Bienve-freakin-nidos.

I've been thinking for a while about moving most of my writing over to a new blog, because I feel that a lot of what I have to say might not be appropriate for the mass audiences of Facebook. The problem is that I couldn't think of a name for the blog, and while I tried to think of one, couldn't. Today I was thinking about writing an article on the Hold Steady, a major rock group from this year, and it hit me.

I should call my new blog "Boring Conversation Anyway." Well, obviously, that was taken, as most good names are. I thought about a bunch of other quotations from Star Wars and "Easy, baby, hold together," sounded good (not to mention a Solo line), but as far as blogging goes I thought "Cut the chatter, Red 2" might make more sense in an ironic sort of way. No one starts a blog to cut the chatter, which is why I suppose that until 3 minutes ago, the title was open. Anyway, if you're wondering who Red 2 is, it's Wedge Antilles played by Dennis Lawson.



I hope you enjoy. Thoughts on this season's opening 4-hour premier of 24 and the Hold Steady's album are coming soon.
