Wes Clark for president, 2008

Monday, October 30th, 2006

The 2008 presidential election is just around the corner and as the forward thinking independent voter I am, I will be voicing my support here and now for retired 4 star general Wesley Clark. I believe that he is an exceptional leader with the knowledge, experience and international service to lead America in the right [...]

Humdrum? Bah, not if there are dominos!

Thursday, October 26th, 2006

Chain of dominos If I had 3 hours, countless video tapes, a plethora of lighters and one too many pieces of toast, I too might make such an extravagant line of dominos. But alas, I do not. Instead I will just watch this video and be like “oh man, that was totally cool!”

Jericho, 9:02

Thursday, October 26th, 2006

I’ve been watching Jericho since it aired 5 weeks ago, I haven’t missed an episode yet. If someone were to ask me what my favorite story line would be, Jericho’s would not be far from it. There’s something about a group of people banning together to survive a catastrophic event that strikes a chord with [...]

Youtubers

Wednesday, October 25th, 2006

There’s plenty to say about this video, but at the moment its 5:54 AM here in Saint Thomas and I haven’t found my way to bed yet (I got lost somewhere between the frig and the computer I think…). My best attempt at insight on this video, at this hour, with this lack of sleep, [...]

A bit too much

Monday, October 23rd, 2006

I love love, seriously I do! But even I, a self confessed romantic, think this stunt might be a bit much. A friend recently pointed me to this site where a man is attempting to raise enough money to run an ad during the super bowl where he will propose to his girlfriend. Pretty touching [...]

New theme

Monday, October 23rd, 2006

I decided to switch things up over here; at least visually that is. I loaded a new theme called Smooth Dirt by Robert Day and started my editing process. So far I’ve changed the function of the Page. Categories & Archive links and messed around a little bit with the post and comment formating. Overall [...]

I cannot sleep

Thursday, October 19th, 2006

Its 3:53 am and I cannot pull myself away from this computer so that I may lay down and get some rest. Its not like there is anything specifically keeping me awake, I just can’t bring myself to actually climb into bed and close my eyes. I think there may be something wrong with me.

1993, Internet Revolution

Wednesday, October 18th, 2006

Nearly 13 years ago while I was the ripe old age of 11 this news report was one sign of a revolution in the making – man how things have developed. Its amazing to see how much things have changed since then and how some things have remained oddly the same. We still use the [...]

Nada an Iron in sight

Tuesday, October 17th, 2006

Twenty minutes ago I found out that I have a job interview at 3 oclock today. Nineteen minutes ago I found out I nor my roommate has an iron. My dress shirt and slacks are currently hanging from the shower rod in my bathroom with the hot water draining from our tank… if that doesn’t [...]

The Covenant – Movie Review

Monday, October 16th, 2006

I recently went to the movie theatre (the only one here on St. Thomas) to see Man of the Year, the comedy about a comedian who runs for president (starring Robin Williams). However, since I could not understand the crappy recording of show times that played when I called the theatres show time phone line [...]
