It’s a Rich Man’s World

“I wish…”

I say it all the time. Usually it’s in reference to a bit of cash I wish I had to make things happen. I’m so strapped for time (between work and packing lunch, and working out, and commuting) there is no time to even LIVE anymore in the proper sense of the word. One [...]

Mini Me

I fooled around on a German SouthPark site and came up with this. It was a great way to kill time on a rainy afternoon. I wish the sky would rain itself out already. I hate how humid it’s been.

There Is No Time

A news story like this is what makes me want to tear my hair out. While the article agrees nurses are busy, its general tone is that of fear and overwhelming concern for the elderly who are supposedly “at risk” in hospitals. Nevermind that old people are at risk etc just by their age. Just [...]

Join or Die

I used to think Tower was so cool, now I haven’t even been inside the one two blocks from my house in over a year. A year! They haven’t changed the way they did business, probably thought the whole music downloading thing that Napster started would just go away. How wrong they were. Keep your [...]

Six Great Minutes

I’m once again mulling over whether I should pull the plug on my overpriced cable and then I see this. Six awesome minutes of television. If they came around more often, I’d probably watch it more. I love how Colbert keeps himself perfectly straightfaced. I almost wish I lived in Florida so I could vote [...]

For Love or Money

For years, I’ve resisted the lure of advertisers’ money. I will not have ugly banner ads. I will not compromise site design for pennies. I will not sell out. I’ll write what and when I want. This is mine. All mine.

But then I heard about this new thing called PayPerPost on a blog whose article [...]

Christmas– Cancelled

Work sucks. It really lost all reason to be relevant to my life at all on Monday. I was approached by the person in charge of the holiday assignments so I could “pick” my second holiday. Nevermind that it’s almost September. There aren’t many holidays left for this year. The first time she’d asked me [...]

The End of the Ring Story

Remember those rings I lost at work like 2 weeks ago? I left them in the pocket of my scrubs and didn’t notice I didn’t have them on until the next morning.

Well, there’s yet another chapter. Yes, another chapter after I had gone through the whole stages of grief thing. Last week, I think [...]

It’s Happening Again

He’s doing it again. Bill Gates et al stand poised with the knife raised against yet another company’s back. This time it’s the legal Napster and everyone who fell for the PlaysForSure DRM format. Will no one ever learn? This is what Microsoft does. They’re not smart. They’re not creative. They have just happened to [...]

Why I’m Home on a Saturday Night

I couldn’t bring myself to go elsewhere due to my being newly massaged. Since I have yet to acquire a personal masseuse who will be at my beck and call every day, I don’t want to ruin the effect for as long as I can get away with. Hence it’s Saturday and I’m home and [...]

At the Mercy of the Idiots

I don’t get it. I don’t get what’s confusing about no liquids on the planes. Whether you agree with the rules or not or whether you think they’re stupid or not is beside the point. You will cause a panic if you break them especially in times like these. The ensuing flight delays will screw [...]

Two Things

What does this picture have to do with anything? It isn’t a photograph, just a snapshot taken by a family member that I cropped. So why post it?
Well, two things. One gone the other in danger. Firstly, the four silver rings I used to always wear. This past week, I lost them at work. All [...]
