And the Nerd said: "Let there be blog." And there was blog.

Hello, planet Earth and its demented inhabitants!

RANDOM FACT ABOUT ME: I rarely wear belts. I prefer braces.

If you have other random questions about me, please direct them elsewhere.

On that note, here's my plan with this blog:

I will try to post here daily and talk about random thoughts and occurrences of that day. I also have scheduled certain days of the week to be special days, which will go as follows:

Cool YouTube Video Monday, in which I will post a funny or badass video to help us overcome the worst day of the week.
Cool Picture Tuesday, in which the post will feature a cool or funny image that I find.
Poetry Wednesdays, in which I will try to discuss the day's events and thoughts in the form of abstract poetry.
Cool Nerd Product Thursday, in which I will post a link to a fabulous and awesome nerdy product that catches my attention.
Old-Fashioned Friday, upon which the postings of this blogge will be scripted with the use of old-thyme terminology and spellings, much like the snippet you are currently looking upon.
Film Recommendation Saturday, in which I will talk about a film I have watched this week that I think you all should watch, too.
Quote of the Week Sunday, in which I will post an inspiring or hilarious quote to inspire us all as we move into another week.

And, since it's Sunday, I say we get this little blog started with a QUOTE OF THE WEEK!

"The only reason for time is so that everything doesn't happen at once."
~Einstein

This concludes the posting of The Mindless Ramblings of the Nerd for 23 January 2010. I hope to see you tomorrow for another exciting installment!
