Ok, let's vegin...vegan...begin...

Seems like everyone one is bloggin', vloggin', texting, chatting, IMing or Ignorine-ing...and, well, I'm no different. Many out there are amazing writers. Some, well, not soo much. For me, well, structure of my sentences and the puntuation of my prepositions will, no doubt, be under scrutiny. People judge. That's what we do. Being judgmental, requires little capital of knowledge. The fine art of JUDGING, however, does.

In order to JUDGE, one must, well, know stuff. Be you Simon Cowell from Americal Idol or a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences (you know, the Nobel Prize folks), ya gotta know about the topic in which you are judging. And to understand, really having a firm comprehension, requires a bit more than a cursory cruise through the latest newstand rag or a sarcastic sound-bite from a (usually white) monkey-suited, one-note-johnny, I-know-all talk show host. To know requires ...dare I say it...work. Actual reading, thought, and analysis. You remember analysis.

Yes, of course, we all have our preferences. I for one, enjoy organic -nothing-added peanut butter whilst my hubby thrills for the slippery smoothness of a mixture of partially hydrogenated soybean oil, palm oil, sugar, and..oh yes, peanuts.

So as - and if - my blog progresses, I hope you will read this (and anything else you read) with judgement based on knowledge, not hyperbole. Read stuff. Read more stuff. Think about the agenda from whence it came and come to your own conclusions.

Blessings.
