disclaimers, clarifications, and a proposal

I'm having a hard time justifying having a blog. I don't really see the point of everybody having a newspaper column and a blog. Then again, why not?
A couple of explanations: the psychotic title has particular meaning for me. It has to do with my work, and no, I'm not a serial killer. I marked my profession in the profile section as non-profit, this is true in a very concrete sense. Actually I suppose something along the lines of 'student' or 'science' would have been more accurate, but fuck Grice, what does he know?
Mainly, here's the deal: I am writing my dissertation. This is stressful. To help alleviate the stress, I decided to start a blog to bitch, whine and complain about all that is wrong with the world. I don't get out much, so at this point I'm thinking along the lines of, "why people don't respect the bicycle lanes" and "can you believe the hypocricy of MTV." Also people who can't spell should look for cover.

I suppose I always kind of wanted a blog, even before they existed. Now I think I need a blog as an outlet for anger to keep my aggression in check. The other thing that works is swimming. We'll see about this writing thing.
