<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Hello. My name is Wildy and I am a blogger. I mean, I used to
be, but I intend to be once again. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; vertical-align: middle;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">I spent eight years writing the wildly popular Wildy's World.
Okay, perhaps not wildly popular but decently respected by the independent
music community. I completely overdid it for a few years and managed to turn a
really fun hobby into something I felt increasingly obligated to do and
resentful of. Smart, eh?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; vertical-align: middle;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">So I loved it for the first five years, and pretended to love it
for the next three because I couldn't admit to myself that I didn't enjoy it
anymore. Don't get me wrong. I love music. I love writing about music. I
just became incredibly burned out after 3,000+ reviews and endless press
releases touting the next big thing. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; vertical-align: middle;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">I made some great friends and acquaintances through the process,
but it came time to put the old blog away. After nearly a year of not really
writing I find myself hungry to do so once again. I just couldn't go back to
the same old playground. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; vertical-align: middle;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">You might be asking yourself by now, "Who the hell is this
guy and why is he telling us his life story?" That's okay. Ask
rhetorical questions. I am writing this for me. If I happen to entertain,
provoke, inform or otherwise inspire anyone in the process, that's gravy. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; vertical-align: middle;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Here I will talk about music. I will talk about sports and
politics and human issues and family and philosophy and whatever else comes to
mind. Don't expect a regular format or schedule. I'm here on my own dime and on
my time. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; vertical-align: middle;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p>I</o:p></span><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> will continue to throw in the occasional music review if it's
something I like or feel compelled to tell you about. The same goes for movies
or shows or anything else that catches my attention. Your comments are always
welcome. I will moderate comments to filter out disrespectful language, but
honest disagreement is always welcome. Name calling and put downs will send
your comments to the circular file. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Because I said
so. </span></div>
