Will You (ab)Use My Brain if I Pay You?

As a new blog owner, I couldn’t be “happier” to share this “amazing” opportunity with all of you.  Blogging allows me to express myself over news, events, and situations that would take a rather long conversation to achieve in person.  Personal conversations are great and may provide more value than reading a blog, but it’s not in every day conversation …
