So who are you and what is this about?

Obviously, I am Jeremy Scharlack and this is my blog.

I got inspired to start this blog after I set up my friend Sam’s Blog. I have been reading lots of other blogs, mostly political, which will be listed on the sidebar soon and will greatly influence how I write.

I have divided this blog into three categories.

In Politics I will rant on our current situation. George Bush II and his war on Iraq have made me politically aware and concerned in a way I had never been before. I am horrified at our current war, everything leading up to it, and most policies Bush has enacted or tried to enact. I am reading a lot of political blogs recently and I plan on collecting ideas from them. Politically I am a libertarian leaning liberal; I have a strong belief in individual rights, but I believe there is a small roll for the government beyond simply enforcing laws.

In Tech I will talk about gadgets I have, tech news, and problems I run into. I have the naive hope that if I write about a problem I manage to solve, someone might find an answer to the same problem through a google search and save the time and hassle I went through. I like to add to the huge knowledge on the web. I also love talking about technology.

Misc, is, you guessed it, everything else. It might be about my personal life, particularly if I have an interesting anecdote to tell. However I don’t want to reveal to many boring or personal details about my life. I will also put things here that I find interesting or funny that don’t quite qualify as politics or tech. I will also but general entries such as this one here in Misc.
