I'm wondering if any of my friends have experience in the world of writing and finding a literary agent.  My father has now written 3 novels and is currently trying to get representation.  They are fantasy novels and a trilogy with room for a prequel and further books in that world.  He's done a lot of research, but I thought that if someone I know ( Read more... )

I'm so done with work today.  I'm just waiting so I can head down to Gateway 2007.  For those of you with lives, that is a gaming convention down at the Westin Hotel by LAX.  A weekend of almost nonstop gaming.  Broken only by sleep and frequent caffeine beverage induced potty breaks.  The drive down is going to blow goats (I have proof), but I've ( Read more... )

Ok, so I'm hoping that some of you have been to The Melting Pot before.  I have never been but have wanted to try it.  I am going this Sunday with Risa for our 3rd Wedding anniversary.  Does anyone have any recommendations?  I'm kind of picky, but I'm trying to branch out a little here. Even a better idea of what to expect would be good.

Thanks

Well, Risa and I returned from Vegas yesterday afternoon.  I was very sad to come home, but my body needed it.  We actually could have been many places and had an equally good time.  The company is what made it great.  We got to stay in a very nice timeshare with a few pools and hot tubs.  One of the pools is a "lazy river" pool where it has a ( Read more... )

Ok, I don't post that often and I'm often lax about checking LJ. It comes and goes. Sometimes I check it multiple times a day and that will last for about a week, and then there are times when I totally forget it exists. Normally because of a game or a book I'm into at the time ( Read more... )

Ok, I'm sure other people have posted about this, but did anyone see the Southpark with WoW the other night? Well, it's already on YouTube. Man, I laughed and cried.

Damn you all to hell. Well, some of you, and you know who you are. I have been avoiding this game for so long and now I'm hooked.

WoW Bastards: 1
Casey: 0

Well, at least it's fun. See all you bastards on later.

Well, I'm a little bored and I liked this quiz so what the hell.........

Constructive, selfish, and loyal, with a heap of tough love -- you are The Realist. Your first priority is exactly what it should be -- you. You're concerned about others but ( Read more... )

Last night I am woken up from a dead sleep by my reetee dog barking. This instantly pisses me off, so I go out and get him to come over to the door where I share a small amount of whoopass and a whole lot of cursing. *side note* For those that are concerned about the whoopass, my dog runs full speed into concrete and eats pottery with no ill ( Read more... )

Sometimes it seems like everything is going in the shitter. Most of the time it seems somewhere in the middle with some fluctuation to either side....but then there's those times where everything seems to go great. I'm approaching the latter at this moment. I have a wonderful wife, great friends, I'm in two bands and now ( Read more... )
