My first blog was on June 7th, 2005, and I had accumulated a lot of useless blogs so I deleted them. I'll be creating some new blogs about The X-Files and Lost, along with many others. Another things, I'll try to start using consistency in my posts, italicizing all movies, television shows, and the episode names.
