And now we begin.....

I have been talking about blogging ever since I first heard about a blog. It was very attractive to me to have a place where I could comment without interruption about anything I wanted to. You see, I am very opinionated but not without reason or rationale. I believe in opinions and ideas that have a basis in fact and that are open for discussion.....the civilized kind---no yelling, or mocking (well, maybe just a little if it is funny...) I love movies and the theater and have close connections to both...(like an oscar)----no, not mine. But I also love politics and this is the year for that, isn't it?? Fortunately, for me, this is also the year I retired and actually have the time to blog. The stars have been positioned and it is my time so join me and join the discussion about anything and everything. I have lots to say and I think you do too.
