According to Facebook, my only earthly accomplishments are joining Tau Beta Pi, living in the ghetto with John, and being a part of the Asslove Ballers. Sounds about right...

It's weird how your tastes change over time. I remember when I first got the self titled Alice in Chains album, I didn't like it at all. Now, I think it's by far Alice in Chain's best full studio album. And likewise, at first I hated the song "Frogs" (in fact, I specifically remember complaining to Stuart about how much it sucked), but now it's ( Read more... )

1. These college freshmen keep looking younger. I'm starting to feel older all the time. Some kid at the gym called me "sir" the other day. Man I feel old. And it doesn't help that I did some monster dead lifts today, so I'm hobbling around like an old man, too ( Read more... )

So I've been playing a lot of X-Men Legends lately (it's a lot of fun), and it got me to wondering: If all of us were exposed to toxic goo or ionizing radiation, what mutant powers would we develop? In my own humble opinion, here's a possibility ( Read more... )

This will probably only interest Geoff, but this interview/criticism of Terry Goodkind and his books is pretty good, for someone interested in his works ( Read more... )

Well, G's gone. It sucks ( Read more... )

It's hard to believe it's already August. Every summer, regardless of whether I'm working or not, always seems to fly by. This one has been pretty good so far, I can't really think of a better one, even though I did have to stick around here and 'work' the whole time ( Read more... )
