And now for our feature presentation...

Welcome one and all to the inaugural posting of Big Nose Blog, a title so good I just had to use it.

If you're reading this, there's a good chance you know who I am. There's also a good chance that you know I'm about 5 years late to the blog party. Who knows, maybe I can think of some podcast idea to do at some point. But in any case, I feel like I should be writing more in order to keep my skills sharp...hence, this blog. I don't know how long this will last, but I'm gonna give it a shot.

Be forewarned...the reason I am choosing not to reveal my real name here (yet) is that I am very interested in having other people visit this blog in the future. I am also interested in writing about any subject I wish, unedited. I see no point in writing opinion pieces that are neutered in order to spare someone's feelings. Thus I am only telling you, my very good friends and family, about this blog right now since I feel I have nothing to hide from you. I may have things I want to hide from other people though, hence the secrecy. And really, isn't secrecy fun?

Also be warned (and this goes to my family more than anyone else): I shall most likely be using copious amounts of harsh language in my articles. Life is more interesting with a little spice, eh? It's the internet...deal with it!

What do I plan to put on here? Whatever I can think of...movie reviews, funny videos, music, thoughts. I don't plan on using this as a public journal...I've never been interested in keeping a journal (a boyish word for "diary"), let alone one others can see. So no day to day updates about "today I went to the store, and then worked for a while, and then watched this movie". If I've got something I wanna write about, I'll do my damndest to make it interesting.

With all that said, let's see what happens, shall we?

And now for a little trivia: when MTV lauched on August 1st 1981, what was the first video they played?
