You may be curious about the name of this blog. Well, does anyone remember Joe Pyne. He was one of the first well-known national talk show hosts. I think he worked out of the San Francisco area during the '60's. He didn't take phone calls. I think his show was pre-recorded. And one of his specialties was antagonizing his guests.
For some reason, as a teen-ager, I enjoyed listening to him. And he would end every show by saying, "This is Joe Pine. Thanks for listening, and straight ahead!"
I loved that ending! For me, it suggested a straightforward style that wasn't intimidated by anything or anybody. I kind of adopted that line myself--especially during my college days. And from time to time, I would come back to it! That's what I want this blog to be--straightforward and clear! Of course, it won't all be deadly serious or confrontational. But I hope it will be----Straight ahead!
Straight ahead! See my blog at: www.noblindbluff.blogspot.com

I read through some of your blog, and have enjoyed it. Glad you popped by mine. I'll definitely come back for more visits.
Oh, by the way, I blog about emotional recovery at "eirenemaker", and that's where you visited, but also blog my day to day stuff at 3forward2back.
