Off like a shot

I used to have a blog at this site, but I never wrote anything in it. People, though, were forever checking the backend of my email address and asking why I never updated my blog. Out of sheer embarrassment I have decided to scrap it and start over. Several years ago I published a blog called Boro6. Boro6 was intended to mock stylish hipster blogs that always trumpeted the wonders of life on the Lower East Side or in Williamsburg - at the time I lived in a slum in the Greenville section of Jersey City. The theme of Boro6 was that no sensible human being would pay $2300 a month for a studio apartment with a view of an airshaft. Eventually I ran out of things to write about, and moved to Virginia. Currently I'm a contributor to another blog called Memefirst. Memefirst is a group blog, and most of the others are Europeans or expat Americans, so I'm considered the "red state" voice. It's a little wearying, because comment threads are always forty-against-one arguments, and I'm the one.
