First Post

Ok, here we go. I set this blog up today on a lark and now we'll see what will happen. A little bit about me: I live in Arizona (thus the sobriquet), work full time as a _______, and have a family. Haven't yet hit the half-century mark, but it's headed my way and closing fast. I'm interested in politics, culture, religion, ideas, travel, current affairs, and sports to some extent. I figure this blog will be heavy into politics and current events, and hope you'll feel free to throw your two cents into the discussion anytime you'd like. Anyway, that's it for now.
