Enter, stage right

After several years of reading a plethora of other blogs, I’ve finally decided that the blogosphere is still not big enough. It needs one more. So please welcome (drum roll, please) Poppypundit.

Who is Poppypundit? Domestically, he is a husband, father, and grandfather, so he has a keen interest in the world he leaves behind to his family. Spiritually, he is a Christian, although difficult to pigeonhole. Politically, he is a conservative Republican, with a dash of libertarianism tossed in to add some spice. Geographically, he is a Midwesterner, with proud Texas roots. Professionally, he is a technical writer, so he digs the geeky stuff. As you can tell, there’s opportunity for all sorts of biases and opinions here.

Expect original commentary on current events, with a lot of links to other items of interest. A few personal details will occasionally find their way in, but not enough to bore the reader. (Okay, my mom thinks this is a recipe for boredom in itself, but she’ll just have to deal with it.)

Finally, it wouldn’t be a real blog if it didn’t generate comments. So feel free to jump in. Just keep it clean.
