Hello, and welcome. My name is Rich and I am the other primary voice of The Golden Gate. (We may feature other voices on here as guestbloggers from time to time. But that’s down the road a piece.) Right now, it’s my turn to step to the microphone…
> boomp, boomp< Is this thing on?
So, what are we up to here? Well, Jason’s done a good job of setting the tone thus far. You can look over there at the “Categories” sidebar and see the kinds of things we’re planning to talk about on a regular basis. So, stay tuned. This blog will be be a work in progress, and we’ve got our sleeves rolled up, and we’re rarin’ to go. We think you’re gonna dig what we’ve got in store.
All I’ll add at this point is that we tend to get real uneasy around orthodoxies and “given limits.” Both Jason and I are big on freedom and possibility. That said, we don’t always see everything eye to eye.
And that’s cool. Because, y’know, monoculture is inherently unhealthy and all that.
What else about me? I am a fifth-generation San Franciscan, and one of my particular areas of interest is the often zany and madcap world of San Francisco politics and culture.
Oh yes — and baseball. I’m real big on baseball. So, you will undoubtedly get the occasional baseball anecdote or metaphor from me.
Okay, that’s enough talking about myself, for now. Res ipsa loquitur, and all that.
