What is a Pensieve?

Welcome one and all to the Captain's Chronicles, by yours truly... a blog inspired by my own isatiable need to have my name in print on the internet... I plan to pour out thoughtless, meandering posts on this site, just to get them out of my head... kind of like my own personal "Pensieve", a la Albus Dumbledore of Harry Potter fame... whoops... sorry... too early for a children's book reference?

Anyway... I'll be back later with thoughts only I could come up with...
