Hello and welcome to my BLOG

I wish I knew my motivation for doing this, but as I post my first comment/thoughts, I am tired and have had more than one drink of some unpleasant lager, thereby removing any significant sense of responsibility and (sadly) coherency yet allowing me to try something I probably otherwise wouldn't have.
No doubt tomorrow will cast its sober light upon my evening follies and fill me with regret.
Somehow my can of lager reminds me of Pandora's Box only replacing HOPE with COURAGE.
I will see where this leads me, so for now I will just say I wish all the people of the world luck, fortitude, but most of all happiness in whatever form it may take and as long as it's not at the expense of others.
I hold all people equal, regardless of race, faith, wealth, health, gender, age or sexual orientation.
Hummm, I guess I'm not a Republican or Likud voter then, but not anti American or Isreali either just anti fundumentalist/fanatic/bigot etc etc. Aw come on, I did say I was tired and not quite sober and I reserve the right to retract any comment at any time depending on my condition or circumstance.

Good night world, peace be upon you.
