So, I was going to have my first blog post explain the meaning of life, but a mere day after I registered this blog, it was marked as spam. This is because it had no posts. The reason it had no posts is because the meaning of life takes a long time to explain.
So instead, I'm going to change tactics here and instead have my first post be completely pointless. Together with the above story I think that makes some sort of symbolism, possibly related to life. Or... death. Yes, today on the television I heard Hillary Clinton give a rather disturbing answer to a debate question about using former presidents as U.S. emissaries:
"...When they're all together, representing our country, that sends a strong message. And I would look for a way to use all our former presidents..." (transcript).
I just want to say that I think that would be scary but also kind of cool.

And, good luck with the meaning of life!
Here's one very thought-provoking take on the issue online that you may enjoy considering:

Hm, this is more interesting than I thought at first from reading the silly opening paragraph. I will take a look at it later. It's looong.
Sending a zombie or corpse of a person who previously held the highest office in the land might be considered somewhat of a mixed message... On one hand it was the president. On the other hand I don't think it would be very good at picking the appropriate fork to use.
