rants defined

a given stream of thoughts occasionally cross my mind, which i may consider exciting or intriguing.  these will likely come across as a rant or a general rambling.  i know these can be annoying or exhausting to drag eyeballs across, so i'm going to tag these as a rant, so they can be selectively viewed by anyone out there.

and i'll consider this my first rant, although it's not technically a rant per se (is that redundant?), but i just want to tag something as a rant to set the standard, so to speak (should that be hyphenated?).  am i the only person that finds themselves bombarded with questions, daily, that could be searched and answered, but must be ignored because there's only so much time in a day?  mm.
