Alcohol killed the radio star

So, back in primary school, the word 'sex' was just the funniest thing ever.   In second grade, we used to have these posters on the classroom wall with the word 'Exercise' on them. I used to take great joy in putting the letter 'S' in front of that word, to create a new word: 'Sexercise'. That's right, sexercise. Then, in third grade, when I moved up a grade but stayed in the same classroom, I figured out that I could put the letter 'X' on the end of it and create sexercisex.   Sex.   YEA

6 days

22,000 plus words.   Chapter 1 off to the editor.   One week, and considering I haven't written practically anything except bits and pieces and uncompleted works, I think it's an accomplishment.   And, it's stayed light as any fairy tale should.   Though there is a bit of offal and blood, but that's just the way I do things.   Thinking of doing a dragon story next, course it won't be your usual dragon story. I see the knight as a bit of a dandy. Probably the gold embellishments on his

I may have a new hobby

I like AMVs, an abbreviation that stands for either Anime Music Video or Animated Music Video. Thanks to Youtube, there's thousands of the buggers available at my fingertips, and every so often I go a hunting for them. In college, I had a blast with this, but since I am no longer current on Anime or Video Games, I don't get the references to a lot of them, rendering my enjoyment a bit less.   Until this weekend.   One of the videos I play a lot on Youtube is a Final Fantasy video set to Trap

Thoughts After A Funeral

Today I attended the first funeral I've ever gone to. It was for my sister's father-in-law, who died after a two-year battle with liver cancer at the age of 55.   It was a pretty surreal experience, seeing someone I'd talk to lying in a casket, dressed up like he was in life, and made to look like he was just sleeping. That's the first time I've ever gotten that close to a dead body, and man...something about that was just really strange. The memorial service was pretty beautiful, and th

Pixies!

Just when I thought this story couldn't get any weirder, the pixies showed up.   Seems they're caught in the castle, too, but they know how to get out and have enlisted Gregor's assistance. Well, it wasn't hard since he very much wants to get out, too.   Also, the sorcerer has been named, though he doesn't yet know the significance of that event. We'll have to see.   Plus, we now know how everything can go wrong, forever dooming Gregor to the evils in the castle.   Actually, it's all com

for the best

We have an odd relationship you and I. It was fun in the beginning, flirtatious and ever so drawn-out. Remember the hours I spent exploring you? I do. I thirsted for whatever you were willing to offer up. You offered up a lot, in the beginning.   These last several months

Shock videos

We've probably all heard of them by now. Basically, they are sex videos but not the garden variety. No, these videos are nasty. Watching one is likely to shock you and make you sick. I've seen a few of them. I find them quite disgusting, but for some reason, I have to watch it all the way through even as I'm gagging from seeing it. It's like a train wreck. You can't help but watch. Even more disturbing, at least one person died while filming one of these films. His name was Kenneth Pinyan. Are t

It's a damned fairy tale!

Don't know where it came from. Where do stories come from? Out of the ether I suppose.   Anyway, it's a fairy tale. You know, one of those Grimm brothers tales about curses, monsters, princes, fair maidens (only in this case it's not a maiden).   Don't know what's to become of it. Since I've pretty much every thing I've started this year is hanging around undone in the Doc folder. Of course, this hasn't been a very good year, but the meds seemed to have stabilized me, so let's keep our finge

Fight Club.

So there's this running joke in my circle of friends:   Facebook = Fight Club.   Because what's the first rule of Fight Club?   YOU DO NOT TALK ABOUT FIGHT CLUB.   So anyway, I go to this party last night, and all this girl wants to talk to me about is Facebook.   Facebook.   Ugh.   Remember, before Facebook, when we used to have actual conversations?   Stupid bitch.   [/end rant]   that's all I have to say.       check out my new story.     Peace.

New Orleans

Love it, hate it, don't care: you have to admit that there is a magic to the place that doesn't exist anywhere else.     Four years ago when Katrina destroyed most of the city, we were afraid that the magic was gone.           Today... the magic is back.     Magic!

Truth Versus Religion Revisited

About a year ago, I posted a Youtube video. I recently looked for it in the archives of my blog. I discovered that it had been banned! Why? Because people were offended by it. People are offended by truth, truth that much of the theology of Christianity and Judaism are in fact borrowed from the ancient Egyptian mythology. There are so many striking similarities that it scares me. And yet, out of this there are three relgions, two of which dominate the world today with over a third of the people

pointless, yet amusing...

So, with an extreme lack of anything to do lately and owing to the fact it was completed, I have been rereading Dom's In the Fish Bowl.. Saw an ad that I found particularly amusing, mostly because it is so off target its too funny.   cougarlife.com   I shouldn't be surprised about this, nevertheless too funny.

Is this typical?

Hello to you all! I hope all of you are having a good start to 2010. I know I am, as someone special has entered my life... you may possibly know him.... but I'm not gonna tell - since neither of us are ready yet!   Now onto the seriousness.   Has any of you who has written a story ever have to back track and add a whole new chapter after you've already pushed ahead with a chapter and finished it in order to better explain events in the new chapter?   To clarify - my current chapter tha

Scientist denounced as heretic and witch burned at the stake

Scientist Denounced as Heretic, Witch- Burned at the Stake     Dr. Ed Welsh was burned at the stake today by the Holy Church of the Global Warming Apocalypse, LLC.   Dr. Welsh's paper on Atmospheric Dynamics and Climate Change was deemed heresy by the Holy See of Global Warming and the execution order was signed by Pope Al Gore.   Given a chance to recant his heresy, Welsh refused.   Welsh was excommunicated, his holy science decoder ring impounded and held without bond for his trial b

Fail.

So, massive tech fail this morning.   Sitting on the computer, reading the overnight news from CNN, and suddenly the computer comes up with a '0% battery' warning. So I double-check the power connection, decide that everything's in order, then go back to reading my morning.   Anyway, two minutes later, the laptop cuts out.   So, in my wisdom, I phone HP tech support. Raj in Kolkata tells me 'I can do a software check, but it will cost you 33 dollars.' I say 'well, the laptop won't turn it

Really want this one to be happy

Eh, why us it I never seem to blog anymore unless it's about my romantic life? Regardless here's another one....     So a few weeks ago one of my best friends introduced me to a friend of his, Richard. Obviously everyone sees where this is going. We hung out in a big group a couple more times...then a smaller group...then the last few days we've been just hanging out one on one and we've decided that yes, let's see what happens, but let's take it slow. I think this is terrific! I always
