NaNoWriMo

It's a novel. Written in a month. I have no idea how to write a I novel. I have both written words and read many novels, so I suppose it can't be too hard. My story? Mostly True Tales from my Somewhat Fictional Life. It's me and what I've done, only...better. I ...

How to get out more

"I got healthy and I got out." How I did it: Had surgery and was trapped in my house for two months. Realized I had an infection for two years that killed my energy. I gave away everything that kept me inside and vowed to never, ever sit around again. Lessons & ...

Small businesses the real casualty of credit mess

For week we've been hearing about mortgage companies shut down, banks being bailed out and corporations being forced into bankruptcy. No one can pay their bills, but those at the top are getting enough money not only to keep going, but not lay off anyone either. So who pays? Small businesses. They ...

Simmonberry and Wikipedia

Wikipedia users need to get a life. Simmonberry, a slang term for ESPN personalities Bill Simmons (The Sports Guy) and Matthew Berry (The Talented Mr. Roto) was deleted by user Tone because the neologism was unknown to Google and allegedly had no sources. Does Tone listen to the BS Report (Simmons's weekly ...

The ledge

It wasn't too far away. He could could see over, could see everything on the other side. Hope, despair, success and failure, it was all there. Which road he took depended entirely on how hard he was willing to work. It was possible, however unlikely, that he was ready for it. His ...

Why I don’t use Foursquare, Gowalla or any other location-based services (anymore)

The concept behind location-based services like Foursquare and Gowalla is fantastic. Check in using GPS, see who you know (or who you don't) is around and maybe even earn a free drink or discounted meal. It's like playing a massive game of bingo and it's fun. For a while. (Now that ...

What can 100 people do with their love of art?

Art is a gift. It changes the giver AND the recipient. But art, like a a true straight line, doesn't actually EXIST. All we can see is the physical representation of the artist's true vision of the world. And for this, we should all be grateful. I've purchased ONE piece of art ...

Make me proud

My dad is a 61-year-old safety trainer and salesman. He's owned his own business, helped raise three kids and has been in the same house since 1981. He's the hardest-working person I know, is never late and hasn't ever given up in the 30 years I've been alive. This past August, ...

Going bare

We wear expensive shoes because we're told they protect our feet. We wear certain styles of clothing because we're told we'll be accepted if we do. We act a certain way in order to fit in. All of these act as barriers to what's really there. Similar to force-feedback on any ...
