please don't read this blog

Last week I started writing for the Inside Belltown blog for the Seattle P-I. This is not that blog. Read that blog, not this one. I write for my employer's blog. Read that one too. This is a stealth blog. I keep it under the radar. It's not a neighborhood blog or a community service. It's not meant to be one of those widely read blogs by self-promoting knowledgeable people where every post gets hundreds of comments and starts long argumentative threads. This is not that. For one thing, I use Moveable Type to build this blog. I don't know how to use Moveable Type. I don't know how to make it easy to post comments. It's better that way. There's a saying, "Dance as if no one is watching". I don't dance. I write. On this blog I write whatever I want, as if no one is reading. It's better if I can believe no one is. I write my opinions. I'm a serious professional person, I'm not supposed to have opinions. Someone I might want to do business with might get offended. I need to be taken seriously. So please don't read this blog. I also get wonkish and long winded on some favorite obscure topics. No one wants to read wonkish navel-gazing. Sometimes I post pretty pictures. It's okay to admire the pretty pictures. But, seriously, don't read this blog. I'm telling you for your own good. Actually it's for my own good. Thank you for your consideration.
