A New Beginning

I have started this blog for a number of reasons. First, I want to prove to my son Tom that I may not quite be as stupid as he thinks I am. Second, I want to comment on disability related topics I see in the news that have a skewed perpective. Third, I am impressed with disability related blogs and want to add my views with regard to the social implications of disability. Fourth, I want to my name and work to become more public so when my book, Bad Cripple: A Protest from an Invisible Man, is published next year it will sell, sell, sell.
