| Introduction | I'm socially awkward, thus my primary means of communicating with other humans is the internet. I'm on FaceBook, DailyBooth, YouTube, Twitter, and I have a website dealing with God and His coming Kingdom, as well as two blogs here. The first, ReMarks, was intended as an outlet for my personal thoughts, ideas, and musings. But nobody read it. I don't know if anybody will read my new one, It's All Music, either, but I like writing about music anyway. I also have a weird sense of humor; people either laugh or look at me like I'm from another planet. Both are fine with me. |
