Let there be vacation

Yeah, this is it.  I'm sitting at the precipice of a week long vacation. (on a side note before we get started, i just spelled precipice right on my first try and the red line told me i spelled vacation wrong, go figure.)  That's 7 more days of almost nothing to do except change my oil and go to the dentist, well and study some more for a Comptia exam.  Other than that, nada!

 

So, as you can see this is a new blog written with the intent of doing something productive. Well, if you don't consider videogames productive.  The most important thing when starting a new project, being a painting, article, short-story what have you is to have a direction. Well, my compass is broken and i have none.  I won't be pontificating on one subject, though video games will probably come up a lot, but sports, movies, books, politics, comedians, children, ipods, society and popcicles are all on the table.   Hence the name switchboard.  I plan on searching papers and  the web and tv and the man on the street and relaying my opinion and having a discussion on this topic.  Get it.  Switching.  ugh.  Well, I like it, so step off. 

I'll try and be funny so you won't get bored and hopefully anyone who reads this will leave their opinion and we can use that to lead to further topics and so on and it will begin to snowball and I will have to do even less work.

Oh before I wrap up, who am I?  Nobody you'd know.  32, married, with daughter, brown hair, 6 feet tall, work at a softdrink company.  I read, walk, eat, breathe, listen to music, want to be a comedian (probably shouldn't write that) and writer (probably shouldn't make light of that) and am generally terrible at athletics and board games which belie my intense competitiveness.  Thanks for coming, see you soon.
