I deny afterlife, reincarnation or rebirth. But…
I think I really am a Buddhist after all.
Because, you know, those four truths work, make sense; and the path just seems reasonable.
Besides, how hard is it for an atheist to align with a “religion” that rejects the existence of a soul while at the same time affirming the […]

As mentioned before, I’ve been busy — as in the case of this post. For the December newsletter at work I thought it would be a “fun” idea to make a comic insert featuring Dot and Lionel.
The sketching wasn’t the rough part; figuring out how to break up the actions was tougher. And the blueline […]
Very, VERY busy.
Published by November 27th, 2007 in General Foolishness and Advertising Matters. 0 CommentsGood golly. So many new things to share. The Mac Mini is performing magnificently, which is great, but sheesh, I’ve been heavily at it since it arrived (in time for my Big Four-Oh, FWIW).
Graphics and — yes — video will follow soon. But not now. It’s all Top Secret™.

Countdown to Mac 3: Now.
Published by November 17th, 2007 in General Foolishness and Advertising Matters. 0 CommentsI am pretty stoked right now. I just learned that my freshy-ordered Mac Mini is about to ship.
So TF what, right?
Well, I’ve been staggering along here with an iBook, a 600 MHz machine with 640 MB RAM,* for longer than I care to admit. Well, actually, I bought it new, and you can do the […]
It’s all over the wire today that there are quantitative differences to be found in brain development between kids who have been diagnosed as ADHD and those who have not.
A longitudinal study by NIMH and McGill University seems to show that nearly 225 kids aged 6 to 16 have less dense neuronal structure if they’ve […]
just proves I need to look into that Guitar Hero thing all the kids seem to like.
Because, godfuckitall, I could so play this. And sing it. Yeah, kick your hairless little asses right into next Tuesday.

It’s fun to lose and to pretend

Fogerty at his best. Pure clean CCR.
Yeah, more running. But why not? Jesus, these guys were good. Jesus, these guys were good.

Whoa, thought it was a nightmare,
Lord, it’s all so true.
They told me don’t go walkin’ slow, the devil’s on the loose.
Better run through the jungle.
Whoa, don’t look back to see.
Thought I heard a rumblin’ […]
The second prettiest song I think New Order has ever done.
The guitars, the guitars especially, the guitars.
Answer me
Why won’t you answer me?
I can’t recall the day that I last heard from you.
Well, you don’t get a town like this for nothing, so here’s what you’ve got to do:
You work your way to the top […]
It’s not every day that you look out from your bedroom window and see someone getting busted by the cops.
At least, I would hope not.
But now, it’s happened to me twice.
Years ago in Tucson I had a bust happen, literally, on my porch. I heard scuffling, words like I got him, and went outside when […]
Vezzosi said previous research has indicated the hands of the Apostles in the painting can be substituted with the notes of a Gregorian chant, though so far no one had tried to work in the bread loaves.
…coming from an article wherein an Italian musician discusses his uncovering of musical notes in da Vinci’s Last Supper.

It’s not what I envisioned when I was living in the brick house, but it doesn’t suck. The walls are plain white, no Lego-inspired color schemes (but, you know, that’s flexible); there’s a bunk bed, a beanbag, some bookshelves (pre-stocked already with a few decent titles, but awaiting his tastes), a dresser, some stuff on […]
Sam McGowen, District Superintendent of Mascoutah Community schools, together with the administration of Mascoutah Middle School. On Friday last, they assigned a thirteen-year-old girl two days’ detention for a public display of affection — which was in truth merely the girl giving two friends brief hugs.
“I feel it is crazy,” said Megan, who was to […]
