Hello World!

Hello and welcome to the Serrated Ramblings blog. Let's start out by laying down some of the policies and ground rules... ehh, let's call it a disclaimer.

1.) This blog is an outlet for my day-to-day frustrations. I am not here to cater to anyone but myself. Many, if not all of my entries will probably be offensive, preposterous and downright silly. A lot of the things I will talk about will be ridiculous and I probably won't have any factual grounds! Some of you may find it hilarious or just flat out entertaining. Either way, I don't care if you like me or not. I'm not here to make any friends. All I want is a place to talk about stuff that REALLY annoys me. Stuff that if you are doing, please.... S T O P I T!!! Man... things are getting SERRATED already... Dang!

2.) I am not an English professor or anything of the like. As a matter of fact, I am a B- English student. Most of my entries will likely be riddled with terrible grammar and punctuation. Hopefully with the help of my trusty Firefox spell check, I'll get that much right. But again... I don't care what the English nerds think. This is my blog. Lastly, I really like to use the three dots at the end of many... well... let's just say... "thoughts". I am a huge fan of the ... . It is likely that will see many, if not hundreds of these ...'s riddled throughout my entries. If you are a fan of the ...'s chances are we will get a long real well. If not... then... Well, I don't really have any clever threats at this time, so we'll just leave it at that.

3.) Try to not stereotype this into an "evil, anarchist, emo, devilish, goth" blog. It may be dark and depressing to look at. The fact of the matter is, I am far too fed up with the pretty, fancy "fisher price" looking blogs that have become so common in our world. Honestly, all the people really want to see is the content. If people would put half their effort into good content instead of how the dang blog looks, we'd have some pretty great blogs. Truth be told, I have never worn black fingernail polish, dyed my hair or participated in a ritualistic sacrifice of animals or virgins. (speaking of stereotypes... haha). No ulterior motives here. I am just an average joe. I was just too lazy to spend 6 hours in photoshop, and 10 hours on the dashboard trying to make it perfect.

4.) 50% of my job is driving. Good old Interstate 15. Many of my blogs will focus around traffic related idiocy since 20-50% of my day is spent behind the wheel of a 2008 Ford Escape. If that or anything else listed herein isnt' your cup of tea, here's the door.

5.) This space intentionally left blank.

Ok... now that we have that out of the way, let me introduce myself. I am a simple, yet complex man from the deepest darkest reaches of the United States in a land called "UTAH". I live in an area surrounded by large collections of rock called "mountains". These mountains seem to block common sense and good judgment from a lot of the inhabitants who live here. Lack of common sense can be hilarious to watch on youtube, but when you have to experience it first hand, it gets annoying very quickly. I've tried to be the conduit of change many a one times, but my efforts have been fruitless thus far. This blog is my last ditch effort to cope with my surroundings. Through anger management and blogging to occupy my time, I just may find a way to survive this life.
