I bid you. . . welcome!

Hello, ladies and gentlemen!  I suppose an introduction is in order.  My name is Frederick Frog, and I'm the co-creator of Blunderbuss.  The website, not the weapon.  I'm pleased to see you, and hope to see you again many times over.

What is Blunderbuss?  Well, all sorts of things.  We love movies.  We love video games.  We love music.  Fairly standard blogging material, to be sure.  But we also have an interest in classic literature.  Quantum physics.  The love life of Mongolian warlords.  The eyebrows of the world's most famous dentists.  And the price of tea in China. . .  in the year 3007AD.

Look - I'm just a Frog with a blog.  Our kind has a a traditionally shaky relationship with humanity, dating back to the so called "Biblical Plagues" of Ancient Egypt (Really, we'd just heard that that's where all the flies and locusts were gonna be.  Honest!).  Since then there's been a lot of frog oppression, from the carcasses used in science class, to the restaurants using our legs as entrees.  Thankfully, high profile celebrities such as Kermit and Jabba the Hutt have helped to bridge the gap between our species.  We've got thoughts and opinions that we'd like you to hear. . .  and you may find out that they're not so different from your own.

Whatever we write about, be it politics or poetry, our main goal here is for it to be fun.  Even if it's about a subject you know inside and out, we hope to look at it from a new angle.  There are so many weird and wonderful things happening around us all the time.  Sometimes you just gotta stop and smell the swamp gas.
