Picture(s) A Day – 19 February 2010

I’d like to start off this post by thanking everyone for their support in the past week along with their continued understanding when I’m slow to post during times like these.  Today (20 February 2010) was largely spent resting up after a stressful week.  Aside from that, I helped out Ulises with some technical issues [...]

Last Post of the Day – Mary Smich’s Guide to Life for Graduates

Enough with the stress and strain.  Enough with the money problems.  Sometimes it seems like most of what money does is create problems, but like I said, I’ve had enough of those.  Enough with problems in general.
It’s time for something a little better – a bit of my philosophy for life   No, it [...]

Explosives Containers Punctured, Locals Show Good Common Sense

I got a kick out of this story   No, it wasn’t because explosives were involved or anything like that.  It was the reaction of the locals to the news that a container of explosives had been punctured.
From foxnews.com:
Locals said there was no sense of panic. Drew Hall, who answered the phone at Crystal [...]

Ya Know, My Day’s Not Going Quite That Bad After All

I found this little gem of a video over at Weasel Zippers last night and thought I’d post it myself while I had a few seconds

Life’s going pretty well for me lately as I’ve said.  Still, some out there may not be quite so fortunate so I figured I’d do here what I [...]

Felonious Wood

No, I’m not talking about some male prostitute or stripper.  I’m talking about actual pieces of trees.  And you’re probably a felon because of this load of bullshit.  It’s bipartisan bullshit that was actually vetoed by then President Bush whose veto was overridden by that circus full of clowns we call Congress.
Here’s a small excerpt [...]

Last Post of the Day – Jimmy Buffett – Souvenirs

Most of the Buffett songs I know (and that’s a pretty large number of ‘em) I learned while I was working at Captain’s Cove.  This isn’t one of those.
I bought Margaritaville Cafe – Late Night Menu because it was the only way I could get another song – but you’ll have to wait to find [...]

Picture(s) A Day – 10 October 2009

Work went pretty darn well today.  I’m feeling quite a bit better today, though I can’t quite figure out why.  Sleep’s been a problem off and on and last night was no different.  Maybe it was the caffeine, but I seemed to be doing rather well and the calls weren’t all that bad
Fall [...]

Last Post of the Day – Jimmy Buffett / CSN (and sometimes Y) – Southern Cross

I searched for a song for tonight that felt right.  A Buffett song that would fit the mood.  There were a few candidates, but this one finally won out.
OK, maybe it doesn’t quite “fit the mood” but it’s what’s getting me through until better days
Some out there are no doubt wondering how this [...]

Last Post of the Day – Jimmy Buffett – Cultural Infidel

This is a really fun song and yet another that I can readily identify with.  Some say that I really should be more careful of what I say and around whom I say it, but I just can’t seem to get the hang of doing that
Ever since my second grade teacher told my [...]

Last Post of the Day – Jimmy Buffett – Cowboy in the Jungle

I’ve always liked this song from the first time I heard it many years ago in San Diego.  I just loved the story line.  Jimmy is one heckuva storyteller after all
But it’s taken on a bit of a different meaning for me in the last five years.  I still feel a bit out [...]
