So, here it is...

I've recently discovered Richmond, Virginia's extensive local news blog network (collected at RVAnews) and I've spent a lot of time there and other related blogs. My wife also has a couple of blogs b/c she's downright creative and awesome (Galaxy Girl Radio, MonkeyDog Studio). So I guess I've realized how much is out there, and I'm feeling both jealous and a little left out.

So I went ahead and set up this little production. We'll see how it goes.

The big question: if another random person starts another blog that no-one sees, does it really matter? I hope it'll be interesting enough. Just getting started, so I'll add more information soon about why I'm bothering with this.

To explain the name real quick: I'm a family physician working in Richmond, VA at a medical center which exists to provide care to underserved and underprivileged communities. I've spent my medical career to date in medically underserved settings (in the U.S. and abroad). Hopefully I've learned something along the way, and hopefully I can pass along some interesting or useful thoughts/opinions/insights.

I'm kind of amazed no-one had taken this URL yet...
