(#1) Blast-off

I am starting this after a conversation from my father, who usually has good advice. Now that I've set this whole thing up, however, I have nothing to write about. Well, that's not true. I have tons to write about. I just don't know where to begin or anything blog etiquette. For example, I was going to name this blog "Your Music Sucks" but that would be neither polite nor (necessarily) true. What kind of person with an idea of what is proper in the internet world would consider that name?
Me, that's who.
Anyway, the case remains that I don't have any particular subject to write about at the moment, but if I don't start this now, I will forget to and then another empty blog will be sitting in cyberspace, using up obscure Band lyrics for no good reason (I'm looking at you, treewithroots.blogspot.com). In the interest of being somewhat related to my title, I'll do my best to do a three-point deal every time I post. We will see how this goes.

As of August 24, 2009:

Life: is going okay. College is happening, and as far as I know it seems like it'll be okay. More on this later, surely.

Love: is alliterative and sounded okay next to "life." Also, I like it.

Classic rock: is undoubtedly my favorite music and should be yours, too. I'm not talking about the label that radio stations give music made before 1990 and, God forbid, Journey. I mean genuine classics that still have their appeal and meaning after forty years. Anyway, at the moment I am listening to "Tears of Rage" by The Band. This is the kind of classic I'm talking about. Also, my dad is trying to get me into Ronnie Lane. It is going well so far.
