I Love You Too!

So I get up this morning to tweak my template a little and see that I've gone over 1500 views of my site. I'm tickled to see people checking it out! I'm humbled more than anything. I hope everyone enjoys the content and continues to check me out.

I haven't posted much of the in's and out's of my life lately, but I'll try to post somewhat of a recap.

  • Yesterday we went to visit the inlaws at the campground. They were holding some kind of a hippy VW Busfest because there were a hundred of them there complete with fat, aging baby boomers..I mean hippies. It was really cool, though. Sometimes I wish I could have been alive then. I know I would have had my own mystery mobile, long hair, and lots of...grass.
  • Jessi is spending the week in North Carolina with her family. It's sure quiet around here. I just really hope she recharges and enjoys her time with her husband, parents, and her sister.
  • I spend a lot of the weekends queueing up music for the station. If you check this out on the weekends, be sure to go to Shoutcast, search for Lynchburg Underground, and tune in to some good metal tunes.
  • The wife and I are taking steps getting ready to move to Richmond. This week I'm going to look at housing again and employment. The plan for me is to transfer and I'm really hoping to land something in direct sales. A paycheck is muchly needed, but a commisions check on top of that would just be sugar on the icing.

That's all for now. Thank you all again. It's hard to be humble when you're as great as I am, but dangit I'm really trying!

For My Friend

I moved to Richmond in September, full of aprehension. Many of you by keeping up with my story know full well the ups and downs that I have faced. I was very fortunate to land a great job in October. After a lot of rejection, and fear for losing everything I started my new job with that same fear I had when I moved to this city. I was crammed in an office with Kelly Stern. He is such a kind, patient, gentle soul. He showed me around and I got comfortable working there really fast. I smile when I remember one of my coworkers talking about us giggling in there all day. I had fun those days. It did not take me long to find out that Kelly was gay. He mentioned living with Jeff, and I put two and two together fast. Kelly listened to my troubles, and gave me sound, firm advice. He has been so helpful to me also by taking me home from work almost every day and taking me by the grocery store to get supplies. I would not still be here if it was not for his help. I cannot think of a way to

The Drowning Death Spiral of Modern Political Debates

There's nothing like a tragic loss of life for people to tout their political beliefs. And it's so much easier in this social media age. As I've noted many times before though, there's a lot less discourse now and a lot more shouting and yelling. The weekend tragedy in Orlando is a sad and depressing example of this showboating. In the midst of evil and intolerance, sides have geared up to discuss the merits of gun control again. Yet I don't really hear a coherent debate. What I hear are two sides screaming about two narratives that don't mesh together at all. Picture two children arguing. One wants a video game and the other one wants to eat. The focus is in two different arenas, food and fun. On one side of the gun debate are people who are strong advocates of constitutional jurisprudence. Passing increased measures to limit a law abiding citizen access to weapons, they believe, will not solve the problem of evil that exists when a bad person obtains o

My Wiiview

You all may be familiar with my Wii saga. Janine told me on my birthday in March that we were going to purchase the console which made me very happy. I figured both of us would be able to enjoy the Wii so it was a better value. Being at least two hundred dollars cheaper than the other new consoles help make that an easy decision too. Little did we know that we were in the midst of trying to find one the most sought after pieces of hardware since Tickle Me Elmo. I remember going to at least 5 stores in March only to find laughter when asked if they had any of these Wiis in stock. The manager of one store even told me that if I get in early enough, there may be two consoles, but I better bring a bat because the soccer moms trying to find them as well may have rabies. So Janine and I pretty much gave up on finding the new Nintendo console until last week when I was shopping for her iPod Nano. Sitting there in the back of the store were three Wiis. So now I have my toy hooked up and after
