Just a quick hello to my future readers. I have some reviews coming up about the sport of boxing, thoughts on music and I also want to share some recent essays that I wrote for school on several different topics. It is with great hope that this will be the catalyst to get my creative juices flowing again. There is quite a bit to talk about, I think. So much has happened and changed in this country of ours, the good Ol’ US of A. On the political front there is certainly no shortage of topics to engage in; hopefully from a positive learning capacity.
I’m a huge fan of the sport of boxing and, if you’re a fan as well, you know that the landscape has changed significantly in the last couple of years with resurgence of the popularity of the heavyweight division. I am a former amateur boxer myself and have frequented many live matches, and have watched almost every event on the television as well, most of my life. So, I’ll be sharing my thoughts on the most recent noteworthy fights.
Music has played a crucial part of my early development. I have been playing electric guitar, and other instruments later on, since age 15. I write, perform and record my own music for myself; for my own enjoyment. I have several favorite artists whose music I have followed for many years and I also enjoy some of the new younger artists as well. With that said, I will be sharing thoughts on the musical artists that really speak to me; perhaps some album and/or song reviews and bios/profiles on specific musicians.
On the political front… well, that’s a tricky topic to cover because of its volatile nature and propensity for emotionally-tinged, heated, debate. So, posts in the realm of politics will be as objective and neutral as humanly possible. The Journalist’s Creed and the SPJ Code of Ethics will be observed and applied in this section with the upmost diligence and professionalism. You will not find any biased editorials here —just the facts. That is, factual posts on current events sustained, or backed up, with valid indisputable evidence; the goal being, to arrive at the TRUTH—not to take any sides, unless you consider the Truth to be a side. So, with that said, happy reading!
