In a world where every second counts…
From Reuters: By Jim Wolf WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Those eager to put 2008 behind them will have to hold their good-byes for just a moment this New Year's Eve. The world's official timekeepers have added a "leap second" to the last day of the year [...]
Possible New Year Resolutions
Take up smoking crack or what ever it is you do with it so that I can give it up. Quitting smoking cigarettes felt like such a triumph and my coffee quitting failed miserably, I think my goal has to be more realistic than java departure. Write [...]
New Year’s, I’ve nothing to really add.
I was reflecting on my New Year's approach over the past few years- only one in which I actually had a date since becoming a grown up. That probably explains why, for the most part, I've been pretty 'meh' about celebrating. A few years I went by [...]
My New Favorite Documentary
Most every one I know is religious and it's not a big shock that this creates somewhat of a barricade of interests. The following clip from Youtube of Religulous- a documentary that I had been waiting to see for quite some time is decent example of [...]

Arctic Storm 08 Part Deux
Just when you thought it was safe to go back to work. Yes in a way it's a winter wonderland, but it's also a wretched mess; especially when you're safe at home drinking Merlot and the power flickers. "We're all going to die!!!" <- you text your [...]
Pretty falling white flakes of DEATH!
Oh what a difference a day makes. It started to snow about 11 this morning and now all the ground is filled with the white fluffy flakes of DEATH! It's hard to believe these days that I'm from Alaska because of how giddy I feel when the snow [...]
Well- What the hell happened?!?!
(crappy cell phone pictures- my apologies) I'm still trying to thaw out my feet from standing barefoot (like a moron) out in my yard last night trying to figure out what was going on. 9 police cars, a firetruck and two ambulances were crowding the [...]
It’s okay, it’s made from recycled SoCal’s.
I stayed home today and the weather was extremely mild. Mild in the sense where the ice on the ground and snow started melt away. The cold wind was biting at times, snow came and went enough times where I felt like I was waiting to jump in on a game [...]
