			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Do I really need a blog? Probably not.</p>
<p>And yet over the years I have had a variety of thoughts and experiences that I&#8217;ve felt would make interesting reading on a blog. Since I have a website already I might as well use it as a blog. And so&#8230; here&#8217;s a blog. You can, no doubt, so the flawless logic in my reasoning.</p>
<p>And for my first blog entry&#8230; have I ever mentioned how much I dislike the word &#8220;blog?&#8221; There is just nothing graceful about the word. Too close to slog, flog and grog. For some reason I always think of &#8220;blog&#8221; as referring to writing that unrefined and tedious by its very nature.</p>
<p>But I highly respect the artform at a whole. There are some excellent and well thought out blogs to be had these days. With any luck this will eventually be numbered among their company.</p>
