Don't live the American dream. Live your dream.

  • Rambling – Jeffrey Epstein

    When I first heard of Mr. Epstein’s death, I didn’t believe it. If he was truly well connected to Gates, Clintons, Musk, and various foreign royalty, there is no way someone would kill him. The guy just knows too much. But, beyond that, he could possibly represent a wealth of information that would be exceedingly Read more

  • Reflection of Gencon – 2019

    *** I’ve been trying to write this for a couple of weeks now. It’s a bit dated, but please bear with me. Okay. Short version. Gencon – A place where people like to play (games) with other people in a generally non-sexual fashion.  Some people like to pay tribute to particular games, television shows, or Read more

    My brother and I where innocently wasting time downtown. We were chasing the new spawns from Wizard Unite and working on our tasks.   We weren’t bothering anyone and just chatting amongst ourselves while looking for memos and monster books. We passed a corner that’s by Laurel’s when this pretty girl approached my baby brother.  She Read more

    This is odd. It’s the last day of the term. My four students have submitted their final project and I’ve graded it.  Sure, there’s a couple of past-due assignments, but nothing major.  My inbox isn’t overflowing with sob stories or extension requests. I almost don’t know what to do.  It’s like the students actually have Read more

    There’s a lot of stuff I’ve wanted to write about. A lot of things have happened, but I just haven’t had a chance to breathe for the past couple of weeks. First, it was Gencon with the little sis for four or five days.   Then it was the little brother for four days.  Jason was Read more

    Have you ever had one of those days… weeks… where you’re trying to project a feeling to the significant other.     That person doesn’t acknowledge it, just doesn’t get it, or chooses to ignore it. This is more than “Hey idiot, do the dishes.” Rather, it’s like a mutual and soulful agreement that really Read more

    I….  we….  head to Indiana on Friday. Then, two weeks after that, he heads back alone. Him, to a house with only a cat, work, and school. I’m back to my doctors and family. It doesn’t seem quite fair.     This is probably the most ‘normal’ we’ve been in like… forever.  He goes to Read more

    The headache is back. It’s resumed it’s roll of torment right behind my left eye.   The shoulder is tightening up.   Feeling a little nauseous too.  Not sure what’s wrong. I haven’t checked the weather outlook lately, but maybe there’s another Barry brewing somewhere.      This sucks. It’s kind of like being sick and being Read more

  • Observations of NieR Automata

    I’m not playing the game — just observing. There’s a couple of things that I’m not quite following. A2 definitely has emotions. Even the little sister called her grumpy lady and she’s distinctly unfriendly with most people, notably Nines at this point, but I’m sure that’ll change.  Grumpy Lady packs a lot of sarcasm. I Read more

    Scrub-a-dub-dub. Fresh off my triumph of doing yard work yesterday without it raining — take that 70% chance —  I decided to double down and do some yard work today as well.     Out I went! Since I mowed the yard, weeded, and did some other stuff yesterday, I did what Frank suggested.    Off Read more
