Welcome!

Welcome to Southwest Progress! If you don't know, I'm Neal (formerly of Neal 2028). The main reason I've started a new blog rather than using the old one is basically because I wanted a name change, kind of like Sean Combs Puff Daddy P. Diddy Diddy.

Please don't mind the mess that is the template here. I'll be perfecting it in the coming days (including adding many more links, and some more html stuff), and I'll be offering my first honest-to-God post a little later tonight.

I've had people ask me what happened with my old blog. Why did I just all of a sudden stop writing? Well, I've given several answers; I've been busy, I've been preoccupied with college, etc., etc. But the truth is pretty simple: I lost the urge to do it. I intended to come back before the November elections, but I just didn't. Now, I'll be back for all the fun that will be 2007, and of course the 2008 elections.

By the way, any feedback on the template (or anything else at all), please stick it in the comments section. I appreciate anything anybody wants to offer.

-Neal
