Well hello, it’s nice to be here.  I’ve been wanting a blog for a while, and this site looked great!  I guess I should share a little bit about myself.  I love sports, particularly baseball, football and golf.  My favorite teams are the Reds (woe is me) and the Bengals.  I’m also a huge Shaun Alexander.  I enjoy reading, going to movies, and I kind of have a weird fetish with pirates.  I have an abnormally large wardrobe of pirate clothing.  I like to work out, although recently I’ve been sidelined by a strange injury and have had to find some treatment for heel spurs.  It has kept me away from squatting, lunging and other exercises.  In fact, I’ve been looking into changing my bathroom because of it.  Well, that’s a bit about me for now.  I look forward to writing all sorts of things on this blog.
