The Moving Sidewalk Is About To End
Bored White Boy sits in the airport waiting to board his plane to wherever. He’s slouched in his chair looking like he’s going to doze off any minute, when a sound catches his ear. It’s the moving sidewalk next to his chair row. The belt on it had squeaked in a sort of odd way. Hearing this, White Boy stirs a bit ( Read more... ) -
Orlando Massacre
I’ve got a bit to say about the massacre at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando on June 12, 2016. There’s some strong language in this, so be warned ( Read more... ) -
The Loudness War
The Loudness War
It’s been said before by more “qualified” and distinguished music connoisseurs, so I am not necessarily breaking new ground with this, but I am fed up. I need to add my voice to the movement. Music is too loud, and it is getting louder every year. It needs to stop.

Gay Pride
I don't participate in gay pride events. I do appreciate their purpose, but the purpose only exists for members of the gay community.

Put On Your Dunce Caps
I have come to the conclusion after 5 years working in the government sector that government workers are all rejects, nerds, geeks, social rejects or class clowns. Sometimes all of the above rolled into one. I hear about so many antics, outlandish conversations and unusual diatribes that I am forced to conclude one indisputable fact: If you were ( Read more... ) -
So What Are You Doing This Weekend?
It's the loaded question of doom for the single people and the naturally anti-social, homebody, shy and cagy working crowd. I got it several times today, and by now I'm sick of it. "What are you doing this weekend?" they ask, it being the day before a holiday weekend. People are naturally curious about their co-workers' "other" life, the one ( Read more... ) -
California and the Man Brain
As far as I can tell, my office-mate wants to have sex with half of the girls on this entire planet. Why he tells me this, I have no idea, but he does insist on visiting a “Thong of the Day” webpage daily and picking out which MSNBC anchorwoman he would like to share a bed with. You’ve seen those “Man Brain” diagrams where the brain is ( Read more... ) -

Greets
Greetings to whoever happens upon my journal page. I mainly created this account to respond to others' journals with, but this thing might turn out to be one of those time-consuming (or time-wasting) stealth bombs of mine, like browsing forums, reading on various subjects online and watching movies. Time will tell I suppose-- I do have a lot of ( Read more... )
