The Purpose of This Site
It dawned on my that many of you, my readers, would at first wonder what is the purpose of my blog. Actually, when I told a friend I was going to author a blog again she said, "A what?" "What's a blog?"

Seeing as how she’s probably going to read this post, I’m going to refrain from making any snide comments concerning her.

But every good blog (of which, this is not one) needs to have an over-riding purpose. Wouldn’t you agree? There are so many great causes in this world that people rally behind. I could write a blog about saving the whales and a great many people would come and post comments about how we indeed need to save the whales. (I have no idea why whales need saving to be honest. I’ve never even eaten whale meat before! It must be good though because everyone’s out there saving them whales. Probably because they are pretty to look at when they crest the water…that’s all I can figure they’re good for).

Or I could write a blog about the rights of the heterosexual. I know what you’re thinking….but everybody else is writing about gay rights. I care nothing for gay rights seeing as how I’m not a gay. Someone needs to stand up for the little guy! Write a blog about the rights of the heterosexual! Let’s have a tv show about friends who AREN’T gay! Let’s have ONE SEASON of “The Amazing Race” without stuffing in our token gays! For that matter, can we NOT find 12 people in America to be stranded together on some far away place and “Survive” without having a gay parade around in front of us nude (Richard Hatch on the first Survivor for those of you who missed that reference)? YES! We need someone standing up and writing a blog that says, “I’m tired of having it shoved down my throat! (uh…no pun intended). How about our heterosexual rights of not having to see such things!!!!

But alas, this blog is not about that either.

Ahhh….political! There are a great many political blogs out there for you to read. Whether you are Right leaning (conservative) or Left leaning (Gay…oh…sorry….Freudian slip….Liberal) you can find a blog out there beckoning us to follow their cause. But this blog is not political in nature either (though I may tend to wander there from time to time).

The rain forest is being burned away at a remarkable rate! But I don’t really care about rain forest. I’ve never been so this blog is not about the rain forest either.

AIDS? Do we REALLY need a blog about AIDS? I mean…come on….how difficult is that to understand? Keep it in your pants and you won’t catch AIDS. Seems pretty simple to me. So this is not a blog about AIDS either.

Oh sure, just like the aforementioned causes, I could make this blog a very pertinent to our times kind of blog. But I’ve chosen not to do such a thing.

No, what I’ve chosen to do is sort of make this the Seinfeld blog. You remember that show don’t you? (You’re showing your age if you do!) It was a show about what? That’s right, nothing. So, that’s exactly what my blog is going to be. It’s going to be a blog about nothing at all. Natta. Zip. Zilch. Zero. Yeah, it’s pretty much going to be what it’s titled, a blog that’s the ramblings of a pure ADHD maniac.

Pretty much whatever POPS into my head I’m going to type and then post. I’m not going to proof-read (I’m sure you’ve already noticed I’m not…it’s pretty evident). I’m not even going to go back and read what I typed. I’m just going to type whatever comes to mind (or fingers) and give you an idea what’s it’s like to have ADHD the best I can!

You may notice, from time to time (or actually more often than that) that I LOVE Parenthesis. You know why? That’s how an ADHD mind works. You’re on one topic (or at times three or four) and something else pops in your mind and you have to say something about what you just thought about (if you can remember).

So if you’re wanting to read a blog about absolutely nothing….you’ve come to the right place. If you’re wanting to read a blog about some great cause out there, you suck.

Who I Am
So here I am…sitting at the computer…wondering, “What in the world can I do to kill more time?” I mean, I already chat with a lot of people on yahoo. I’ve made many friends. But for some reason, I always pick people with life’s to make friends with. Seeing as how I don’t have much of a life to speak of, I find myself with free time while all my friends are at work.

Many of these “friends” have encouraged me to get back to keeping a blog. There, that’s my first and last short story. From here on out, hang on! I tend to ramble (uh…please notice the title to my blog).

I have to warn you, you are reading the maniacal ramblings of a 37 year old man with ADHD. Hopefully you can keep up!

WHO AM I?

I’m not really anyone. Actually, a more accurate phrase would be, I’m a nobody. I’ve never done anything particularly courageous. I’ve never pulled someone from a burning building. I’ve never saved a dying cat (on the contrary actually but that’s for another article), I’ve never even caused anyone to barf up a huge chunk of food they were choking on because they refuse to chew properly! (uh…how many times is it again? 20? 10? 3? Yeah…I think 3 is it).

I have never done anything daring. I’ve never jumped out of a perfectly good airplane and there’s a good reason for this. Something you should know about me is, I’m very accident-prone. I’m sure you’ve read about people jumping out of airplanes and the very first time they do so, their parachute doesn’t open. Well, I’m the guy whose parachute would have opened, had I remembered to strap it onto my back before jumping out of said airplane.

Yeah….I’m a nobody. You won’t find my name listed on any of the pages of “Who’s Who”. No, not even in the honorable mention section.

I don’t know anyone famous, I’ve never donated a kidney or any other body part to anyone famous, I’ve never even met anyone famous (well…actually I have but that fact really didn’t fit into this paragraph so don’t start writing me e-mails later when you read I’ve met famous people). I’m a nobody.

As a matter of fact, if People Magazine were to do an article on my life, they would quickly be sucked into the black hole of my infinite lack of notoriety and bankrupt themselves.

That’s who I am.

Hope you enjoy reading what I have to say! Believe me when I say, I’m not planning on saying much, but more about that in my next article.
