Ms. Snark Welcomes the World!

Hello, World Wide Web!

Here I am!

For purposes not yet clear to me, I shall be known as Ms. Snark. Do not confuse me with Miss Snark, who, I hear, is a literary agent in New York.

I hate New York.

Well, I don't exactly hate New York, for how can one hate an entire city? Let's just say that I hate aspects of it.

I'm even less fond of the city I do live in--it's so damn provincial--but that's another matter entirely. But you'll never find out where I live, mainly because it's so unimportant to why I'm posting here.

Of course, Ms. Snark is not my real name, but you knew that already.

Snark, snark, snark--pretty much describes my mood these days. Also, I like the name Ms. Snark; it has a certain liberated and snide overtone.

Perhaps I will use this spot to blow off steam; I'm going to tell stories about myself that may be true or false, depending on my mood.

I love the internet.

Years ago, there was a New Yorker cartoon of a dog at a computer keyboard, talking to another dog:

"On the Internet, nobody knows you're a dog."

Bow, wow!

Love to all,

Ms. Snark
