I was surprised to discover that both this account and this site still exist. Not in the Descartes sense, but in a fully functional sense.

Does anyone still use this at all, or has it completely gone by the wayside to the glorious social-networking narcissistic hell that is Facebook/MySpace/Twitter or what have you?

I apologize for missing three of my last four scheduled updates. Part of this has to do with the fact that I’m absolutely possessed by MapleStory. How quaint. This is what I get for not building a cache of writing before declaring weekly updates ( Read more... )

For the past several years on more than a few occasions I’ve tried to hook my friends up with girls they either told me they liked or girls I thought would be good matches for them. Honestly though, I’ve tried maybe twenty or so times full heartedly and I’ve never, ever been successful. It never really was that I tried to hook all my friends up; ( Read more... )

Yesterday I wasn't in much condition to drive, do homework, read, write, see or breathe so for the most part all I did all day was play MapleStory and clean up the apartment with Drew and Andrew (henceforth referred to as "The Andrews" because saying 'and Andrew' is awkward). Now none of that is particularily notable or shocking, well, actually the ( Read more... )

The 300 entry is put off once again but that’s okay because I’m almost certain the only person waiting for me to write a comparison and contrast article between a movie and a 1500 year old war is Josh ( Read more... )

I was at the Take Action Tour in Lawrence on Saturday with this one girl. She was there mostly for Red Jumpsuit Apparatus; I was there for Emery and Scary Kids Scaring Kids. Emery was amazing and although I’ve never heard anything bad about them I’m always a little doubtful when I’m about to hear a vocalist live. No more doubts here. Emery is so ( Read more... )

I had planned on writing about two things in this update. Firstly how great 300 is and subsequently various Greek and Persian history that's related to that era and movie, and also I had something in mind for House of Flying Daggers that I've never wrote or spoken about to anyone ( Read more... )

What I’ve discovered is that I once had a large reader base and after a rather neglectful period that readership has fallen to about…Oh, five to seven of you who check this nearly constantly. I suppose that what I get for only writing in this ten times every twelve months. Because I’m a marketer by nature and by eventually trade I both admire ( Read more... )

I kind of intended this one to be more informative and thoughtful than funny. Seriously. And, uh ... All those other things I’ve written that you didn’t think were funny? Informative and thoughtful too. Yep. Informative and thoughtful. No intent to elicit any laughter at all ( Read more... )

I was planning on doing a running diary of every day of the ski trip for all of you but I realized two things early on: That I had packed my pen and notebook in my duffle bag and I wasn’t going to ask to stop the car so I could get it out. Secondly, it would be difficult to carry a pen and notebook down a mountain on skis when I can’t even balance ( Read more... )
