The Nicotine-Fueled Nerve Ending

I'll sleep when I'm dead, and maybe not even then

About Me

To those not "blessed" (read blighted) with my presence, I speak in sarcasm and jokes. At least it's honest. I like people who don't have to describe themselves by what kind of fabric they would be or some other nonsense. I like beer (if you have to add a lime, it isn't beer). And I like my coffee like I like my women...COVERED IN BEES!!!

My Interests

My job. Surprised? I work in a field where it's never the same twice no matter how many times it's rehearsed, I meet new people all the time, and honestly, where else are you going to find a job where women will walk up to you and say "I've got to be naked in 10 seconds!" ?I play a lot of video games. While that may seem like a very solitary thing to do, I've had an audience watching a friend of mine and I play a wrestling game for close to an hour and be enthralled.

I'd like to meet:

my future ex-wife.

Music:

Oh hell... OK, here's the idea: everything from ICP to MSI to your average 90's song to Louis Armstrong and everything in between. Oh, there's A LOT MORE, but my fingers would fall off well before I was done. I am going to note one cd of Broadway showtunes (Avenue Q), but you'll stop making fun of me when you hear the music (songs like "My Girlfriend Who Lives In Canada" and "The Internet is for Porn").

Movies:

Sideways (for those of you who know me...scarry!), Spiral, Love Hina, The Crow, most action films, Sin City, GOOD anime, and Hunchback of Notre Dame. There are more, but I don't have the space for them all.

Television:

CSI, CSI New York, CSI Miami, NCIS, CSI SLC...wait... Angel (I got you negative comment right here...), Numbers (CBS has done something right), Family Guy, Robot Chicken, Sealab 2021, and all the Law and Orders.

Books:

Starship Troopers, Any Al Franken book, Wicked, comic books...sorry, graphic novels, strategy guides, anything by Roberst Asprin, and good manga (Negima!, Gunslinger Girl, Jing, Love Hina).

Heroes:

Hal Jordan, Kyle Raynor, Guy Gardner, John Stewart... Wait, you mean my heroes? Crap. My father. My mother. Any member of IATSE who does that for their full-time job.

On second thought, let's not. It's a silly place.

I was very very VERY excited when I heard Spamalot was coming to the Wynn.  I am a huge fan of Monty Python and especially the Holy Grail.  So when I get a phone call saying we're getting co...

These are the things that keep Bayer in business

OK, despite the title, not all of these things irk me.  Some just make me laugh (it's either that or scream, and I just don't have the lungs for screaming). We had a guy come in the store about a...

So goes another dictator...

My dog Napoleon was put to sleep last night.  The ER vet said it was congestive heart failure and told my mother that the best they could do other than euthanasia was maybe a few more days in ext...

This is why I hate Harry Potter

OK, forget my accident.  Forget the dumb questions I get asked at Borders.  Forget even that I think this mania for some book is WAY over-rated. I was "informed" just what was going to ...

An update from the frontlines of my war with reality

OK, so I know I was going to make a real post...oh...a lifetime ago.  Well, better late than never, right? The quick version: life sucks, work sucks, I'm sick, and all is right with the world.&nb...

There's a big one coming soon, but this ain't it

OK, so a few random thoughts before I go to bed. 1.  The fan-favorite video to overlay "Through Glass" on?  Kingdom Hearts...I like AMVs, but there are a TON of them (this is your fault Zane...

I just saw Jordan

Ok, it wasn't really Jordan.  Or was it?  He look WAY too much like Jordan.  Same hair, same build and facial structure, same ass shake (yes, my sister actually said "He's got the same ...

This is why I can't squander my vacations anymore

Well, it's almost time for me to return to my routine called work, but before that, a few observations. 1.  Waffle House hashbrowns really have no equal.  Same applies to Dunkin Donuts coffe...
