Why I do it…
So as most of you know, I love writing. I love reading too.
The big problem is that I’ve never been in environments where being inclined in the journalism arena has rewarded with more than a small bit of pride for expressing ideas and opinions in such a manner that other people seem to like reading. Hence, the blog.
You see. If you get mentioned on the blog…in some form or fashion…you’re important in TonyTown. It may not be in the creepy stalker way you’re wishing for, but the truth is that being mentioned here is an indication that in some form or fashion, there is some moral or ethical scenario you should invest the time to develop an opinion on.
For some crazy reason…I am ten times more inspired when writing here than I am when fixing expensive servers or helping people save/make more money. I think maybe I feel disconnected from the world I want to help, and am inexorably bound to a part of the world that yields no social or ethical reward, and boy is it making for a very unhappy Tony.
Luckily, my Mom has totally given me a little piece of inspiration and it directly involves my writing and even more importantly my desire to do something far more meaningful. News about it later as I get some things organized, but the people I have to thank for this idea are sooo going to get some kudos…
In the meantime. It may help you understand the thought process of moral/ethical reward versus financial. Watch this video, I swear you’ll learn something.
Anyhow, the creative juices are flowing. Hope you guys enjoy the ride 😉
