Just watched the Six Feet Under series finale tonight with Ian. So, if you’re a fan and haven’t watched it yet or plan to watch the whole series someday soon, STOP NOW!!
And for the rest of you.
Wow. Holy shit. The episode in itself was great, but not jaw-dropping. It kept pace with this excellent last […]

Wrote this while in the car this weekend.
twenty three miles to madisonville
and nothing but road beneath me
blue sky, green grass
cocoon the car about me
nowhere to go but where
this road will take me
nowhere to go but where
this road will take me
home and far away again
time is never enough
the road is always
there to greet me
the road is […]

Wow. This guy doesn’t hold back talking about the problems fundamentalists cause in our world.
It’s time to stopy pussyfooting around the issue. Respecting someone’s beliefs and saying someone is wrong because of hateful fundamentalist beliefs are two completely compatible approaches. There is a limit to respecting your beliefs. Once you become an ignorant, self-centered, violence-inducing, […]

This is the first time I’ve seen this. Apparently our new proxy at work has a content filter on it to make sure I don’t go looking at anything inappropriate. I guess I’m not grown up enough to make that decision myself.
Now, the site in question was fleshbot so that’s probably what triggered it since […]

OMG! Thank goodness the Onion exists. I was almost in tears reading this, it’s so funny. With all the ignorant, burn the books bullshit going on about “intelligent design”, I really needed a good laugh.
I think if we teach intelligent design in schools alongside evolution, we should teach any and all belief systems as possible […]

Well, writing continues over on my “Creativity Palette” blog. Don’t worry, I won’t constantly keep linking to it shouting “read my stuff!”. Well, not constantly. Just every now and then.
No, seriously I’d love to hear feedback on what I do over there from any of you who are interested in writing or are aspiring […]

Well, before I jump into my big ol’ pit o’ gripe, I will say the new laptops are faster (usually) and I much, much prefer Outlook over Groupwise, and XP is far better than 2000.
Ok, that out of the way, there are little things that are really hacking me off! Random slowdowns, not as frequent […]

Today was the big day. I looked down at my odometer heading out of the house and saw the Honda was right at 100,000 miles! Wow. To think I’ve sat my butt down in that car and traveled that great of a distance. That’s just in six years! What could I have been doing with […]

Saw the play/musical Southern Baptist Sissies today with Ian, Chris, James, and Layton. The Uptown Players put it on, and it’s showing for another week or so. I believe they still have tickets for a couple of shows. Catch it if you can!
It’s another work by Del Shores, the creator of the fantastic Sordid Lives. […]

Just a short little story, the idea for which popped into my head the other day. Basically just a little campfire tale.
The Hitchhiker
The cool breeze felt good coming in through the open window of the ’68 Oldsmobile. The engine rumbled heartily as it cruised down highway 108 at 60 miles per hour. Ronny ran his […]
