Welcome...Again!

Welcome to the Finer Things Blog!

Originally titled, Faulty Diction
, the blog was created to be a repository for any kind of writing I did. The blog worked well in that capacity, but I never referenced it for ideas as much as I had intended. Instead of scrapping what I believe to be an ingeniously titled blog, I am repurposing it to focus specifically on art and culture. The content will mainly consist of my trademark witty rhetoric, along with thought provoking discussions on subjects as varied as comedy, literature, music, and movies.

The blog's new title is inspired by an episode of The Office in which Pam, Oscar, and Toby start an exclusive club that discusses art and literature during lunch break. The name of the club is called, The Finer Things Club. Unlike their club, however, there will be no discussion of Angela's Ashes, though I hold nothing against Frank McCourt. If you would like to watch the hilarity of The Office and, specifcally, the episode from which the blog name is inspired, please watch the sixth episode of the fourth season titled, "Branch Wars."

Also, please do not think that my promise to, "discuss and promote the finer things in life" means that this blog will in any way resemble the cutesy pretension of Gwyneth Paltrow's blog, GOOP.
