Last time was pretty serious. Well, maybe not serious--maybe more like incredibly straight forward and academic. And <em>boring.</em> So I thought I’d get a little loose this time—talk about something I like, with the stipulation that I tell you at least twice that it’s something I like. And that would be assigning a soundtrack for... Continue Reading →
The Turning Point
I've danced around the topic a few times on this site, careful to not talk about the actual experience or give any details about it, but, at this point, I don't see a reason to hide that I work at Borders. I'm still not going to talk about working there or any of the people... Continue Reading →

The Death of Ultimate Spider-Man… By the Amazing Spider-Man’s Hand
After work today, I met my good friend @GentlemanMonstr for some Five Guys and a stop at Midtown Comics. As the undisputed overlord of the comic world (in my opinion), the Gentleman had something obscure in mind. For me, it was the exact opposite: Ultimate Spider-Man #160. In all honesty, it was something I wasn't looking forward... Continue Reading →
The PDF That Just Wouldn’t Die
I'm not sure how it is for you, but Photoshop projects always take longer than I expect. I have an idea and think, I can get that done in an hour tonight. But then I get in front of my computer and realize I just can't edit a part of the project the way I'd intended... Continue Reading →

Getting Closer
I realized I have something time sensitive to say, so I have to try to belt it out before that company I just mentioned arrives. If you haven't already heard about it, you should know about the Met's Get Closer photography contest. It's not a huge deal; you photograph a piece from the permanent collection... Continue Reading →
It’s Been a While
It's been just about a month since my last post, begging the question "What the $#(*?" Well, I'll tell you what the $#(*. Life. My best friend's moving to Seattle in two weeks, an event I found out about around two weeks ago. Aside from being extremely bummed about it, my weekends have been absorbed... Continue Reading →
Gamer Quirks
Some time last month, while chatting with a friend of mine (I don't remember who, but let's call him Ted) about our favorite games, I mentioned that one of mine was Flashback. To this Ted naturally replied: "Never heard of it." So I explained: Flashback was a PC game that was ported to consoles in... Continue Reading →
A New Methodology
Writing used to be a feel good, hobby-ish thing for me. I would sit down and stare at my computer and brainstorm about what would happen next. And more often than not, an answer would not come. But that was always okay--cause it would come in time! As long as I was getting something done... Continue Reading →
