It's a struggle for me to blog, even though I have this great new platform from which to do it. That's mainly because I'm self-conscious. I realize that this forum is no longer a bubble of sorts, that my photos and comments and whatnot are out there, associated with my Open Salon identity for all the world to (someday) see.

So, this morning I was thinking, I'd really like to start blogging regularly. Play with this cool new toy. But I'd also like to retain some anonymity. I realized I needed a topic, something other than silly photos or random comments about television or my personal life. Something I know about, and something about which there's always something new to say.

Behold: the transformation of my blog from the superficial to the analytical (well, maybe a bit superficial). My blog will be my musings on the topic of the Oakland A's. A great team for which to root, for a great number of reasons.
