Debacle 2008

October 8, 2008 · Leave a Comment 

Well, the second debate came and went with as much excitement as one would expect whenever two guys get together and try to convince an entire nation that they are the only ones who can save us from ourselves. While I am well aware of the fact that one of these men will in fact be elected as our next President, I feel moved to say what I have said before: I wish our choices were a bit better. Tonights debate was yet one more sterling example of just how prosaic a Presidential Election can be. As expected, Obama comported... [Read the full story]

Reason number 1,462 and 1,463 why I suck as a guitar player:   1, 462: I will never, E V E R be like George….and frankly, it just makes me sad. 1, 463: I will never own one Soldano…much less TWO SOLDANO’s.

Caterina…Italian for “amazing”

June 5, 2007 · 4 Comments 

It’s been a pretty hectic weekend: cook-outs,laundry and of course work, work, work. I’m not complaining, mind you…because I happen to be in a position to be doing some pretty cool work. As cool as it is, the biggest bonus, however is that while I work on computer graphics all weekend, my “spare” laptop finds itself employed as the most expensive DVD player I have ever purchased. In all honesty, there really isn’t much to complain about. Tonight, after watching Casino Royale for like... [Read the full story]

Ignorance is bliss

September 3, 2008 · Leave a Comment 

Every now and then you just have to stop, raise your head skyward and thank the good lord for taking the time out of his grueling  schedule long enough to ensure that our world is properly populated with the requisite number of intellectual giants. Oh, I am sure there would be some healthy disagreement in certain circles where certain people are concerned; but by and large we all know where the “epic level” genius is and where it isn’t. The list would be endless and full of names we all recognize and... [Read the full story]

Happy 232nd, Marines

November 10, 2007 · Leave a Comment 

Ronald Reagan once said:  “Some people live an entire lifetime and wonder if they have made a difference in the world. Marines don’t have that problem.” As is usually the case, today gave me pause to think about that and what it all means. To most people November 10th is merely another day, there are many of us out here who remember what today stands for. Most don’t talk about it much, there really isn’t a reason to, most folks just wouldn’t understand. I do, and there isn’t a... [Read the full story]

Butterhogs, week 1

September 9, 2008 · Leave a Comment 

Well folks, the fall season is nearly upon us, and that means Football! More importantly, it means “ButterHog” football and this year, unlike no other, the team is ready to hit the ground running and will be taking no prisoners. For the uninitiated, the “Butterhogs” are my fantasy Football team. I’ve been in a league created by my brother several years ago. Each year brings the promise of grid-iron glory to the Butterhog camp, but sadly, by mid October it gives way to frustration and despiration... [Read the full story]

Ive never been very good at goodbyes. I must confess that most times I do my best to avoid them at all costs. Just not my forte I suppose. It’s rather ironic that today... [Read more]
