Back again? I hope so.
I'm starting to get more ideas for things to post on this blog. For anyone who has been checking back periodically, you can tell we haven't been keeping up as well as we should. We've also attracted a fair amount of comment spam. If you are a spammer, go away. For those of you who have left legitimate comments that we haven't responded to because we haven't seen them, our apologies, and please do come back. I'm working on an actual post now and hope to have more in the future. I'm hoping Crazy Diamond has some ideas of his own too.
I'm not sure what path this blog will take in the coming months. I honestly thought it might have died with Terri, and part of it did, in a way. I expect we'll be airing our opinions about controversial subjects (some current and some not so current). I can't promise we'll be keeping up with politics per se, so unless we get involved in another specific issue, as we did in the fight to save Terri's life, this probably won't be much of a political blog. But I'm sure it will be controversial. Mostly, I hope subjects we bring up here will trigger independent thought and the desire to check out the issues for yourself and make your own decisions. There are a lot of things that we take for granted that we really need to be thinking about more, and possibly not trusting as much.
I also do want to use this blog in part to keep Terri Schindler's memory alive and make sure no one who reads what we write ever forgets what was done to her. Please continue to keep her family in your thoughts and prayers. While no doubt many have moved on to other issues and perhaps even forgotten all about Terri--she's certainly not "news" anymore--please understand that the pain her family is experiencing won't go away so quickly. It may never go away. You don't have a daughter and sister starved to death right in front of you and get over that anytime soon.
With all that said, I will go back to working on my first actual post in over six months--this one will definitely be controversial. I hope to have you all visit here again soon.
