Yup. It works!

We heard a lot during the campaign that Obama was some sort of super genius and an constitutional law scholar. It turns out he was a middle of the road student who thinks we have 57 states and has the constitutional understanding of the mechanical chick Bugs Bunny used to hang around with.
In short, [...]

As some of you know, I ran out of my blood pressure meds about two weeks ago. Unfortunately the financial situation made getting it refilled something of a hassle*.
In the interim, my BP went back to where it wants to be on its own – about 185 over 130 or so. They tell me this [...]

One guy, real talent and 3DS Max. Not only is it technically outstanding but the cinematography is simply stunning.

A post I just made, including the text of the person I was replying to since it is open to the public.
“But I think now more and more that this is obviously intended, some stories must be told again and again that as many people as possible must understand.
With every tree that falls in [...]

Important note: Ok, OK. I’m probably an idiot. It is more and more clear that this @JFCameron account isn’t the esteemed James Cameron at all – but an impostor. If I wasn’t so interested in the sheer silliness of the comments in question I would have thought of that right off.

This was posted on a forum about the game Overlord 2, but it is worth applying to almost every aspect of your life.

“It’s like a gnat trying to rape an elephant. Whatever pleasure the gnat derives from the experience, if the elephant notices at all, it’s only an itch.” – The other McCain

In short, don’t let the turkeys get you down.

Its been a while since we got fucked and slowly the pack is finding its equilibrium. It’s not OK, and in a very real way it won’t ever be OK but we are figuring it out. The dynamics are changing, shifting things as we all forge new and different connections to route around the damage.

“I have always thought of my brother as a friendly person living on top of another mountain. We would hail each other from time to time. Talk to each other across the distance and know that the other was always there.
He is a strobe across the firmament, uttering melodies and soft chants, explosions and strong [...]

May folks are curious about Flagg, since it is clear from my tweets that he is in the hospital (again). Looking back, it seems the privacy I accord him may leave some confused that he is “still” there from the transplant.
