The name of this blog comes from Shakespeare's "Much Ado About Nothing", quoted here:
Sigh no more, ladies, sigh no more
Men were deceivers ever;
One foot in sea, and one on shore,
To one thing constant never.
Then sigh not so,
But let them go,
And be you blithe and bonny,
Converting all your sound of woe
Into Hey nonny, nonny.
My goal in writing is to cover a broad range of subjects ("To one thing constant never") and to find humor ("Hey nonny, nonny") even on topics that ordinarily make me angry ("all your sound of woe").
I expect some posts will be superficial and worthless, serving only my self-interest. Others, I think, will be more revealing and thought-provoking.
You may find math, economics, philosophy, religion, politics, art, poetry, photography, astronomy, and more. These are my interests, and I want to share them in a manner that respects your interests above my own. I don't want to push this through email to my friends; I'd rather you pull it at your leisure.
So with that firmly established, let us begin.
