To Offend or Not to Offend

I've been wrestling with whether or not I wanted to do this and finally just decided to jump in with both feet.

I tend to over think things - not just blogging, but pretty much everything and I'd like to try and stop doing that. By the time I've thought things over it's generally too late or I'm just so tired from all that thinking. Anyway, to the title of this first (hopefully not last) blog, one of the things I was overthinking was whether or not I would offend anyone while writing this blog. I certainly am not out to upset, hurt or anger anybody and will make every effort not to do that, but in the event that I do, I would like to apologize in advance - can I do that? Similar to doing jail time prior to robbing the store - it's just not done that way, or maybe it is and I just don't know about it? There was that movie with Tom Cruise in it where they could forsee if someone was going to commit a crime and arrested them based on that. I digress. I tend to do that a lot, but just stay with me because eventually I come full circle.

Back to my apology (in advance). When necessary names will be changed, sometimes places in order to protect the innocent but if I should offend anyone with anything I write, it's really for the greater good. Consider yourself a martyr for the cause. If it's any comfort, I tend to make fun of myself more. What cause you ask. I don't know exactly, but it will be a good one. Details will follow as I figure things out.

Bottom line here is, there might be times where I cross "the line", and I guess we'll all know what line that is by the comments made by the offendee... Geez I hope that doesn't happen.
