New for 2012: Ben's Bluster

Remember those tweaks I was talking about in my last post? Well here's one for 2012. A new series of short blogs that I hope I'll manage to stick to throughout the year.

I know, I know, many a post series has flowered and then died on the vine here, but I believe this time will be different. Primarily because I'll be using these posts as a form of therapy. 

On many an occasion I have been referred to as a grumpy young man. Normally of a pleasant disposition, watching television or reading the paper can sour my demeanour and result in longwinded rants. Rants that, once triggered, can't be stemmed until I have made everybody in the vicinity aware of the fact that humanity has begun a violent spiral into chaos and that X-Factor, mispronunciation or any other topic I happen to have been irked by is the cause. 

Rather than sit and stew, however, I thought it would ameliorate my blood pressure and entertain my site's visitors to post such rants as and when they happen. The result of this will be posts under the banner Ben's Bluster.

Starting with the next post on this site, these will be short and, I hope, enjoyable bursts of vitriol concerning a wide range of topics from popular music to politics.

I can feel the knots in my shoulders loosening already...
