As a semi-human who sits in front of a computer for the better part of my time awake each day (and another good part while I’m asleep), I peruse a lot of blogs. I used to try and limit the number of sites I’d hit in a given day because I just don’t have that good of an organization system. …
Grrr, cold.
I was reminded of something a short while ago when I went to fill my car up with gas: I freakin’ hate the cold! Sure, I’ve never lived anywhere where it was lovely and semi-tropical all the time, but I have a great appreciation for such climes. Today, as the “arctic chill” (not a new flavor of Gatorade) descends upon …
Apparently some music came out in 2009
I really thought I was going to take the opportunity of having some free time over the past couple of weeks to do some writing, but, true to my slacker nature, I sat on my ass and didn’t do a damn thing. Now, 2010 is upon us and zipping itself along to becoming as much a memory as 2009. Since …
2010? Seriously?
I’ve barely gotten used to writing 200X on the few things I actually have to date and now I’ve got one less zero to worry about (well, come 2011 I will). This, of course, makes me wax nostalgic about the last ten years and all the things that happened in them. With almost the same fervor that I wanted 2001 …
Do not jack with my jawbreakers!
I’m a candy junkie. Oddly enough, however, my habit did not form until I was well into my 20’s. I’m almost convinced that it’s related to my body’s craving for alcohol, but I can’t prove anything. Anyway, I loves me some candy, and, therefore, I can motor through a crapload of the stuff if given the opportunity. On several occasions …
I Gotta Be Me
As you have either known for a long time, or have just figured out from reading my little diatribes, I’m an odd fellow. Strike that, I’m almost downright weird. I find great comfort in individuality and always have. Being weird isn’t a new thing for me; I’ve been weird just about all of my life. Just ask my Mother, she’d …
The Legend of Pao’ !Mo-Loki Keeble Drax
Note: I wrote this back in April 2006 and stumbled across it this morning and thought I’d share it here. I believe it was an exercise in attempting to prove that if you are willing to make up some pretty obnoxious names, anyone can be a fantasy writer. In the steppes outside the great hidden city lies a great temple. …
Vulgarity vs. the State of Texas
I’m vulgar. Well, that’s moderately common knowledge, but, according to the State of Texas, I’m officially vulgar. This all started a few weeks ago. A company by the name of MyPlates.com was given a renewal by Texas to handle vanity license plates with a whole bevy of new designs that look about a bajillion times better than the piece of crap …
Murrrrrrrrrr… Ciao!
I think at some point in their development, every little boy just knowsthat someday he’ll grow up and ride a motorcycle. Maybe it’s the steady influx of heroes like Evel Knievel, Ponch and Jon of CHiPs or the Hell’s Angels, but it seems like there were a lot of tykes who were just ready as hell to get out on …
Gimmee, Gimmee, Gimmee!
I’m a horribly hard person to buy presents for. First off, I generally buy whatever I get a hankerin’ for and nip the whole concept of waiting to receive something totally in the bud. I’m all about the instant gratification. I know, I know, patience is a virtue and all that shit, but I really suck at it. Since I’m …
