Do I ever listen to myself?
No.

I ramble, rant, rave, but rarely listen.

Should you listen to me?
No.

Check the title of this blog: I am, have been, and will be wrong.

Listen to me only when I'm less wrong than you are.

When I'm more wrong, ignore what I have to say.
and when I'm completely off base, use this as fodder for ridicule.
