An Intoduction

As my very first posting I though I would add a bit to the 'about me' post that I had trouble editing to 1200 characters.

My friends and family are very important to me, in fact the line is very blurred most of the time. If it weren’t for the encouragement of friends I wouldn't be doing this. And it is as much written for them as it is for me.

In my thirty plus years, I have been a few things. (Or at least considered myself so.) Musician/Artist hopeful, accounting clerk, software support technician, technical writer, dart team captain, slo-pitch player, scorekeeper and honorary team member, and have even had he honor of working on a film which somehow landed me with my own entry on imdb.com. And depending on who you talk to I have been a friend, lover or a-hole, sometimes even all three at once, but I would guess I'm not alone in that distinction.

I would very much like to hone my meager writing skills for future opportunities. I hope you enjoy reading this blog as much as I hope I enjoy writing it. Please excuse my poor grammar; I knew I should have paid more attention in grade school!

In case you don't know me, I do attempt in my sports writing to be somewhat unbiased, but I am a fan, so things may end up being slanted despite my best intentions. For example, I am a unapologetic Sens fans, but I do follow the Leafs as I live in Toronto. I don't really have much against the Leafs (as long as they are not playing my Sens) but I will call it as I see it. At the risk of Bill Simmons branding me a team bigamist, I do like both teams and want to see the best for them. (But slightly more for Ottawa, ‘natch!)
