Introductions are in order.

Hi there, nobody and everybody. I doubt that you will read this, whoever you may be, but I feel as if an introduction is in order, regardless of that fact. My name is Rodent Steve. Slightly chubby, slightly awesome superhero ninja-pirate-anteater from the planet Arganalamanalamanargakrunargatheria.

Not really. Bet I had you going, though.

Yes, the name of that planet was the result of a keyboard-related incident, one that should not have taken place. Yes, I am slightly chubby. I'm sure that by some people I am regarded as slightly awesome, or at least vaguely "swell." I'm 14 years old. People think I'm older. Don't know why. I'm not a ninja, or a pirate, or an anteater, but I'm a fan of T.M.N.T., Pirates of Dark Water, and Marc Brown's Arthur, so I suppose that I do embody those professions. Also, I've beat the original Ninja Gaiden games like...15 times, so I guess that makes me pretty 1337.

My name is Jonathan Ospa. You will notice that my profile, for the most part, will be completely blank. I feel that, if you are an attentive reader, you will know more about me from reading my blog than you will by reading my profile. Expect things such as Convention coverage (well, NYC-area convention coverage,) leftist political rants, philosophical discussions (which I expect each of you to take part in,) mundane accounts of day-to-day struggles, Treknobabble, Technobabble, Comic Book-based camaraderie, anything Sci-Fi, most things even vaguely geekish, and reviews of books, movies, and just about anything else.

Well, it's getting quite late now. Attentive readers of my blog will learn more if they simply read my blog. It's 3:21 AM and me without my caffeine. Well, I'm signing off...

Good evening.

*Scotty, one to beam up.*

EDIT: 5/26/08
I do realize that my first post was horrendously lame. Please don't be too harsh.
