Well here it goes...

Hello there, World. It's a pleasure to meet you, and I'm sure we'll be the best of friends. Now, down to business. Words. What are they? Are they just random combinations of stick figure diagrams? Or are they something more? Something deeper? What if I were to tell you that words are the essense of humanity. You'd think I'm some existential philosophical hippie dude with a long beard and bongo drums. Well, you're probably right (except for the beard thing). But maybe we all need to be a little "existential" to really get down to the binds and bones of it. It meaning language. To understand what we say, we have to go outside ourselves and listen. We have to understand what we're talking about and why it came out of our mouths (and despite what a myriad of apologetic husbands might say, everything we say has a purpose). And that's what this blog is for, to understand that purpose. To understand why certain words are put together and just what's so beautifully poetic about those combinations. I invite anybody and everybody to come and explore this magical world with me. It will surely be a journey. Till next time, GC Werthmann
