Other than UFC predictions, I haven’t written much lately. Sorry. Most of my friends who read my blog tend to not care about MMA, so as far as they’re concerned, I haven’t been writing anything for a very long time.

I’ve had a lot of things on my mind, most of which are things that I [...]

So, I had a birthday. I don’t care much for adults celebrating birthdays. I started writing a bit about that when Rob told me it was similar to a Patton Oswalt bit; I dropped it. I just listened to the bit, it’s not similar enough, so the pen is back on paper. Suck it Rob! [...]

Is there a better search engine than Google? I ask because I’ve relied on Google for pretty much everything I’m looking for. Usually, it’s great. Occasionally, Google is of no help.

I do search for odd things at times, so I kind of understand it, but I can’t possibly be the only person who thinks about [...]

I love self-checkout lines. I like when a business says, you know what, the customer can do this.

Remember when fast food restaurants let you get your own soda? Here’s your cup, go to town. Great, now I’m in control. I can determine the amount of ice. I can mix and match the sodas if I [...]

I don’t remember how old I was, but I do remember at some point in my school days learning about the structural marvel that is the arch. What sticks out in my mind is my teacher saying the most important part of the arch is the keystone.

The keystone, the wedge shaped block in the [...]

Sure, helmet laws might be pushing the boundaries of the safety police, but they’re just protecting children. It’s the same as the laws that require car seats for ever increasingly larger children. I mean, I don’t think fourteen year olds need a car seat, but what about the twelve year olds? Shouldn’t they be protected?

You’re [...]

We bought my son a bike last week and a helmet along with it. I asked if he really needed the helmet seeing as when he’s on the bike his head only an inch or two higher than normal.

Yes, he does.

It’s got training wheels, so he shouldn’t be whipping violently towards the ground from [...]

I may be the only person in the world, but I am not a fan of the website People Of Walmart. Yeah, I know, it’s a super popular website that pokes fun at all of those weirdoes at America’s most popular retailer, but I just can’t get into it. It’s not like I don’t enjoy [...]

When I first heard of it, I was very excited about Google Wave. What got me was the way it was introduced. The Google rep posed the question, “What if e-mail were invented now, what would it look like?”

It’s an interesting question and their answer, Wave, was a good one. I can’t describe it accurately [...]

As many of my friends and family know, I’m not a huge fan of President Obama. He seems like a decent person, a brilliant politician, and someone who wants to grow the size and reach of government well beyond our current level. To me, the current level is unacceptably large to a people who want [...]
