It pretty much had to happen sometime

There, I broke down and did it. Are you happy now, world? I went and got my own blog, like everybody else.

So then the question becomes: what to do with it? I've named this little scrap of cyber-real-estate "The Great Concavity" after the post-apocalyptic waste dump the Northeast US becomes in David Foster Wallace's "Infinite Jest". I guess its a sort of dumping ground for observations on politics, books, TV, the internet, etc. Imagine the illegitimate love-child of Atrios and Heather Havlarski... if everything goes really well.

If everything goes only moderately well, imagine semi-literate rants about the emergent net culture, and quasi-coherent rage fests at the contemperary political situation.

If everything goes poorly.... imagine this template. This soothing, empty template with its loving, earth-tone colors.
