This won’t be a site for butterflies and rainbows, although you might occasionally find a reference to kittens, in fact, I’ll start by saying that Rainbow Kitten Surprise is a great ensemble – you should check them out here. No, this site is a proof, a composition, an on-going essay on the human experience. The verdict is still out, but it’s looking like life is pretty awful, cold, barren, and unencouraging (thus, the title of this site). There are moments of humor, warmth, and encouragement (if not I would have called this site, “bleak.com”, but those rare instants of hope and cheer are distractions from the fact that life is suffering, disappointment, and isolation. I hope to use this site as a way to prove the previous two statements. A lot of what will be posted will be my analysis of current events, pop-culture, and politics in America. Occasionally, I’ll comment on world affairs, but frankly, I’m not informed enough to share my opinions on those issues. As I start my 44th year of existence as an American, I’ve come to understand that the average person in this country doesn’t have a shot in hell in improving their situation. The American Dream is dead – if it ever existed anyway.
