In the popular parlance of the 1950’s, hipsters spoke a language of their own. Among the hyperbolical idioms and cryptic euphemisms, to “vomit on the table” meant to speak up, to get loud. In my brief experience with this life, I’ve found that too often some of the best ideas go unsaid, never to be heard for fear of embarrassment or ridicule. In the spirit of vomiting on the table, I titled this brand new blog of mine Vomit on the Page to adhere to the philosophy of speaking up.
I believe in public discourse and dinner table discussion. No one should ever be afraid of a topic; threatening topics are most dangerous when when left alone.
“To have something to say is a question of sleepless nights and worry and endless ratiocination of a subject – of endless trying to dig out of the essential truth, the essential justice.”
-F. Scott Fitzgerald
So begins my career as a blogger.
