Another silly blog where I muse ponderifically on the art and science of wording thoughts. So what is blogging to you? To me blogging is all about all about lending cogency to a thought, breathing life into a whim. Some days the swirling ideas, the tornado of life, whips up the mundane and transforms it into the sublime. At other times, it morphs the exquisitely divine into the muck of everyday existence. We gather here in this space to share our observations. We laugh, we cry, we titillat... Read Full Story

So I came damn near close to not writing this blog. In fact I have been taking my first extended break from blogging in like, forever. Today’s topic is about the feeling of apathy. Some people would call it lazy but that’s just apathy with intention. Others would say insouciant but that’s just plain lazy without caring. Lassitude is too dang slow to describe the feeling. Half-heartedness. That’s it! Apathy is all about heart, really. Or lack thereof. You see... Read Full Story

So life’s been swamping me of late. Don’t you hate it when your real space encroaches on your blogging. Today a little updating of Shakespeare “All the World’s a Stage” soliloquy similar to my last attempt (”To Blog or Not to Blog”) for your reading and commenting pleasure … All the world’s a blog, And all the men and women merely writers: They have their posts and their reposts; And one blogger in the Blogosphere writes of many farts, His acts...

Clark and I had been friends since our youth back in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. It was there that Clark and I began our epic rivalry. It revolves around hot, spicy, ethnic food. You see in Tennessee we grew up thinking that kind of fiery food only came from Taco Bell. When we left those sylvan environs we had lots of lost meals (and burrito supremes) to make up for so we both became ravenous foodheads. This particular misadventure takes place years later in Samezu, (literal translation: Shark... Read Full Story

Maybe you’ve heard that old saw, “Laughter is the best medicine?” It’s not that I don’t trust the wisdom of grandmothers and reader’s digest. Let’s just say I’m healthily agnostic about what canards I choose to believe in. So I decided to investigate this claim in my typical pseudo scientific method for you gentle readers. Herewith are my findings: The first question we must ask ourselves is what malady is laughter the best medicine for? I mean, I guess if I had a gangrenous foot that need... Read Full Story

If you’ve read my profile or previous blogs you’ll know that I am an ersatz entrepreneur. As previous co-founder of an internet software company, my official title was CBO or Chief Begging Officer. Therefore I had the inglorious task of beseeching potential investors to drop serious coin into our company coffers so we could eventually pay our engineers. So the other night with that basic premise in mind I attended one of those mandatory meetings for entrepreneurs grubbing for... Read Full Story

Another in the ongoing blog series of household appliances gone awry … I felt strangish from the moment the first light of morning woke me from a mildly unfitful sleep. I made my way down, bumping somewhat bleary-eyed into the kitchen and straight for the coffee maker. As usual I had set everything up the night before so all it took was a ginger press of a lone button and soon the soothing drip and savory smell of coffee was filling the room. I took an English muffin out of the package, br... Read Full Story
