At Last, My Blog Has a Name!

New name, who dis??


By Nathan Upchurch

Since I started writing here in earnest, I’ve been enchanted by the idea of having a proper name for my humble blog. I didn’t dare put too much thought into it until recently; the task seemed too intimidating. There’s a lot to think about after all: Do you choose something dry and professional, at risk of sounding pompous or grandiose? Something pithy, at risk of sounding too cutesy? Or something funny, at risk of not being taken seriously? Well, dear readers, by combining a five dollar word, a play on words, and some perhaps lightly distasteful humor, I’ve somehow managed to encapsulate all three options in arriving at a name for my blog that is, perhaps unfortunately, very me. Introducing: The Stochastic Bletherist!
