Hello everybody.  This is my first-ever post.  There was a time, not too long ago, when I would have laughed out loud over the notion of creating a blog.  But through the advice of a good friend, I've decided to give it a shot.  Why not?  At the very least, I get to practice my typing skills and all my words get lost to an audience of zero.  At best, I'll be able to share some articles and thoughts that hopefully will be helpful to people.  I am a physical therapist by profession, and that will be the main tread throughout my postings.  However, I'm also interested in healthcare, politics, sports, and a variety of other things.  I imagine that random articles may pop up that inspire me to post and comment.  This will be a work in progress, and I'm looking forward to seeing where this takes me.  I hope you enjoy it!
