Caveat Reader

BTW, arising out a conversation with a friend of mine - if anything on this blog offends, annoys or even mildly irritates anyone out there, apologies in advance. (If, on the other hand, you like what you read, more power to me.) This is meant to be my personal space for putting thoughts down on "paper" as it were. And before you ask why I don't just keep an e-diary or make this blog private, let me hasten to add that that possibility had occurred to me, but there will, I hope, be things that I have to say that I would like the world at large to know about, which is why I chose to make this public and why you'll just have to bear with me until then!
