1st Anniversary

Today marks the first anniversary of my Slaughterhouse.

Blogging was a strange idea to me. As I started looking at the blogs of friends and family I couldn't imagine myself taking the time to share my thoughts with the millions of strangers in cyberspace.

Around the end of the first week of April 2004 Mamamontezz set up the basics of my site. She was responsible for the general color scheme, the set up and the banner. On 11 April I posted my first entry about the pro troop/anti-war sentiment in our country.

Initially my site was focused on the Presidential elections and exposing John Kerry for the fraud he was. In between Kerry bashings I focused on the military. To this day most of my notable posts have something to do with the Troops, Patriotism or our government. I do occasionally share silly anecdotes or other pictures when I just don't have time for a great post.

Not to toot my own horn but I'd say my site has progressed quite a bit in the last 12 months. Though the appearance has (and will) change with time, the Slaughterhouse is still the Slaughterhouse. A place where I can vent about all things that bother me and all things I feel are important in this world.

I'd like to say a big thank you to Mamammontezz, Delftsman and the many, many other great bloggers who taught me the value of blogging.
