Inaugural Post

I'm not really sure why I'm doing this again. I made a blog a while ago but quickly abandoned it. Hopefully this one will be longer lived.

Anyway, its name comes from A Counterblaste to Tobacco, written in 1604 by King James I of England. I was always enamored of the word "Counterblaste", but the blog titles "Counterblaste" and "Counterblast" are both reserved. "Counterblasted" sounded cool, though, so I've adopted it as a title.

What will this blog be about? Good question. I do not have a direct answer, but it will, as the "About Me" paragraph suggests, "likely concern [my interests]."
