Occam's Razor: the principle that entities should not be multiplied more than necessary; the simplest of two competing theories is to be preferred

And so it begins
On the off chance that anyone ever finds this blog, here's the deal. I needed a name for my blog. And I needed it quickly because BlogSpot asked me for a name and I didn't have a week to decide. And it had to be a good name. Okay, well, it had to be not an incredibly bad name. So I'm thinking, "Must ... get ... blog ... name" at which point my eyes fall on the cartoon about Occam's Razor that I have posted on my bulletin board in front of me. I've always loved Occam's Razor. I mean, I love the concept. But mostly I love the name. It has the word "razor" in it, so already you're winning. Hence my blog name. So welcome to The Razor. Occam's Razor ... applied to life.
