What a Strange Journey this will be...


Well I finally did it. I've sat down and decided to create a blog. Well actually I've been sitting for a while doing nothing and finally got bored reading other blogs such as wowinsider and joystiq.

Instead, the
Clarkson in me decided to ask the ever dangerous question "how hard can it be?" Come with me on this journey. We will laugh a little, cry a little, but in the end I hope to make you wonder how the hell you ended up on this strange strange blog.

Oh yes, about me. From my reading of other start up blogs it seems the typical way to start off is to introduce myself. I'm a young professional in my early 2os. After university, I started working for a litigation consulting firm. All my life I've been interested in three things, making money, video games, and cars. Not your Honda Accords or Toyota Camry's either, but the M3's and AMG's of the world. Remember, I'm in my 20's, not 50's.

In respect to video games, I enjoy almost everything, especially those with a good story. I am not ashamed to say that I'm a World of Warcraft addict (been playing for about 3 years now). Also, I'm not some anti social, pimple faced teenager one typically stereotypes as the MMO enthusiast. In fact, I do have a wonderful girlfriend (a new WoW player) who enjoys turning into a bear and mauling things into submission (she's only 5'4"!) . I am, however, a geek that occasionally enjoys performing reconstructive surgery on horde in Arathi Basin using a delicate
instrument.

Hi, I'm Chris and I enjoy log walks in Stranglethorn vale...

This blog will give you some insight of what goes on in my mind. For those of you not priviledged enough to actually hear the voices, err, ideas in my head, I will write them down for discussion. In this blog you will find:

-Car Reviews: This is not
edmunds, no objective data here. Instead you will get completely irrational reasoning as to why I love or hate a particular auto and why you should to.

-Musings on World of Warcraft: Perhaps I just got ganked by an overpowered Deathknight. These posts will allow me to get even. *Wall of text crits you for 10284 intellectual damage, you die*. Who's better now? I ganked you IRL!!!11!one

-The Economy: or what stocks NOT to pick. Do not follow my portfolio for fear of seeing your savings/401k disappear as if you had given all your money to
"that guy"

If you enjoy the blog, leave a comment! If you hate the blog, leave a comment, I just won't read it... Kthxbai!

  1. Welcome to the Blogosphere! It's a scary place, I hope you packed a lunch and a giant sword. Also, I think I might actually be 5'5", but it's been awhile since I measured myself. PLZ DO NOT BE CALLIN' ME SHORT.
