As some of you know I used to blog regularly on myspace. I’ve decided that I will from now on call this my home. Changes in scenery often times infuse folks with more creativity and thats what I hope this will do.  This particular post was inspired by several folks on twitter and I figured was a good way to re introduce myself to the interweb. In the event that I turn into a supervillian, please break the below glass and use at your discretion.  Thanks and welcome.
