A place for our friends; who needs Myspace?

That title is a bit misleading. In all honesty, I do use Myspace, though for the most part only to check out new bands and to keep in touch with people who refuse to use any of the other million forms of communication now available to us. This group blog, for instance, is a way for us to not only share any of our angry, amusing, and often absurd rants with each other but also with a wider audience. However, unlike Myspace, this site is purely devoted to our thoughts and is not cluttered with advertisements for dating or free ringtone websites, links to the profiles of cool new people, or inane bulletins posted by some lovable cretin you knew from high school. Basically, we're creating a place for our friends--for anyone who shares our feelings on the countless things that make the world go around--one that is not a part of a huge international conglomerate that wishes to brainwash its patrons into believing that their entire lives can be fulfilled in one place. Come for the slices of life, stay because those slices taste like they come from familiar recipes.
