I am introducing a new feature here. My buddy (and noted thinker) Peter has been kind enough to offer his large brain and copious vocabulary to my humble blog. We will be doing a point/counterpoint type thing, in which Pete will say something ridiculous and I will have to give him a verbal beat down. And then he will try to return the favor. Since Peter is a lot smarter than I am, he graciously agreed to handicap himself by being politically liberal. We are finalizing the first topic right now and trying to decide who goes first (taking the pro-something position).
So, if in the next few days you happen to read some words on my blog that you have to look up in the dictionary, do not be alarmed. It's just Peter trying to compensate for his handicap.
