I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I have a tendency to want too much, doubt too much, and think too much. And that's before we even get down to the eating and drinking, of which I also get more than my fair share. Let's face it--life has too much to offer, and I'm only going to be here (in this form, anyway) once. I refuse to stop before I've sampled and written about all of it.

From Point A..... To Point B...

The day started with baby vomit, a fetid splatter of it over my right shoulder as I was stocking a fresh supply of Razor scooters. I thought to myself that the ill infant probably didn't like being dr...

Please Don’t Go Shopping Tomorrow!

Almost everyone I know says that they aren't part of the teeming masses of lemming-folk who camp out in front of Best Buy, JC Penny, Circuit City, Kohl's, Wal-Mart, or Target for the day of shopping m...

An Unmoveable Feast

Beowulf 3D -- Review

Ray Winstone as he likely looks in his wildest dreams... How does one describe in words something that is more than "over the top?" I suppose it would suffice to say that a movie like Beowulf has tra...

The Wire

As a student, I absolutely loathe this time of year. An entire quarter's worth of dilly-dallying finally starts to feel serious and rushed. Things that were supposed to be covered in class end up bein...
