  • I like to discuss things like music, movies, religion, politics, and other stuff that might offend you if you've got a different point of view.

    As you read through my blog, you'll see the progression of someone trying to sound smart (but coming off pretentious and moody) changing into someone who mainly just wants to write something that will make people laugh and/or express some of his opinions. The more recent stuff is better--and generally more positive. Perhaps I've grown...

    Only one rule: If you're going to comment, please at least pretend we're all grown-ups here.

I’m not going to lie to you Marge……………

So the blog was pretty quiet for a bit there, huh?  Sorry about that.  It’s been a rough week (or so?) and days are kind of blending into each other.  Been frightfully busy at work (one of those blessing/curse things–glad for the work, could do without the stress…but I choose to err on the side [...]

It was a good service this week, I think.  [...]

I was talking to a couple of guys this week about the first item on the following list.  I said (proudly) that I had never done that thing.  It was no big deal, conversation moved on to other things…but it did start me thinking.  What stuff that people talk about as being a big deal [...]

Me Fail English? That’s Unpossible!

Haven’t blogged in like a week.  Oops.  Here’s a random post.  Hurrah! Played at church today.  Didn’t lead, per se…but played.  My friend Jeremy was leading and I was backing him up.  He was kind enough to thank me for “carrying him,” because that’s the kind of guy he is, but in reality of the [...]
