The Rational Post

ROTTERDAM--We're going to try very hard to remain ridiculously serious in this blog. As in, so serious you can't tell for sure that we're being serious because of the gravity of our seriousness. It will weigh upon you, keep you up at night, our seriousness will.

But before we get serious, let's talk about the purpose of this blog. This blog, The Rational Post, is intended to within a week become a serious rival of The National Post (have you heard of them? They're rather inconsequential when compared to The Rational Post--we're a really big deal). Anyway, we'll work hard to bring you an article every day from news, present whatever societal ill it displays, and attempt to write a solution to that ill. By reading our blogs, you will literally become a better person as you do, slowly becoming less like you and more like me and, trust me, I'm who you want to be.

News is objective. We, by contrast, are not.
