What "New World Order" is this? And why do I have to take notes?

I suppose I should explain myself, or at least my nomenclature — it's not entirely clear what I mean.

From the beginning this website was a phoenix, rising from the proverbial ashes (of a hard disk failure). A site reborn, with new found purpose. (Or lack of purpose.)

I set out ot create a website like used to be the norm. Well written (alright, who am I kidding — written with capitalization and spelling), eclectic, but above all, interesting. I set out to create something that was more artifice than diary, more journalistic than blogging.

I have so far failed, by my own admission (as well as anyone else who's nice enough to tell me the truth), to keep the promise to which the name would hold me. it's a grandiose promise of ideal rhetoric and deep thought, with not a little cynicism and practicality thrown in. ("Would you like fries with your universe?" is not exactly the next great rallying cry.)

So my site is finally accessible from the general Internet again. Hopefully that'll motivate me to update and write some more things for publication here. For now, feel free to tell me how much stuff isn't here and how much better it would all be if I actually wrote some more articles.

Well, changed the theme for the site, because I didn't really like the previous theme. Trying out some different content/view/publishing stuff for organizing the site, to hopefully make it less blog-like, for one, as, while there's nothing wrong with blogs, I'm not looking to be a blogger, and two, I'm trying to make the site useful as a resource and something to point people at for anything that I've written/done/wish I'd done.

Feedback is welcome, as always, and again, apologies to anyone with links to the old wordpress site.

I managed to figure out how to some of my older posts from "Conveniently Insane" (the blog that existed here before a harddrive crash wiped out somethings) because Facebook caches feeds you import for their Notes application. It's not quite as good as having a real backup, but it at least means I don't loose all that...uh...crap, really. But at least it's somewhere, as there are bits that I do want to keep around.

And for the record, I'm still not looking to be a blogger or maintain a blog, so that this happens to be blog-like is due to the fact that it was imported from a blog. Maybe I'll reformat the stuff that's worth it later, but for now, it's there. Uncategorized and unfiltered.

Notes on a New World Order is a collection of musings, essays, fiction, non-fiction, and whatever other media is available. The content is written by a team of one (me, Greg S.) and varies in scope, seriousness, and quality.

Browse around, comment, nag, tell me how wrong I am. Enjoy yourself. There's nothing worse than taking the world too seriously.
