Egypt

Or, "How I Write Without Knowing Anything."

Let's have a brief rundown on that whole big thing in Egypt:
The president is a dictator and the people hate him. The people decide to just up and banish the guy from the country by force. They're very likely going to succeed. The U.S. government (and many other governments around the world) support the current regime.

I'd like to hear from you guys a bit about this one, actually, since I don't know too many details. From the bits I've heard, there's been a lot of cool looting and some mummies being beheaded and stuff, as there is in any good revolution...but I'm really more interested in the perspective of these revolutionaries, though. Anyone have any good bits of information they'd like to share?

I'll write about something that I actually know about tomorrow.

Ego

I feel that an introduction is as good a way to start as anything else, and an introduction doesn't need to be too overly elaborate as far as I can tell, so let me get right down to it:

You can call me Blasphemy, and this is where I will post my Blasphemous Lies.
These will not be just any rants. These Blasphemous Lies, in spite of their name, are going to be written based on absolute truths, and my opinions and interpretations of them. Now and again, I may also provide commentary to news stories or scientific articles of interest, but the primary concern here will be the creation of relatively short but meaningful expressions of what I, personally, consider to be truths too important to be put aside. If you're willing to listen, I'm willing to speak for far too long and wear out my welcome, so let's have a good time, shall we?

 Merry Blasphemy
