Last Tango on Union

It’s 10:30 pm on Wednesday and in less than 12 hours I’ll be living on Maui. I’ve got my bags & board packed, all my stuff stored and ready for shipping, and the Red Queen is now two weeks away from doing the very same. I just took a walk down the street to grab … Read more

Moving To Maui Goodbye Cocktail

Time tends to fly when you’re building things. A case in point? It took 2 years to build the Eiffel Tower in Paris. On a more local level, it took over 4 years to build the Golden Gate Bridge and 5 years to complete the Trans America Pyramid. Granted, my life isn’t much in comparison … Read more

Bastards have found me… now I get lame comment spam on older posts… bleh! On another note… Check This Out!

Get Your War On!

Recently, one of the more traffic’d political blogs, The Daily Kos, was blasted for some pretty insensitive remarks about the freelance warriors (also known as Mercenaries) killed in Fallujah, Iraq. What he said was pretty insensitive and I’m sure what ever rhetoric he’s spitting out really incensed some people out there… whatever. But, for the … Read more

The Value of Video Games

Now, when your mother, father, teacher or random person condemns you for playing video games, you can just point them to this study.
