Introducing Scriblerus!

I've been floating around the blogosphere for some time, but this is my first, serious effort.
And I had initially intended to wait until I heard back from the others, but I'd like to introduce the concept behind this blog, and I may as well introduce myself while I'm at it. The others (there are six of us) will be by later to introduce themselves.
The intention behind DCC is to have sort of a buffet of topics to choose from for the authors and readers. I was quite serious when I said anything goes here--I like politics and such, but one of my fellows is interested in anime, and heavens knows how often she'll post about that.

I'm currently a college student attending my local community college before I transfer to my university. I intend to get my BA in economics, with a specialization in international economics, before moving on to law school for international business.
As I indicated, I'm interested in politics. But a more apt thing to say is that I'm interested in nearly everything--music, photography, writing, technology, politics, science, art, fashion, antiques--you name it, I'll probably like it.
So there you have it--a brief description of Scriblerus!

Dingbots, Critters and Clanks!

This the first attempt of the group of people who will be blogging here to write together. We'll each introduce ourselves later.
This is Dingbots, Critters and Clanks, a blog about anything and everything, from politics and art to everyday life. Hopefully, even though we all have busy lives (and very different schedules) there will be at least one new post every day.
Which, although several of us appreciate the webcomic Girl Genius (and it was from there that our name was inspired), we are in no way affiliated with either Studio Foglio or Girl Genius. We claim for copyright over any materials therein, and do not intend to violate copyright of the Foglios.
Speaking of copyright, the Dingbot is copyrighted to Åsa Hedman. She is kind enough to let us use it, is all.
