Initial Posting

Hello lads and ladettes, and welcome to my first-ever posting to my first ever blog.  Now, I'd like to begin my saying that I have absolutely nothing to say.  Nothing.  Seriously.  Not a single solitary thing.  You think I'm kidding, but I'm not.  Give me a minute; a minute minute. And ... No.  Nothing.  Well, maybe this blog thing wasn't such an inspired idea.  Yet I've read so many blogs where the whole screen was filled with words and the author still said absolutely nothing. 

Perhaps I'll be the reverse.  When I have nothing to say, I'll simply say I have nothing to say and leave it at that.  After all, what possible point could there be in an author rambling on and on about how he has nothing to say.  The very fact that they're rambling on about nothing in particular proves that they do, in fact, have something to say but they refuse to admit it.  Moreover, they refuse to admit they're just wasting everybodys time by nattering on about how they have nothing to say.  And in the end, they have wasted everybodys valuable time. Simply because they wanted to be clever and cover up the fact that they had nothing to say other than conjuring up some faux reason for explaining why they had nothing to say. 

All of which could have been easily avoided had they simply owned up to the fact that they had nothing to say to begin with and left it at that.  Which is what I have endeavored to do with this initial posting of Surreal Estate.  I told you up front that I had nothing to say, and that was that.  No time wasted, and we can all go on with our lives. 

Please check back later as I will likely have something to say in future postings.  I will deposit my postings like digital droppings on the information superhighway.  Some will be small, some will be impressively large. Some will be difficult to squeze out while others will flow so freely you'll wonder if a pipe has burst. But all will be worthy of morbid fascination.  And I will never blather on about nothing in particular.  Ever.  Seriously.  That's it for now.  Go on.  No, really.  It's over, done.  Leave already.

Are you still here?
