The Blogging Begins Again

My pledge to you in 2008 is to maintain the following rules:

1. I will not blog about blogging.
2. The humiliating descent into writing about my weight that precipitated my 15 month absence from the blogosphere will never recur.
3. The only Christians I will attack by name are those who know my phone number.
4. I will use lots of asterisks.* In fact, I want to be known as "that guy who uses lots of asterisks."

*I will continue the tradition of explaining five dollar words with asterisks, as well making humorous asides in footnotes.
