Reservations on a Blog


People who know me are well aquainted with my quality of reservation. I don't like to rush into engagements or commitments until I am fully sure that I am not just racing after some impulsive whim. It is for this reason that I have not created a blog. I have been fascinated with the blog for a couple of years now, and have enjoyed casually veiwing the lives of my older brother and more recently my family through their respective weblogs. However, as much as I wanted to jump on the bandwagon as soon as I moved away from home, I felt that a blog was some sort of commitment that would require time and effort. I felt I might not have these commodities. Lately, I have realized that my blog can be whatever I want it to be, and it does not have to live up to the day by day chronicles of the Bjorn Identity in its former glory. So I send this out as the introduction to the Life of Markus (a reference to Orson Scott Card's Ender series that I'm afraid will be missed by all who read this). Naturally, I won't even be informing my friends or family about this blog until there is sufficient content, so I present this, for now, to the colossal Jane, known by most as the internet.

Hello there...I do not know you...and you do not know me. However, I love your reference to Speaker for the Dead through The Hive Queen, The Hegemon, and Life of Markus reference. You said the people who read it would not understand...I do. I see that you are into religion, as am I, but I believe it would be great if we really had speakers for the dead. It would be a nice change of things. Perhaps, in my will, I'll request for one...

Yes, I get it too. Also, Jane is not the internet, the internet is the Philotic Web. If you want to talk to jane go to http://www.endersjane.com
