About this blog
When I started this blog it was mostly for political rants. I have created a new blog called Deedon’s Blog for the political stuff and this blog will now be just a place for me to write about things on my mind. Silly things, sometimes, not so silly other times. But not political. The range of subjects may be wide spread. Some, hopefully, will be humorous. Others will be there to get you to think about things you may not think of much. . . but perhaps you should. For the political stuff, go to www.deedonsblog.com.
About me
My name is David Deedon and I have had a number of nicknames over the years. Most I did not like. One that I did like was Derby. Prior to starting this blog, I have not been called Derby for a very long time. However, since David is such a common name, I have decided to use Derby for my username on this blog.

Please note
This is a moderated blog with three rules:
1) Language must be kept clean.
2) No spam will be allowed.
3) Do not write all or a major portion of your comment in Capitol letters (uppercase).
I reserve the right to edit, not post, or delete any comment violating those three simple rules. Repeated offenders will be banned. My blog, my rules. I will not ban comments just because they disagree with my point of view. In fact, opposing views are welcome.
