2008-05-10T23:06:01Z

On a much lighter note from the other day, I have to say that I am slowly warming up to the new companion on Doctor Who. Both Rose and Martha were strong characters that complimented David Tennant's Timelord quite nicely. Donna is more of a humo...

ramshackle day parade

2008-05-09T14:48:18Z

A nagging thought in the back of my mind. Unfinished business. Something that I can not escape. A monkey on my back. The elephant in the room. How can I properly describe how I feel about having to pay two mortgages, because my old condo will...

Yesterday, I managed to obtain an interesting cross-section of songs to add to my collection. They ranged from Tori Amos to Snow Patrol with some Michelle Branch and Oasis also in the mix. I like both Tori and Snow Patrol, but did not get their ...

Jason Aaron with his writing on the Vertigo title Scalped has filled the void left by Y The Last Man as a must read for me every month. Of the eight issues that I own, I have yet to read a bad issue. Each and every installment of the story of li...

chunky monkey desire

2008-04-29T01:31:06Z

For a while I have had this running joke with my wife. Whenever she asks me if I want to eat some ice cream, I loudly reply in my best cartoon voice that I want some Chunky Monkey. This usually annoys her for a number of reasons. First of all, ...

lost survivor brother

2008-04-25T22:03:51Z

At four o'clock this morning, I was witness to what had to be the first spectacular thunderstorm of the year. The forecast had predicted strong storms, but so often that seems to be an exaggeration, but that was not the case this time. More than...

bicycle car stress

2008-04-24T21:16:20Z

Yesterday was the best Wednesday that I have had in three weeks. Why? It was the first time in three weeks that I was not dealing with car problems. Sigh. I fully confess that I am not an automotive person by any means so I have to rely on wha...
