An introduction blog

I have been thinking of doing this blog for awhile. I mean I am a very opinionated person at the best of times, and frankly... now that I have a platform (this website) thats eeked out a moderately succesful viewership (in some areas) I feel my soapbox has been neglected for far too long.

I used to do a personal blog (actually I have had a couple over the years) including a fairly often read 1 back when myspace was a thing. People enjoy reading scathing criticism...and it is something I do a lot. I also do compliment things too...granted, on average, that will probably end up being like 20% of the posts here.

What will I comment on here? Life. Businesses. Work. Pretty much anything I feel compelled to voice my tiny little opinion on.

Like I said, I wanted to do this for awhile. I've missed a lot of persona, national & international stories in that procrastinating. Hopefully, there will be no more delays.

Since this is sorta supposed to be an introduction....perhaps a few small tidbits about me.

I'm a 30something male from Vancouver, Canada that has created a small little space in the world selling sports & celebrity memorabilia, mostly autographs. I also blog & photograph TV & movie sets from time to time, and have even been published in a couple magazines over the years..... but I am certainly NOT a pap. Not only do I not see myself as that, real paps dont either.

I live in a poor neighbourhood, the downtown eastside of Vancouver. Financially, the poorest neighbourhood in Canada. I'm ok with it. Sure, I would LIKE to live somewhere else, but living here has opened my eyes to things I frankly, was pretty closed minded about when I was younger. Someday down the line... I am sure I will probably rant about some of the annoyances of living here, but it could be worse.

There is a plethora of sports, tv shows & movies I like. As a single male, there is also a list even longer of female athletes and actresses that I am a fan of.

I am at times lazy, at other times I can rip thru 6 hrs of work in 4 hrs, but thats rare. As I have gotten older, a lot of minor & possibly larger physical ailments have made me less active. I am fairly smart, but still prone to doing stupid things. I have little patience for stupidity as a whole though, my own included.

What you will see here will be my opinions & observations. Sometimes, you might think I'm wrong, sometimes you might think I am right. But 1 thing will always be certain, you will get my very raw, generally uncensored viewpoint on whatever topic I am
