I don’t know very much about horse racing. I mean, I probably know as much as most people do, but a lot of people knowing a little about something is not the same thing as a few people knowing a lot about it. Basically what I know is that jockeys have to be really small,… Continue reading December 21, 2013

I’ve been determined to write this blog for a few weeks now. Not that I’m going to write it, I don’t think I was going to say everything I first thought, only because between then and now I’ve learned a few more things about determination, but we’ll see where this rabbit hole leads to. There… Continue reading December 18, 2013

First song to set you on your way. One of my favorite jokes isn’t really much of a jokes. Most of my friends will tell you that many of my jokes aren’t really much, at least from a humor standpoint. They might be right. My favorite joke involves an eight year old boy, a thirty… Continue reading December 14, 2013

I didn’t think today’s would have a soundtrack. Not going to lie, the thought of writing today’s with music in the background is tough. But I heard this song today and it just seemed right to start it all off with. The first part of this blog might read as conceited. I don’t mean it… Continue reading December 11, 2013

I didn’t pick the first song in today’s soundtrack because it is 78 and beautiful here and not those two things everywhere else. (I know better than intentionally pissing off my audience.) I like the message that JB got when he wrote this song. As I was writing the title, I almost put 1941 as… Continue reading December 7, 2013

Originally I was going to write about determination. Kind of surprising that word has not come up more often in my writing. In a sense it is a strong relative of motivation. To be motivated to do something you must have the determination to see it through. Of course, seeing as how my motivation has… Continue reading December 4, 2013

I’m not going to say it’s cold outside for two reasons. Reason one is that I live in one of the warmest places in the United States. If I say it’s cold, ninety five percent of the people I know will rail against me. (The other five percent live here.) Reason two is that it… Continue reading November 30, 2013

As promised, here is my cliffhanger. This will be my longest blog by far, but the fact is the majority of it is fiction, so settle in. The reason why I think this speaks of faith is because I have kept almost everything I’ve written even as I knew that most of it would never… Continue reading November 27, 2013

For those of you who read my Facebook posts (and I’m assuming that’s most of you because if you didn’t you probably wouldn’t be reading this right now) you know about my comic and cosmic misadventure this week. For the unfortunately lucky readers I may have snagged in my web who don’t know, I misplaced… Continue reading November 23, 2013

I know I’m skating by on a technicality here; yes this will be published on Wednesday, just like it is every week, but it is far later on Wednesday than it normally is. So late in fact that most of you who read this won’t even see it until Thursday. I’d like to say I… Continue reading November 20, 2013
