Twitter

Well, it’s official. I’m hooked.
Took a couple of months since I joined to get the hang of it. Twitter is a very confusing place for a beginner. Just doesn’t make any sense. Like waves don’t make sense to a beginning surfer. They just smash him around and throw him in the air.
But after a while, [...]

Korczak’s Children

Last night I saw the best production of a play I’ve ever seen. I’m still vibrating in resonance with the beauty and humanity of it. The play was called Korczak’s Children, by Jeffrey Hatcher. An excellent play, but the thing about this production that made it bust my heart (in a good way) was the children [...]

Quixel von Pixel

Photoshop is da bomb. Talk about easy art. Just google something you’re looking for, for your composition. Click on “Images”. Then go find somebody to rip off. What could be easier? Art without having to draw anything. All you have to do is lower your morals and you’re there!
Just layer in whatever has stricken your [...]

Mistakes, boobie-doodles, or oopsies

Mistakes are weird. They come in families. First you make daddy mistake, then here comes mommy mistake, then they make babies.
I noticed that mostly at work. Somebody makes a mistake (in my case that was often me) then, inexorably, that creates another mistake which is related to fixing the first mistake. Then that mistake breeds [...]

The blizzard

Ol’ Man Winter, welcome home! We finally got some snow on the flatlands. A big white whirling wonderful wad of it. This has been the most unwinterlike winter season I ever spent in Colorado – generally a mild place to experience winter (unless you’re up in the mountains) but we do get some, and that’s [...]

To wow or not to wow

I’ve been practicing my wows lately and have to say it’s pretty cool. If you stop for a sec and say wow, no matter what you’re seeing or doing, things tend to get more impressive. And being impressed by the miraculous is a good thing, even though it may seem boring until you say wow.
Positive [...]

Miracles

I am getting so tired of miracles. Day in and day out, everywhere I look, miracles, miracles, miracles.
Sheesh, can’t anything be ordinary? Every single thing that happens or merely even exists is at least a trillion to one shot, more likely a trillion trillion to one. I suppose if something happens once every few billion [...]

War, perfected

That title is the tag line for a TV ad: Killzone 3, I think is the game. A video game. Advertising ho.
I guess in a way it is war perfected. A war in which nobody gets killed. Every single dead person in that perfect war is fake. But it sure creeps me out that our [...]

Beauty and humanity

There is nothing in all the world as beautiful as a human person. Just watched a Canadian show about the new China, and I’m here to tell you those are some beautiful beings. I love Chinese people, they’re as awesome as us.
Butterflies are pretty, but compared to a human they are plain and boring. Not [...]

Blame again

Lord O Mighty Lord, how many times do I have to learn the same lesson? Ten bajillion I think. Or so.
Just dashed off a cheerless check to the Northwest Parkway Toll Authority for $123. Authority is right. Those dorkheads. Zero tolerance, that sunny phrase, strikes again. Any violation deserves what it gets.

The joy of sickness

A work question: if you’ve been sick since last Sunday, then get well just in time for the weekend, do you still get to goof off?
Something about a mild illness is mighty refreshing. Don’t want to jinx myself, since I’m not totally well yet, but this whole blog thing is jinx-ish, blabbing about this, when [...]

100

Well, never figured I’d be under the weather for my hundredth blog. It was supposed to be a bit of a celebration, on a personal level, nothing spectacular, but a hundo is a hundo. So it will just have to be one hundred, without any bells and whistles, or fancy words. Maybe a celebratory sneeze.
A-choo!

Bleah

It’s kind of nice to be sick once in a while. Haven’t been sick in over a year. No need, since I wasn’t working. Almost forgot what a crappy cold/flu thing felt like. Sure am sore, and feel like crap. But it’s worth it, because now I can blow off anything I want and feel [...]

Nebrasky

Off to Nebraska. Whoo-hoo!
Back tomorrow. Will report news and anything of interest to speculative types (that’s you, since I’m just a spectacle type).
Road trip,

How to live

Aha, now that’s the question. Any schmuck can die (although I don’t believe in schumcks, either) and we all do. Now to live…hmmm. No answer to that one, because I don’t think it’s been answered to my satisfaction. I’m not sure I know how, other than breathing and eating and that stuff.
It would be nice [...]

Once upon a present

The present of the present. Now in a bow.
Thanks, time! Kind of you to stop by, though stop is the wrong word, since you never stop, or only in the dentist’s chair.
You just dropped by to drop a now, and now I have it and now it’s gone.
That totally rocked.
Bye!

When peanuts collide

This ain’t about peanuts, just didn’t know what to write about today and had to come up with a snappy title, or a nutty one.
So what’s up with old sayings these days? Just recently I had to explain both “easy as falling off a log” and “living high on the hog.” Maybe it’s the og [...]

Nevermind

Moron alert:

Well, I had an agent for about two hours. The smart people were right, darn them. Why do they have to do that so much? It was too good to be true, Shifty was really shifty, in a bad way.
My coach tuned me back into reality long enough for me to research the site [...]

How to start your day

Pop out of bed eightish, or nine, or whenever you feel like getting up. Brush your teeth. Drink some hippie juice. Take the three-minute drive to the health club. Hop in the sauna for twenty minutes. Then do ten leisurely laps in the pool, luxuriating in the feeling of the cool water flowing over your [...]
