So there is not actually any uncensored material in this blog, but I am just writing to let you know that if I seem any bit tame or nice to any of you, it is really just because Kyle is a good editor. I have a tendancy to get fired up now and then, and especially if I have had a Belgian beer, then I really want the world to know what I think. However, I always click "Save As Draft" first and have Kyle look over what I have written. This is because I always say exactly what is on my mind, and that is not always the best thing...especially when it is published and out there for the whole world to see.
My favorite blog of all time is Dooce, and part of the reason is because she says everything that is on her mind (from constipation to some really foul language). However, this policy of sharing everything also got her fired from her job and got her family really, really mad at her, so I also try to keep that in mind. The deceptive thing about blogging is that you kind of feel like you are just writing a journal to yourself. Since I used to keep my journal in a Word document on the computer (because I am much faster typer than a writer), this is a really deceptive feeling to me. The common idea many bloggers share is that, if you would say it to a person's face, then you can write and publish it, but if you would not want even just one person in the world to know you felt that way, then you should not publish it.
So if you want to know if I have a feistier side, just know that there are many, many unpublished blogs on my computer... :)
