I am a pretty big Stephen Lynch fan. He is incredibly crude, but (AND!) I find him absolutely hilarious.
To make a long story short, I was watching his Live at El Rey DVD, and I heard a new song. It really tickled me pink… you know, “funny ’cause it’s true” and all that, […]

Today I received an email from a friend, directing me to sign a petition. Since the link may die, I thought I would transcribe it here:
To: US Congress
In honor of Jessica Marie Lunsford we ask that a better sex offender tracking system be implemented. We recognize that it is not enough to simply […]

The practical portion of my EMT-I registry is now done and over with. While not exactly difficult, all the nerves in the air made it anything but simple. To make a long story short, I passed the practicals, and as I am fairly certain that I passed the written too, the only things […]

The written part of my EMT-I registry test was today. I am sure that I passed, although the exam turned out to be harder than I imagined it would be.
Although annoyed when we first began the program, my classmates and instructor had soon gotten used to my propensity to laugh at the ridiculous portions […]

Today was a very nice day, weather-wise. It was in the 60s with a bit of sun — a perfect day to finally take the GS out of winter storage and get it ready for riding. Since, it’s a 2001, and since it has 7450 miles, it was also the perfect time to […]

I have returned, and it has only been 5 months, or so.
It has been my pattern in the last few years to become increasingly distracted, as my workload/stress increases. For example, while I was in college, every time the end-of-semester finals rolled around, I found myself reading an inordinate amount of fiction — basically, […]

if anyone filthy rich reads this, i want this thing:
Force Dynamics Driving Simulator
(watch the video if you're dubious)
… that or a flight simulator… those are even better

You will soon bring joy to someone.
that was in my fortune cookie tonight and, as we all know, fortune cookies never lie.  of course, the message is just a touch too enigmatic for my tastes.
for example, there is the ever-popular “in bed” variation, which, to be honest, wouldn't be all that bad. or, i […]

here is a joke i got from my german friend.  enjoy…
On a group of deserted islands in the middle of nowhere, the following people are stranded:
Two Italian men and one Italian woman
Two French men and one French woman
Two German men and one German woman
Two Greek men and one Greek woman
Two English men and one English […]

what is the connection between these two songs?
Utah Saints - Sick
Apollo 440 - Krupa
(hint: look at the lyrics)

today, i left my house a little before three, which is very close to the time that school buses drop kids off after school.  so, as i was leaving my neighborhood, i had to battle at least a dozen cars for a little space on the road and a chance to get out of the […]

i need your arms around me, i need to feel your touch
i need your understanding, i need your love so much
you tell me that you love me so, you tell me that you care
but when i need you baby, you're never there
on the phone long, long distance
always through such strong resistance
first you say you're too […]

they say it is always darkest before dawn.  well to that i say, it sucks being in the arctic circle in the wintertime…
i do so miss white nights =/
