Sooner or Later

They say a blog should have a theme. They say a blog without a theme is a blog without an audience. To find a theme, they suggest picking a topic you know a little something about and then driving that topic home. I don’t have an audience, and frankly, I don’t give a damn. But if you know me, you know that this is easier said than done. By default, this blog will probably find a theme for itself. You see, I love music and I enjoy drinking. And when it comes to writing entries for this blog, I'm typically partaking in both.

Tonight is no exception. I’m drinking Miller Lite and listening to Dean Martin. A couple of nights ago, when I wrote my last entry, I was listening to Gordon Lightfoot and drinking Gin ‘n Tonics. Remember? Of course you do. So there it is, a niche! And let’s roll with it, don’t you think?

But listen, not everything I write here will be as neat and simple as what’s spinning and on what I’m sipping. Sometimes, albeit seldom, I might actually have something to say - something of substance and possibly even consequence. And when I do, for your sake and for mine, I want to have your permission to share freely and without boozal or tunal reference points. Until that day comes, though, let’s turn The Best of Dean Martin to its B-side and grab ourselves another beer. That’s amore!
