So This Is The 21st Century?

Well, the Candyman has reached the next stop on his journey into the 21st Century: My Blog. After beginning the trip at the turn of the century (6 years ago) by receiving a CD player, I then began to replace the favorites of my 200 or so albums (remember vinyl discs?) with CDs. Now that I am about 50% there, I see it's time to consider an ipod. It's all too fast. After all, the Candyman just last year broke down and got a cell phone! Can cable TV be far behind? I must thank my good friend, Kevin K., whose "pajama-fishing" blogspot inspired me to begin Candy Cane Beach. Always one for writing, I thought it a breakthrough when I started to use Microsoft Word (late 90s, for me) and realized I didn't need to use Wite-Out. (By the way, why don't they use the "h" in that word?) Now that I have a blog (speaking of words...) I suppose this is just the next step. I am proud to be part of the Blogosphere! Take me to your blog leader! I have no idea what to expect from Candy Cane Beach. I assume it will be random musings, but not so random that it bores the tears out of you! After all, you could care less about the ingrown toenail I may have removed or the fact that I can't stop the hair growing out of my ears (although they sometimes affect the mood I'm in on any given day). All in all, I hope this blog is as interesting to read as it is to write. The Candyman feels so literary. Do you?
