If I could just say a few words...I'd be a better blogger.

Dear Reader,

Good evening, and welcome to our cozy new corner of the Internets, named in homage to the lovable yet tragically unfunny Muppets segments from the first couple of seasons of Saturday Night Live.






Here in the Land of Gorch, we'll be posting about the things nearest and dearest to our hearts, including but not limited to:
  • Opera
  • Baseball
  • ...
Well, that's about all we can think of at the moment, but there must be something out there we're missing. Anyway, do you remember back in middle and high school, when on the first day you would have to fill out six different note cards with your name, phone number, and some inane tidbit about yourself ("Mom says I was raised in the forest by a pack of wild sandpipers!"), just so the teachers could feel like you had a warm, personal relationship without actually having to talk to you or acknowledge your existence? Well, consider this our 3"x5" rectangle of unextraordinary, impersonal introduction. As the summer progresses, we'll be giving periodic updates as to our location and employment situation, updates on the regularly scheduled baseball season (already in progress), and insight and observation on the world around us (like that Jerry Seinfeld! The kids will love it!). And now we'll leave you with what we all came here to see, hardcore nudity!
