Let me make one definitive statement before I continue: I do not consider myself an expert in remotely anything. There is not one subject that I can categorically state that I am all knowledgeable in.
I have my interests, sure. Although my grounding in each of these would fall considerably short were they to become an Olympic sport overnight. For those of you in the know, I’m a fan of Doctor Who - A Big fan, hence the name of my unfortunately bare website - but I couldn’t tell you who played third Silurian from the left in ‘Warriors of the Deep’, or which story production code would be listed as 7M (It’s the curse of Fenric apparently). Ask anyone I know however, and they would ream off that information with so much speed and depth of knowledge you’d think you were talking to HAL 9000. And while I can bore my girlfriend for hours on end talking about the stories of Alan Moore, or why Grant Morrison’s run on Doom Patrol were the best era of the team, put me alongside someone that actually knows what they’re talking about and I’m able to converse with them about as successfully as your typical garden slug.
The point I’m trying to make – trust me, there is one – is that I don’t consider myself qualified in any way shape or form to comment with authority on anything. (This is my first blog - I’ve never been much into keeping a diary - and it could dry up at any point if I don’t feel I have anything to say, or I have a hangover.) I’m not what you would call important, I have no great job, no outstanding talent, I’m not rich, a university professor or B-list celebrity, and I don’t claim to have any profound insight into life. I’m just an average person, living an average life, making average observations on things. That’s why the blog title is what it is. Thank you for reading.
