“The wife and I are going to see a marriage counselor today to try and salvage...”

After seeing what other folks do with Tumblr, perhaps I’m being too serious with my posts. Hrmm…

Gaming Sabbatical
Once again, I feel that I’m spending too much of my time with video games. If you’re a gamer, you know the feeling. One, two, three days will seem to have rushed by without altogether too much happening, save for work, or time with a loved one. You find yourself feeling like you’re out-of-touch with reality. You find that you’ve spent entire days of your weekend indoors,...

theskid asked: Hey homie, generally my rates are between $30-$40 an hour depending on what I'm doing, whether or not it's something that I really like to do or if I can sell prints of it after it's done and so forth...
Generally it takes me anywhere from 6-10 hours for something comparable to a "Bad Dude", I believe the Beatles illustration took me about 10-12.

NERDS OF AMERICA:
We were once a country that made things: giantmetal cars, Hoover Dams, non-AutoTuned popular music.
But now we are stuck in an economy in limbo, surrounded by our Internets, our hipsters and our arguing politicians.
Nerds, I have a great idea to make America great…

Elder Review: Evil Genius
I’ve always been a fan of the Bond films, but it’s never been because of the crazy gadgets, snide one-liners or fast cars. For me, it’s all about the villains.
Some of you may remember that, ages back, there was a game series known as “Dungeon Keeper”. These games put you in the role of an… owner(?) of a generic fantasy dungeon. You’d assign your little...

Game Review: Game Developer Story
Disclaimer: I take no responsibility for any loss of productivity, free time, or other damages that may occur as a result of purchase and use of the game reviewed hereafter.
Game Developer Story came as something of a surprise to me. I’ve had some serious reservations when it’s come to gaming on smart phones, and although I’ve bought more than my share of games for my iPhone,...

Sharia Law, Fear and Us
I get it. Sharia law is oppressive, no one would argue that. Women have rights, people of other religious beliefs have rights, rights were had by all. So, it baffles me why some of our lawmakers seem to have to make a point of passing legislation to forbid said law from “invading” the US.
For one thing, those that truly fear Sharia law run in primarily conservative circles, the same...

Merry Christmas!
It’s not original or witty, but does it need to be? No! Whatever your beliefs, whatever you’re doing on this auspicious day, may it be filled with family, friends, and the joy that these all bring.

Redistricting Bothers Me...
Once every ten years, voting districts are rearranged to suit the needs of whatever political party throws the most weight at the time. This, this bothers me.
For those of you unaware of redistricting, it’s the process of redrawing districts in the US, going off the recent census data. In theory, this is to make sure that voting districts are kept representative of the number of people...

Minecraft Madness!
Time for some soul-wrenching honestly: I’m in love with Minecraft.
Minecraft is an odd little game, in that, as a friend of mine has pointed out before, it’s not really a game. There’s no goal in it, there’s no end of level, big boss, or final cutscene. It’s a game of interactive Legos with friends, and there’s not much more to it than that.
Does it need to be...

Already, a conundrum...
I’m informed a blog needs a topic, a goal, a… a meaning to its life, I guess.
Well, damn. I suppose it’s fair to think that if you stay near a topic, people who like that topic will gravitate towards you. That’d be neat, but what would, or should my focus be? I’ve got options, to be sure…
Politics: I’ve got some strong opinions in this area, but...

First Post of (Hopefully) Many
Disclaimer: This isn’t my first blog.
I’m not the best at committing to any regular writing schedule, and it’s not hard to see that. I must own at least seven different journals (or diaries, however you care to call them), and each one enjoys a varying degree of “fullness”, ranging from a quarter all the way down to “unopened”. I keep thinking whenever I...
