Changing The World

I plan on writing a book or two within the next 18 months, and if no one else will publish them, I�ll have to end up self-publishing. It�s out of this desire to be the person who precipitates change, to be one of the ones who is responsible for the way the world turns out [...]


My Phone Line

Let’s talk about people. Hell, let’s just talk. It’s something not enough people do.
I am a firm believer in mutual respect and communication. I do not bias people on things they cannot control (age, race, gender, etc.), because it is the person who makes the person, not what color their eyes are. And, therfore, I [...]


Endorse This!

I was listening to the radio last night (my CD player in my truck will be fixed today!) and I heard an interesting news report. I am glad that I was listening to the radio last night, or I may have never know. It makes me want to listen more and more…
Are you ready? This [...]


Small Sized Dilemmas

I am talking, of course, about the ever-shrinking size of parking spaces.
Who exactly decided that it was a good idea to shrink parking spaces down to sub-atomic sizes? At work, I need a can opener to get into (or out of) my car if I am unfortunate enough to be sandwiched between two other [...]


Thanks Giving… But Just Today!

Another holiday, another small, tiny, little blurb from Isaac about how he hates holidays.
Okay, for those of you who are avid readers, you’ll know what’s up. For those of you who aren’t, I’ll keep it brief:
I don’t like holidays. I don’t like birthdays. I don’t like anything that tries to force something you [...]


The Random Encounter

It is especially nice when you’re not busy trying to play the games of social politics and all the other ‘fun’ things we tend to do with our time and random social encounters. The need to get something out of meeting people is, to me, horrid. That something being beyond the actual meeting of another [...]


Something I Do

Simple enough. Normally this doesn’t satisfy them, and they say something alluding to the fact that they wish for me to expound upon what I do. Then, most times, I say that I am a writer. Then I get one of these responses: “oh.” “cool! what do you write?” “do you have a real job?” [...]


Dedicated To Virginia

Dedicated To Virginia
Looking for tomorrow

You only found today

Lost in all the madness

It was never all that clear

How everything should be so easy

When hard is all you see

Never a clear path

Nor ever an open door

You want so much to reach

Hold on to that precious dream

That one that always slips away

But you’ve finally found a place

That quiet [...]


Those Evil Businessmen

I’m talking, of course, about all these recent commercials that try to sarcastically depict the business world as a bunch of buffoon-ish characters talking in some psuedo-hip industry lingo about whatever nonsense the nut jobs at the ad factory are trying to stuff down our collective throats this week.
I, for one, am sick of it. [...]


Observations From The Parking Structure…

Did you just honk at me?! I, as well as you, am just sitting here. I believe my clock now reads five minutes later. Funny. I left this parking structure fourty-five minutes ago, and there were two attendants (one on each side) letting people pay to get out. I had to come back, and now [...]
