The begining

Well guess what, Homer is blogging. When I first learned of blogging, I thought it was the silliest exercise one could do, your diary online? The only thing more of a time waster are those who would read them. But as blogging grew I found some excellent sites to both humor and educate me. Now with a long (and first) overseas trip looming, I have decided that a blog would be a great way to communicate to friends and family. I am sure this site's format will change as I learn more about what I can and cannot so.
