A random thought

As you know I have been thinking of a theme for this blog... Everywhere you look the suggestions are to use your blog to express your expertise. I have trouble thinking of a topic where I would consider myself even close to an expert.

Tonight I did happen to remember my bad music collection. Could this be the theme? We will have to see. It could be fun!

My bad music collection started with my Uncle sending me CDs for birthdays and Christmases. It has continued with several "helps" along the way. One particular story comes to mind:

While I was teaching I had an 8th grade student ask me what my favorite type of music was. For some unknown reason I told her it was polka.

When she came into my classroom the next day she promised she would help me find better music.

For a favorite pola artist of mine check out Frankie Yankovic

A show about nothing...

I have been thinking that my blog is on a track similar to the TV show Seinfeld. Without a theme this is rapidly remaining a blog about nothing. I have had several thoughts about possible themes, each quickly countered by a good reason to avoid that topic.
Here is at least a partial list:
· Work related: Do I really know enough to offer professional insight? No.
· Education: No longer actively teaching I am sure I would run out of insights quickly.
· Humor: hmmmm….that just seems dangerous
· Sports: I can’t name all the starters on any team I like. Obviously not a good start.
· My life: Am I really that interesting? This gets a “has possibilities” rating…I am different enough to be at least slightly interesting at times.


At this point any insights are welcome!
