  • bask in the glory

    today i get to go bask in the glory of our judicial system. or maybe i am giving a visit to traffic court more spark than it deserves. either way, by 2pm i will know if i have to pay fulton county $75 or not.

  • DC2K (who are they?)

    If you have taken a look at the photos, then you have an idea of the sights one might behold at DragonCon. To give you a further idea, I think a list is in order. Entitle this The Things I Saw (yeah, originality is running like water from a porcelain tap this morning, let me…
