and so it begins. again.

A long time ago, in a blogosphere far, far away . . .

EPISODE IV: A NEW BEGINNING

It is a period of civil unrest.
Rebel bloggers, striking
from anonymous places, have posted
countless entertaining stories across
the limitless bounds of cyberspace.

During the early days, one
blogger was
discovered and exposed,
ultimately forced to
blow up his old site
as if it had
been the
DEATH STAR.

No longer pursued by
humorless agents, that
cranky old blogger
has now returned
to post in the hopes of
once again adding
his craptastic views to the
blogosphere ….

So yeah, I’m blogging again.

I have no idea how this is going to turn out, but the plan is to create something here that’s a little bit of all the things I do and have done, hopefully churning out something that’s entertaining and worthwhile as well as totally in my own voice and on my own terms. No more hiding behind (poorly constructed) pseudonyms or running from what I dare to write.

What could possibly go wrong?

By the way, you may have noticed the brandy new, full-service site here, which I totally built myself! [*runs thumbs along Urkel-like suspenders, sprains shoulder attempting to pat self on back*] Okay, I got a few tips from someone who knows what she’s doing, but I did all the actual work myself, although I’ve already got someone making me a better banner. But things like the tabs, Flickr stream and written content–all 100% me, baby!

As you can see, I have my “legitimate” work here as well as some of the “illegitimate” stuff that I do (and have done). It’s a Ray Bendici Open House, so feel free to poke around, go through the stuff I’ve been keeping in my closet, open my junk drawers—just don’t complain if you find something you didn’t expect (or like).

Thanks for coming by. Let me know how you like the new place …
