Don’t we all think our own ideas are great? Of course, we have occasional moments of clarity wherein before pouring beer in the pancake batter we realize that IPAncakes are not the hot new trend. But, for the most part, we all tend to think we know best, at least within our own heads. When you vocalize or otherwise put an idea out into the world, that’s when it becomes subject to criticism. That’s when it may become apparent how badly beer mixes with pancakes. Better to just not.
This is quite the roundabout way to get to my point. What I’m saying is that I, like you, have many thoughts, and I, also like you, believe many of them to be quite good. Now we’re going to find out if that’s true because I’m going to put my ideas on the Internet. My intent is to provide you all with relevant and exciting marine science straight from academic journals, but in a format that’s entertaining and easy to digest. Feel free to let me know if I’m hitting that mark. Additionally, you can check out the R.A.D. as Hell section for marine-related articles from other publications that I think are super cool – plus stay tuned for other content soon!
I’m in no way saying that I’m anything close to an artist, but I’ve heard before that true artists can’t help but to create their art – whatever the medium may be. They’re compelled to create. Is that why The Rolling Stones are still around? Anyway, I’ve got ideas and they’re coming at you hot. I’m not a doctor, but I think this is how we save the world.
