Character Names
So I went through all my old (circa 1998) and new stories and "wrote down" all the names of all of the characters that were creative. (In other words, characters with names like Jack and Jill didn't make the list ( Read more... ) -
The waiting is over
Well, I got the job. I'll be working as a Web Content Manager at Hanesbrands Inc. Yes, all one word like that. Drives me nuts, too.

Cinco de cinco, eh?
Anyone who went out for a drink yesterday who has bitched about immigrants to the US in the past six months should be dragged out into the street and beaten, naked.
Cinco de Mayo is a Mexican holiday, okay, people!?!? -
