Greetings from the North Star State

As a newbie to regular blogging, I wanted to take this opportunity to introduce myself. There are many things that can describe me -- lawyer, father, spouse, Quaker, counselor, Italian-American, community member, lover of good music, bicycle rider, amateur guitar player, progressive (in the political and social sense), poet, native New Yorker now living in Minnesota. I wanted to write this blog as a forum for my various ruminations on life, culture, politics and the state of our world. As a member of Gen X (and as someone who is staring down his 40th birthday in the headlights next year), I think I can offer the perspective of someone who has lived on earth long enough to have seen some things before, but not so long that I've become jaded by them.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope my entries reward your time and provide some food for thought.

Hey there Steve, Dom here. I just received your email announcing your new blog. I am so excited for you. You definitely have some great thoughts to share on many matters, as the conversations we've had in the past can attest. I'll be checking in and commenting as often as I can. Hope you and your family are doing well.

Yes -- welcome to the blogosphere, Steve. I've found it to be a lot of fun, and some work, and have made good friends with people I haven't met in person yet.

It doesn't exactly make up for not being able to see you more often, but it might help. . . .
