I come here before you

...To stand behind you
To tell you something
I know nothing about

Admission is free
Pay at the door
Pull up a chair
And sit on the floor.

To tell the truth, I'd almost forgotten this little poem, save for the first couplet that forms the title of this post. I remember a girl from primary school. Brown hair, ponytail. I think she was half-Aborigine. She was called Sarah. She didn't know the full poem either. I do remember her having a gap in her teeth though.

Diversions aside and introductions over I'd now like to announce to all...zero of you what this blog will be about.

It will discuss everything I don't know.

To clarify, this includes things I hear about. Things on my mind that take root and compel me to find out more. Things I thought I knew about, but after five minutes on wikipedia reveal my preconceptions to be completely wrong. In short this blog will be about learning, and the thought process behind my epiphanies and knowledge aggregation and how I form my prejudices.

There will be bias. There will be inaccuracies. Occasionally there will be outright fiction. This blog will be the documentation of a memeticity.

I won't lie. I am not smart, nor am I creative. I'm not a very good thinker, and I can't tell jokes. But what I do have is an internal monologue, and an exhibitionist compulsion to tell you all about it.
