Random Returns

-
I do this now and again..instead of something with any kind of format..I just get random!

  • I have a new found respect for Joe Rogan.
  • The Dark Knight, which comes out next year will feature both The Joker and Two Face. I can't wait for that to hit theaters!
  • I'm playing fantasy NASCAR for the first time with Kelly and his friends. If I were to lose, I might be embarrased, but that won't happen. Go Biffle! I don't know what plans they have for the Daytona 500 tomorrow, but more than likely, Miss Clairol 2006/2007 and I will be there.
  • Matt from Gojira-X is celebrating a birthday. Janine and I will be there to celebrate tonight. Salud!
  • We are 2 seasons away from finishing Oz. That show just got more and more brutal towards the end didn't it?
  • Did I mention Tool will be playing in Richmond on April 15th? I'm sure I might have said something to that effect. I'm not sure who's opening for them yet, but so far this year bands like Isis and Mastodon have opened for them. They usually pick really strange bands to open. When I saw them before, The Melvins were opening for them.
  • I have a lot of cleaning to do.
That's all for today. Fun times are acoming!

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
