First tine for a fork inspector

Hi, I'm sixty years old and have never written a blog.
(Wasn't Steve McQueen in a movie called, The Blog...?)
:-)) Honk, if you're old enough to know why that might be funny.

I don't know what to write in a blog. I'd rather write books that I carefully craft to be funny, charming, quirky, etc.
