A Health Update

To my horror, I turned 40 last month.  What the hell?  Wasn’t I supposed to be 25 at some point?  What the hell happened to my 30’s?  Is there a single man out there who does not ask himself these questions upon hitting the 4th decade of life?
At any rate, conventional wisdom says that this [...]

The King of Oblivion

"The King of Oblivion" is an awesome song by Seven Nations, a Celtic rock group based in Orlando, Florida.  It’s one of those songs that makes me go, "Hmmm," whenever I hear it; I love the lyrics, but I have no idea what the song is about.  The one or two other people I’ve spoken [...]

Having a write-in with some of my fellow Second Life writers. #

I’m undecided among the Republican candidates. They’re all insane. #
Even Ron Paul. Perhaps especially Ron Paul. #
Scream if you see this, ’cause I bet no one reads my twits and [...]

Finally!

I finally get a chance to use one of my very favorite words in the world while discussing current events!  According to Reuters, a German man defenestrated himself accidentally while tossing his Christmas tree.
Defenestrated is my favorite word.  It means to throw something out the window.  How awesome is that?
My joys are simple.

The Penguin and the Python

For my birthday, the CWW (Coolest Wife in the World, which is how Jennifer will be referred to in my journal from here on out, if I remember to do so) got me one of these:

It’s one of these, a Tux Droid from Kysoh.  Basically it sits next to your computer and Does Things.  Its [...]

Resolved

Actually, I don’t make New Year’s resolutions.  I’ve always sort of thought of January 1st as a pretty arbitrary date for making Big Changes in your life that you’re going to forget about a few days later anyway.  So I just haven’t bothered.  If pressed, I’ll happily say that I only make March 25th resolutions, [...]
