Mindless

It’s been nearly three years since I last maintained a blog, and I feel there’s no time than the present to restart this old hobby of mine. My original fascination stemmed from the fact that I needed a venue to express my thoughts – I simply couldn’t keep them vaulted for my whole life. The site became somewhat popular (nothing like MillionDollarJourney.com), but it was followed by many of my close friends, and even some folks in the States and back in India. I advertised the shit out of it as well – for what purpose? None that I can recollect.

The reason I’m restarting now, after such a long hiatus, is because… well, other than a conceited reason, why else would anyone do something like this? There are a couple reasons that come to mind, and I know at some point I’ll want to spin off the sections into their own sites, but what the hell? You have to start somewhere. First, I’m trying to get back in shape, so I plan on posting my progress online – at least this way I’ll feel that I’m reporting to someone; perhaps it’ll give me the extra boost that I need. Also, I’m a huge movie buff, and I know there are enough reviewers out there in the ether, but I’ve watched enough movies where the reviews just weren’t accurate (i.e. The Cohen Brothers). I hope to put my two cents out there, so if someone has similar tastes, they’ll know what to watch and what to stay away from. Finally, I love to travel, so I’ll throw in my opinions/reviews on where to go and what to do. Oh yeah, and then obviously there’ll be mindless ramblings of some guy.
