The anniversary post

I was just struck by a realization today. This blog is a year old! I have been cluttering up the airwaves for a whole year! In spite of being a sniveling brat, threatening to take my toys and go home, I haven’t shut this mess down. I stand for something, and refuse to fall for anything. People who disagree with me are welcome to go elsewhere; this is my private corner of the internet. I’ll stand tall and say what’s on my little mind. I don’t have the sense God gave geese, but I manage a sputter of sense once in a blue moon. I see traitors creeping on my country. I see the practice of politics that exceeds rationality. I’m a moonbat loon, but I will take a stand.

United Possums has been around as an entity for a year. It started as an inside joke before 9/11. I worked as a journalist, filing stories of dubious veracity. Can we say “Jason Blair?” I have a lot of affection for the New York Times. I understand the power of the written word better than any English major. What goes down in print resonates more than anything reproduced in language recreated ad homonym.

I am all too well acquainted with the power of the written word. As I like to joke, I must learn to use this power for good. We are a year old, I stand for something, or fall for anything.
