Quit Calling, You Bastards!

So we’re up to five calls this week from the Rebublicans. Our nation’s security and future are at stake. If we don’t vote in the narrow-minded hatemongers that make up the bulk of their candidates, we’ll be overrun by terrorists, liberals, gays and abortionists! Gasp! The only terrorist threat I’ve experienced so far has come […]

Catching Up (a third time?)

The economy’s rosy . . . so why does America’s accountant (I really should remember the links when posting this crap, shouldn’t I?) have to do a nationwide tour explaining that we are fucked, economically speaking? Hmmm, maybe sending all our money to Halliburton, et. al to screw the war on terrorism was not such […]

Crapspace

As is evident by my self-centred writing style, I have few friends. I work from home for a tech firm several states away and do not spend a lot of time around others. I like it this way. There are a select few people with whom I talk or email, and yes, I like it […]

Drool

I cracked open my first Moose Drool last night. Sure, I’d had it on tap before and loved it, but this was my first experience from a bottle. The glass was chilled, the beer cold, and it flowed smoothly like a fine drool (okay, more like a cold beer, but I’m trying to work with […]

Spokane Joe’s

Spokane wants to grow up: A fancy new convention center, Trader Joe’s on the way (we hope) and a police force reminiscent of LAPD at its worst. I suppose beating the populate into submission is one way to go about creating an orderly citizen. Or a dead one. Anyway, here’s hoping they get that Trader […]

Beef. It’s what haunts me.

I must be ill- I keep craving beef. I am not a beef eater. Lamb, pork, chicken?- yes. Fish, shrimp, the occasional duck breast?- sure. But beef? Definitely no. So why do I keep thinking about it? Damn you, National Cattlemen’s Beef Association! Must be the voiceovers. Related Images:

Uncertainty

I watched the terrorist attacks on 9/11 on high-def plasma screens at work. I had started telecommuting earlier that year, but still drove the two hours to and from work twice a week. Had I not been there, I most likely would not have known what happened until the following day. As it was, I […]

Stink Train

The stench is unbearable. My office is complete chaos, but it is not coming from anything I left in there. No, the stench is me. True, I showered last night, but I was too lazy to grab a clean shirt this morning. so on with the old and out with the ewww! Rancid acrid sweat […]

Backlog

Well now. Looking through my notebook from last week, it seems I skipped several pages of regurgitation. We can’t have that, can we? Sure, it’s outdated now by almost a week, but who cares? It was put to paper, so there must be some value in it regardless of the content. If not, how does […]

Happy 4th, now let’s talk about me.

Happy 4th of July, everyone. And with that, let us turn this back to my favorite subject: Me. Here’s the post I meant to put up last Wednesday after arriving in McLean, Virginia. I love to write, to watch my ideas form on the page. You (or someone else if not you, you inconsiderate worm!) […]
