the journey of a thousand miles begins with going to the bathroom first

you know how gandalf the grey fell into the big pit o' fire and was "lost" and emerged as gandalf the white, different but the same, transformed, etc etc? you know how annakin transformed into darth, and even though there was a bit of annakin left deep inside, he was different, but the same? you don't? so i am the geek here? well, anyway, they did, take my word for it, and so have i. the netwielding gladiator was me, and there is still a large part of him in me, but that persona is finished. i am different now. the kick ass page made by deek and helped by indeterminancy and everyone is wonderful, but i don't want that name back, i'm done with it. you all can do with it as you desire. it can stay up, it can be used, rock on with your bad selves, i am no longer he.

i don't want to start and stop and start and stop, i hate being jerked around, and i don't want to be the guy who does the jerking around either. by the end of this month, i may have to stop writing for about a month and i don't want to do that. on the other foot, i got shit i want to say. i have'nt told anyone about this yet, but since i have had three comments (one was deleted when i changed names and started the haloscan) i know the word is out. i'm not trying to hide, i just don't want a false start, i wanted to make sure i would be around when it started. i will not have a sitemeter, so i have no idea how many or who visit this site.

the other conundrum is thus.....i have two sites, this and "impaled teen productions." i was gonna use this as a place to do just book and film and other reviews, writing about bikes and cycling and such. the impaled teen bit was gonna be my main blog, with the day to day crap and ideas and stories and such. but i don't want two blogs, i just want one. i shall save the other one, i think, and use this one primarily, at least for now.

so here is the deal....if you happen to stop by and find this or whatever, feel free to tell whoever you want to, no problem. but i will write here sporadically, or maybe not at all, not for a while. i will resume full on no kidding late september/mid october, before halloween.

so this is an unofficial start. this is like the dress rehearsal, the product tests, the stretch before the run. i'm not saying anything about this place, not yet, but if you read this and you feel like telling whoever, go on, i don't mind. but i am not fully ready to rock out with my cock out, not just yet.
