point here?

The idea for this little project was born during a discussion of whatever current controversy had provoked our ire. It is hard to maintain a lively debate when both participants have taken the same side, but after fifteen years this seems inevitable. We always both saw that thing on the news the other day. Neither of us can ever believe what that guy said on Bill Maher last night. We have heard all of each other’s stories -hell, we were both in most of them. As a result, our polemics usually involve such provocative come-backs as “I agree”, “Yeah, me too” and “I’m sorry, did you say something?” Our gene pool of new ideas is rather shallow. So we thought maybe it was time to find a new source. And that, gentle reader, is where you come in. The blog, that marvelous invention of the 21st century, gives everyone with half a hair-brained idea the chance to disseminate that idea to the world. After checking our stores of hair-brained ideas and finding that our shelves are full, we have decided to jump on board. A new audience for our stories? A place to ramble, to rant, to speak only in prepositional phrases when the mood strikes? We’re in. Our blogorrhea is destined to be an eclectic mix of odd musings, heated rhetoric and whatever pops into our heads. But we also hope to include your stories, your counter-point to our points, your prepositional phrases when they’re long enough to obscure the fact that there is no actual predicate anywhere in your sentence. So please read, enjoy and let us know what you think.

Welcome to our blog.
