Bonny, my `94 Pontiac Bonneville, finally kicked the bucket yesterday on my drive home. I’ve written about her recently - about an accident for which I still have not secured any funds for due to a State Patrol officer’s form-filling failure (damn you!). She was unable to deliver me home on this last [...]

As the latest Titan rocket launches into the atmosphere soon, the government’s plans of the greatest world-wide reality series near completion. If guesses are correct, this is part of the LACROSSE initiative that gives our government the ability to monitor pretty much the whole world, sub-terra and all. It allows them to [...]

It’s been sometime since Dan Tobin’s last entry on 365Dumps.com. The purpose of which, was to write a thought-provoking entry about Tobin’s #2’s for each day of a year. I think that maybe his fans are too critical in their judgment of this challenge. It’s not that Tobin must complete 365 entries [...]

Because he’s a wonderful, caring friend (and not because he only knows two people on Flickr), he passed along a free Pro account sponsorship to me. Now I’m a Pro user like the…er…pro’s. I’m very thankful [...]

My wife will be hosting The Vagina Monologues soon at her studio in downtown Gainesville. If you’re unfamiliar with the title, you’re living underneath a rock somewhere in a dark cave. The monologue started in the basement of the Cornelia Street Cafe in New York. Today, it has been put on by [...]

QuikTrip owns me. They have taquitos that, while not really taquitos, are quite good for the price. Today I noticed they also carry horchata smoothies! QuikTrip is a great source for latin snacks. Thank God for the Mexicans!
