A few months ago, I made the decision to submerge a few entries for the sake of propriety. I was employing this weblog as an example of writing competence and I wanted the work to speak for itself without the burden of political prejudice. However, those who needed to see with clear eyes have seen …
It was my assumption that I had it somewhere, but I really didn’t. After all, I’ve had that collection for quite awhile, so it would only make sense, yes? But no … I was wrong. I’ve talked about Neil Gaiman previously and on many occasions. Obviously, at least to me, he is well worth mentioning. …
It’s a day to lower your heads, ladies and gents. Hold each other’s hands and say comforting words to one another. Words like: “You can’t drown, you fool, you’re immortal!” or “Do you exshpect me to talk?!?” or “That’sh the Chicago way, and that’sh how you get Capone!” or “You’re the Man now, dawg!” After …
Time is fleeting. You have only so much time, so make the most of it. For some of you, this time is a mere week, while others have a slightly larger window. Regardless, this is a matter that affects every single one of us, even those of you living beyond our borders, so please … …
It had grown too far, like an untended vine. So I trimmed it back, quite severely actually. Cut from 85 items to a mere 50, my Amazon Wish List is much easier to maintain. Maybe you should do the same? On a not really related note, I’ve been undergoing a renewed interest in comic books, …
It just warms the cavernous cockles of my intake manifold heart to hear the news. Once again, two of our fellow human beings have stepped forward to reassure us that the holy shall remain holy and all is right with the world. So thank you, Britney. Thank you, Whatever-Your-Name-Is-And-Didn’t-You-Just-Have-A-Baby-With-Some-Other-Girl-Dancer-Guy. By your brilliant example, we shall …
If so inclined, please wander over to JIVE Magazine and read my newest feature: Everyday Superhero – A Jack Emmert Interview. Who the heck is Jack Emmert? He’s the remarkably well-read demigod of geekery behind the success of City of Heroes. Even if you have little to no interest in online roleplaying games, I think …
Just stepped outside, for only a second. There’s no rain yet, but it’s coming. The wind has sent ambassadors of intent, however. Leaves are trembling against each other, making a sound like a hundred rusty tambourines. I can only imagine what it must sound like … what it must feel like … what it must …
With all the bluster and fuss about swift boats and national guard records, it is really hard to keep track of the actual mechanics of the presidential campaign. It’s a wonder that either candidate has any idea where they are at any given time. Bush or Kerry: “Excuse me, sir, but do you know where …
Getting your picture in the paper is just the coolest thing. For me, it has happened a handful of times. When I was small, there were Cub Scout functions, vacation bible school photos, and one occasion involving a huge paper mache turkey filled with canned goods. In every case, I’d save our own family paper …
