An Open Letter to the Makers of Shamwow.

Wednesday, January 13th, 2010

I had a $20 rebate card to Pep Boys so I went to see what I could get. Not much really. I was hoping for a Leatherman or a Mag-Light, but no such luck. I finally settled on a $19.99 box of Shamwow. Is it as good as they say? ...

Oh Shit, a Blue Turtle Shell!

Wednesday, January 6th, 2010

Yesterday I bought Mario Kart Wii. Needless to say, we've been racing each other and trying to unlock characters and tracks ever since. I love the "Mushroom Kingdom" universe so much that I've decided to try to collect as many games featuring Mario and friends on as many systems as ...

Where the Fuck Am I?

Tuesday, January 5th, 2010

I've been busy with holiday stuff. Of course that's no excuse. I don't really have an excuse other than: Twitter takes all my good ideas and I've stopped thinking in longer than 140 characters. I don't make the time to blog like I used to. I still need to publish my old LiveJournal ...

Has It Really Been Two and a Half Months?

Monday, October 5th, 2009

I can't believe I haven't posted in so long! I blame twitter as it seems to grab all my seedling ideas before they can grow into fully formed blog posts. However, I'm here now so lets see what I've been up to, unordered list style: Visited LA. Got back in to Magic: ...

Time for a New PC.

Friday, July 17th, 2009

Recently I purchased a Clavia Nord Lead 2 and I love it. The only snag is that I want to integrate it with Ableton Live and other synths, but I just don't have a beefy enough PC. So it seems I need to build a new PC before I can ...

The News Ain’t All Bad.

Friday, June 5th, 2009

Today I got my walking papers. Starting Wednesday of next week, I'll be furloughed from my job. As usual, I'll believe it when they are taking my ID card and waving goodbye. Too many times have I been informed that I'll be furloughed only to stay on an additional month. ...

Total Posting Failure.

Wednesday, June 3rd, 2009

I haven't been posting to this blog and I'm really disappointed about that. But you know what? That's cool. That's the past. I need to get back in the habit (actually there are more than a few habits I need to cultivate) and I will try to post something everyday ...

The Job Scramble.

Monday, April 27th, 2009

The time has come once again for employment musical chairs. Since I'm a seasonal employee, my employment lasts for the season. This would be a big problem if the season was the Christmas Season or the Summer Season; predefined stretches of time that result in swift lay offs as soon ...

I Should Buy Stock in the Comic Supply Industry.

Wednesday, February 11th, 2009

Recently, I received a comic care package from my friend Shad. Every now and then he boxes up comics, books, and trades that he isn't attached to and sends it to Corin and me. Bless the man, for he is doing the lord's work. It's especially cool because he tends ...

Care for an Update?

Sunday, January 18th, 2009

I can't believe it's been over a month since I last posted. I suppose all the holiday stuff got in the way, but the truth is that I simply haven't been in the blogging mood lately. There have been a lot of changes and more than a few events so ...
