Somebody sent me one of those tell the people in your life how much you love them chain emails today. I’m sure you know the ones, everybody gets them and they’re all pretty much the same. What would you do if one day you woke up and someone you care about was gone? Would you …

I Beg To Differ
Minneapolis Minnesota’s chief of police wants the government to License the city’s beggars because he feels that something needs to be done to help police deal with aggressive panhandling. I think I can almost understand the logic behind this, but having said that, there are 2 really simple reasons why a system like this would …
Irony Rules
So how is everybody? Good? No? Yes? Whatever, let’s just get on with this. I wish I could figure out what the hell is up with the weather these days. Last week it was amazingly Summerish, then over the weekend there was snow on the ground and yesterday was just cold and crappy, but today …
What Does Freedom-Fighter Mean to You?
No, this isn’t even remotely close to deep or political. The deepest it goes is, wow people are out of it in my town. There’s this weird coffee store near me. It’s kind of a cool place. There’s a grinder working all the time, and they get blends of coffee that are supposedly made in …
Confusion Square?
Well, the people in the city where I live sure know how to make things interesting. For some unknown reason that no one can agree on, they’ve decided to rip apart the main hub of downtown. Some say it’s to fix sewer pipes, some say it’s to put in phone lines, some just stare mystified …
Hope I Didn’t Jynx It
Wow the weather is psycho. I’d just started to think that spring was here to stay. I’d been saying to people, wow, I think spring is really here. We actually didn’t have too many return visits from Old Man Winter! Perhaps I said that too many times, because I woke up to a nasty surprise! …
4 Things
1. Go read this. Somebody sent some hatemail to Five For Fighting and the guy who is the whole band actually wrote him back. It doesn’t end up being much of an exchange and Mr. For Fighting ended up being pretty cool about the whole thing, but the email he was sent is really funny …
Post Title Goes Here
Hey everybody. Sorry for not posting anything since Friday, though I’m not sure how sorry I should be since it’s not like you didn’t have anything to read. Big ups to Carin for keeping things going while I’ve been lazy, and for helping out in general. That’s really cool of her and I appreciate it. …
Old Songs and Being a Kid
When you were a kid, do you remember, along with the goofy kids’ songs you heard, you listened to your parents’ records? I know I did, some of them obsessively. I don’t even know why, I guess because mom and dad liked them. But I would even ask to listen to them! And now that …
Update on the Screaming Freak
Remember the other day when I wrote that crazy post about that guy who wouldn’t leave the bus unless he got his TV, oh so sorry, TV-VCR combo back that he left on the other bus? Remember when I thought he could have shot somebody? Well I wasn’t far off. My friend ran into him …
