NeoGaf was… is a gaming forum. Yeah, so what, right? Well, this one was (is) kind of like the granddaddy of all gaming forums. It was pre-Reddit. Pre Twitter. Pre-just about everything. NeoGaf was place for people ‘in the know’ to seek harbor when there was no where else to go. It was a place Read more

I don’t like this time of year. It’s the uneasy space between fall and winter. The first frost has come and gone. Some trees are barren while others linger. One bush has two yellow roses despite her sisters’ surrender. Everything is dead and dying. A season’s worth of growing effort is under our feet and we trample Read more

When I was in Florida, I missed this season the most — well, second most. Green leaves turn to red, brown, and yellow. The limbs are barren. Corn, once nurtured to be tall and strong, is swept away, much like death taking our own – stalk by stalk. Life by life. During this time of Read more

When I started to become serious with Jason, I used to have these visions/dreams. They were like dreams, but I actually remembered them and hoped that they were some sort of premonitions of the future. The last one was several years ago, but I still remember.

It’s a bit hard to believe that about 13 months ago, Mrs. Clinton herald her downfall with the statement “Trump supporters belong in a basket full of deplorables.” It was something like that. By that time, she was nothing more than a nuance to me since I couldn’t get over her lack of email accountability. Whatever Read more

A couple of weeks ago, my brother and I came to a consensus that the city we where born and raised in should be called Bob. Our city was previously named after a certain Spaniard who hooked up with a queen, got four boats, and sailed the ocean blue in 1492. However, because of reasons, my sibling and I Read more

It is whispered by some that only by abandoning our freedom, our ideals, our way of life, can we build our defenses adequately, can we match the strength of the aggressors. … I do not share these fears. Pres. Roosevelt – Fireside Chat – May 26, 1940 ——————————- Roosevelt was, I think, one of the Read more

It simply amazes me that Hillary Clinton is still placing blame. It was the Russians that caused her the promised election. It was Bernie. It was the emails. It was this. It was that. It’s not her fault that she lost. That honor belongs to someone else, probably Comey. And her loss caused her to Read more

I saw Stephen King’s IT on Friday (the original day) at the 1:20 showing. So what? Why is this remarkable, you ask? I didn’t feel guilty about spending money on myself for a ticket. I didn’t berate myself for sitting 2+ hours without at least standing, fidgeting, or doing something. I broke away from NOA Read more
