Vegetables and Intellect

You may think that "Smarter Than Celery" is an interesting name for a blog. Contrary to what some may think I am not engaging in vegetable profiling. I guess it all goes back to High School when I got in a fight with another student. It didn't get to actual fisticuffs because I engaged him with taunts and verbal barrages such as:
GotDesign: "You are so stupid..."
Student: "Oh, really?"
GotDesign: "Yeah. You have the intellectual capacity of a small, brown soap dish."
Student: "What?" (Insert blank expression)
GotDesign: "See? You don't have the brainwave activity to lightly toast bread."
Student: "What do you mean?" (Again with the vacant expression)
GotDesign: "Game, set, and match!" (Walks away)
This style of fighting (originated by a very young Bruce Lee ...no, really) kept me from getting pummeled too frequently.

I plan to post my pontifications here for all to read. You may think this is a vain activity and I guess it might be. But, you see, I had a previous blog -- GotDesign -- where I had garnered a good deal of fame due to the attentions of radio talkshow host Hugh Hewitt. Hugh actually selected my GotDesign blog as one of his Blogs of the Month. But I let my posting fall off and pretty much lost my audience. Well, what do you expect? I was unemployed for just over 5 months -- my attentions were obviously directed elsewhere. So now I am starting anew blog in hopes of getting back on the horse, so to speak.

Anyway, I would greatly appreciate any comments you would care leave. Personally, I thrive on dialog and debate. So, join the fun.
