Profile on President George W. Bush
President George W. Bush’s administration of our government since 2000 has been shameful. Bush has wrecked our government with his incompetence. Bush claims to be a Republican, but has shown himself to be much more of a Christian Democrat. The supposed hallmarks of Republican theory hold that the government should be small, spend little and regulate sparingly.… read more “Profile on President George W. Bush”
Happy Birthday Joshua Gross!
Today was my little brother Josh’s birthday party at my mom’s house, so I went down and hung out with him. He’s a stellar stud. Josh just turned 14 and he’s already over 6′ tall and damned big. I was about that height at his age, but I was bony. He’s pretty skinny too, but he has a big frame with broad shoulders and if he’s fed properly and starts lifting, he will be a beast.… read more “Happy Birthday Joshua Gross!”
Desperation
A clawing need inside that cannot be ignored
Painful desire crushing down relentlessly
Constant pressure to keep going.
Frantic movement with no purpose
The heavy foot stuck to the accelerator
Inescapable scorching fire, leaving nothing.

Joel is currently a Spendthrift Bastard
I usually try and save a good chunk of my income every month and have been good about it through my first 10 months of unemployment. However, over the last 4 months, I have not been paying enough attention to my financial situation and after inspecting my bank statements I have discovered I have over a thousand dollars less today than I did two months ago.… read more “Joel is currently a Spendthrift Bastard”
Ideas for Hollywood Sequels
Hollywood has run out of ideas for good new movies, so now it primarily does remakes and sequels… Here are some I would like to see:
-301: The Vengeance- Instead of having 300 Greeks kick the living crap out of millions of Persians, we give 300 Persians the opportunity to attempt an assault on one large grapefruit.… read more “Ideas for Hollywood Sequels”
Mrs. Dalloway by Virginia Woolf
I just finished reading Mrs. Dalloway by Virginia Woolf. Mrs. Dalloway is all about one day in a woman’s life in late 1800s London. She is an upper-class woman about to throw a party that evening and much of the story involves her interactions with people and those people’s interactions with other and the intertwinings of their lives.… read more “Mrs. Dalloway by Virginia Woolf”
