In the beginning...(Good use of cliché, no?)

Hello Dear Reader,

Although Sir SpellCheque is not a pessimist, he sill realises that it is highly likely that no one will have read this debut post before reading any other posts on this blog. Therefore, it feels best to use this post as an introduction to why Sir SpellCheque exists and what this blog is likely to be rambling on about.

Sir SpellCheque (and the puppet master who controls this identity) likes to think of himself as a complex formula of a man who can easily adapt himself to even the most socially and intellectually taxing situations at the drop of a hat. Unfortunately for all concerned, the reality is far different. Sir SpellCheque is in fact a cut price version 1.0 humanoid with various uncooperative addons which form a multitude of clashing results.

One of these contradictions was despite being relatively good with technology, I was actually apathetic with the idea of blogging. It seemed pedantic and shallow, and besides only a few famous or important people seemed worthy of this shrine to individualism. However, a long and uncoordinated search displayed clearly that the barrier to entry was rather lower than anticipated. One didn't need to be rich, or a journalist, or even a human being to force one's opinions down an innocent web surfer's throat. It soon became clear that I was way, way behind the times, my misinformed impressions of blogging and blissful ignorance was putting me on par with luddites, dystopians and Tasmanians. The need to get with the times was urgent.

And so we reach the reason for being for this blog. Sir SpellCheque has noticed and read quite a few blogs and like a drunk at Crown milling around the Blackjack tables reckons that any old mug, no matter how disastrously unqualified, can give it a go with no potential downsides whatsoever. With this Sir SpellCheque jumps into the unknown with a agnostic prayer for all the innocent bytes and storage space at Google where this blog is hosted. May a supernatural power exist to save their souls.
