Hey everyone or no one. This is my introductory post for a new blog that I’m going to try really hard to update on a regular basis. I find it difficult to write about myself in such a straightforward way, so hopefully this will be the first and only time I have to do this. Some background might give you context as to what this blog will be about, though.

My name is Brian Vazquez and I have a lot of different interests. Some you’ll share and others you won’t. I’m doubtful there’s a person out there who enjoys every single one of those interests. I’m hoping I can speak to some things you do like and maybe even rope you into reading about ones you’ve never considered before.

Some topics I’ll discuss in future posts:

  1. Books and Articles – If I read something and like it, I’ll write about it.
  2. Sports – I’m not going to give daily sports reports, but if I get the urge, I may write about the Carolina Hurricanes, the Boston Red Sox, the New York Giants or the Boston College Eagles.
  3. Cooking – Maybe I tried a new recipe and feel the need to share it and lucky you, you’ll read all about it.
  4. Beer – Yes, I’m one of those people. You know, the ones Budweiser decried in their Super Bowl Commercial.
  5. Scotch – This is just a higher alcohol, more expensive, infinitely worse for your liver version of beer. I like it.
  6. Tea – I’m no expert by any stretch of the imagination, but that never stopped anyone before.
  7. Restaurants and Bars – Taking photos of my food in a restaurant isn’t something I usually do, but if a place is really good I’ll want to give it my much coveted bump.
  8. TV and Movies – I’ve never written a review before, so I think I’ll start.
  9. Travel – I’m headed to Europe in May and like to go places, so add it to the list.
  10. Raw Denim – If you’re one of the initiated, this needs no explanation. If you’re not, there’s literally no suitable explanation I can give.
  11. General Men’s Fashion – I’m a guy who likes clothes and shoes. This in no way suggests I’m stylish or worth listening to about such things, just that I’ll talk about them.
  12. Life – I exercise. I occasionally play sports. I’ve taken up running, cycling and tennis. Sailing is fun. I recently bought a DSLR camera and a beginner’s violin. Summertime is gardening time. I’ve been to Disney World more times than I’ll admit. My point is, there’s always something to write about.

Nobody pays me to write about any of the products I may mention. If they ever do (which is doubtful), I’ll be sure to include that prominently because I’m not a corporate shill. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

Welcome to my head. Be sure to try the veal.
