Internecine

I've always liked that word. It definitely sounds like something much more pleasant than it actually is.
It is one of those words I always try to work into a sentence whenever I can, ever since I learned it studying for the SATs back in the day.

Its being thrown around so much these days (in the coverage of the presidential race) its not even funny. Obama and Clinton in internecine battle for convention delegates. McCain in internecine struggle with the far right. I'm not going anywhere with this, its just funny.

I've been going through my mind all day trying to come up with a theme or purpose for this blog. I definitely have no shortage of opinions, and its nice to have an outlet to express them, although I want to spare myself the time if its not going to be original or fresh or purposeful. I don't want to just rehash obvious shit or stuff other people think, plus I don't really have the time to draft really crafted out editorials and stuff.

I think its just gonna be a daily round-up of the news and events from the day, and my thoughts on them. Kinda like Keith Olbermann's Countdown show on MSNBC.

Starting tomorrow though :) I'm tired as hell, so all the talk of the eclipse, or McCain's alleged affair (by the way, ewwww, gross) or the Champions League, will have to wait till another day.
