Who's on First?

Tomorrow, John and I will be enjoying one of America’s favorite past times. We will be watching the Mariner’s take on the Detroit Tigers( not to mention one of the best catchers in all of baseball)

In the spirit of baseball I came across this awesome video I would like to share. John posted [...]

All of the joy of subtitles without the video to distract you

I found a collection of videos at Film School Rejects that caught my attention. Instead of watching some of my favorite and highly quoted scenes from movies – why not read them – curious? Watch this bit from V for Vendetta.

Creepy movies

I’m normally not one to watch creepy movies because I’m quite jumpy. In a typical horror/suspense flick the script will call for a fake jump – you know – a random loud noise or a cat jumping into the scene to get everybody on the edge of their seats. While most people remain calm [...]

What a week

In Iraq I really only knew a few things to be true – I knew that it was going to be hot during the day and I also knew that it was going to be dark and noisy at night.

. When I finally left I rode out on dark and noisy military [...]

Still alive – I swear

If you visit this site with any frequency you’d notice that I seldom go a few days without making some sort of post. Well, you can consider this that post. I’ve got a larger and more detailed post thats coming down the pipeline complete with photos and videos but that will come later. I’ve [...]

I’m so glad to be home

While I haven’t yet reached the west coast I have arrived in America and its quite nice to be back. I’m still rocking the same clothes that I’ve been wearing for the past 60 or so hours. Traveling via military channels seldom goes without a hitch and I had quite a few.

I was [...]

Wonderful Deutchland

Well, I’m halfway home and I’m trying to type this out on a keyboard that was made for germans… das ist nicht so gut.

I’m in Leipzig at the moment and I’ve only got a 8 hour flight ahead of me before I get to my connecting flights in the states. All in all, [...]

Getting out of dodge

Well, after 130 some odd days my time in dodge is finally over and I am getting the heck out of here. I’ve got more time to kill before my plane gets here but I don’t have to sleep another night (or day in my case) in Iraq.

The most baffling thing about my [...]

Movin' On In

Last weekend was a very busy one for my family and I. We spent all day Saturday moving mine and John’s stuff into our new house. As it happens on move in days, it rained most of the time. It wasn’t too bad though. John and I had wrapped up the stuff from his [...]

The Economics Party

Scott Adams, scribe of the popular Dilbert comic, may be on to something with his “economics party”. I’ve been intrigued by economics for the past year or two and I often wonder why our government decides to ignore economists. These guys study markets and how they interact – they can typically tell us if [...]
