I don’t have much time to dilly-dally tonight, so I’m going to make this relatively short ( Read more... )

I’ve wanted to do a post for a while now, but as usual, my business with other things, plus overall laziness, meant that I have held off until now on doing one. As will be the norm, here’s the list of crap on my mind ( Read more... )

It’s been a long, long while since my words last graced the hypertext pages of this blog, and yet for my grandiose return, I choose to expound not on the latest music, my latest exploits, or even my latest consumer quandary concerning dress shoes. No, friends, I’ve chosen my latest target, and it’s a real person this time: one Mr. Robert Redford, ( Read more... )

As a young man in college, it’s not often that I have the money to play a game of low-stakes poker; after all, $40 is something my gas tank needs more than some Indian casino ten minutes down the road.

These past few days have nearly overloaded my senses to the point of burnout, but thankfully I have gotten to this point in time with my mental faculties intact. The title gives away the overarching themes of my weekend, but the details are considerably juicier than that. It all started about three days ago ( Read more... )

For a long time now, I have found it extremely hard to get motivated for any productive activities in my life. Even now, I strain to type the words of this post, simply because I'm unable to shake off the cobwebs of fatigue that impede my mind from forming good, articulated sentences.
