I’ve been going through my downloads folder on my desktop computer containing all the files that I’ve, um, obtained perfectly legally, and I’ve run across some music that I sort of forgot about. Whatever happened to Tara McLean? Great voice, great songs, unique sound, and nowhere to be found. I first heard Tara in 1999… Continue reading Whatever Happened To…
On Being Poor
My very good friend, whom I’ve never met or spoken to, John Scalzi is an excellent writer. I cannot over state the influence he’s had and is having on my life. I’ve chosen him as the archetype for my chosen profession. There is no question in my mind that he will be regarded as one… Continue reading On Being Poor
Feelin’ Ill
Of course, since I boldly declared that I am now a writer, I got to spend the evening splitting my time between the couch and the bathroom. In fact, I am feeling so crappy that I won’t even get up to grab my laptop out of it’s case. So, check it out, my very first… Continue reading Feelin’ Ill
Getting the brain out was easy, the hard part was getting the brain out!
Today, I am a writer. I have a laptop, a blog, John Scalzi’s writing advice, and I just received my very own copy of the 2007 Writer’s Market Deluxe Edition. So it’s official, I am a writer. Please start all e-mails and comments with ‘Dear Mr Writer, Sir’. No, as a matter of fact, I… Continue reading Getting the brain out was easy, the hard part was getting the brain out!
These Ordinary Days
Have you ever been devastated? I used to think I understood what that meant until it happened to me. A little over a year ago, on March 1, 2006, I found my mother dead in her bedroom. My heart was broken, is broken. Before, I had girls reject me or dump me, and I thought… Continue reading These Ordinary Days
None like it HOT!
I’m a little late for the bandwagon, but everyone should see ‘An Inconvenient Truth‘. I don’t care what your politics are, just watch with an open mind. At the very least, Mr. Gore does a good job of explaining the problem and it’s significance. And where many Environmentalists advocate radical actions that will, frankly, never… Continue reading None like it HOT!
Of all the friends I’ve had…you’re the first.
It’s 11:00pm on a Saturday night. I have been sitting at my computer studying PHP and writing a template to make my website easier to update. I rule! I bet there a literally thousands of people that would like to trade lives with me right now.Well, the good news is that I have learned lots… Continue reading Of all the friends I’ve had…you’re the first.
Interesting. Mind numbingly interesting.
I’ve had insomnia all week, never getting more than 4 hours of sleep in a night. Therefore, my mind is wasted. Here’s a picture of my kitty. Enjoy.
If we don’t perform, in what sense do we have an act?
I want to take a minute to remind everybody how unfair life is. Today’s lesson: Wil Wheaton is a really decent guy who cares about people and how he affects the world. Yet, he is not an "A-list" celebrity and has, in fact, taken a lot of crap from people. Check out this post. See… Continue reading If we don’t perform, in what sense do we have an act?
Can’t Sleep…Clown Will Eat Me
It’s 1:00 in the morning and I cannot sleep. I blame the government. Let’s see…what’s been keeping me up? Okay, how about this: Do you remember in Science class in Elementary school when they taught us that water going down a drain twists counter-clockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise in the Southern hemisphere? No? … Continue reading Can’t Sleep…Clown Will Eat Me
