The weather is warming up and there’s nothing like driving home from work on a Friday with the windows down, sunroof open, and music blastin’! These Flash Fridays are becoming particularly meaningful for me as I’m steeped in some Flash development at work and personally. Maybe someday I’ll even post my OWN Flash [...]
I love it when mobs of unruly youth create civil disorder in an attempt to demonstrate that they are very peaceful and law-abiding citizen-hopefuls. Nothing like civil unrest and voter intimidation to portray your love of this democracy. And don’t forget the American-cursing union labor activists (read socialists) holding signs showing the “real” [...]
At times during my recent perusal of our nation’s so-called Southwest I would let my eyes wander past the scantily clad showgirls to the dusty horizon. I couldn’t help but wonder why, of all places, they picked a desert to build Las Vegas? Yeah… yeah… I hear you mumbling something about Las Vegas [...]
I live in the socialist state of New York. We have some of the worst taxes, fees, licenses, registrations, rules, regulations, and surcharges in the entire nation (if not THE worst). Granted, when compared with many other countries none of us here have anything to complain about. But right now I’m talking [...]
I’m back and because we’re all sick of hearing about Vegas let’s wrap things up, shall we?
It was dry… twelve percent humidity is only good if you have lunger. There are many perverts who are rich and like to gamble… they were stumbling around drunk almost everywhere. If you want the proverbial $4.99 [...]
This is my first time in Vegas, and it is truly crazy out here. Went into Prada and saw $650 shoes that were ugly and tacky beyond measure. This is the land of excess… so many people here drop green like they’ve got five hours to live. Watching fools pour $10K a [...]
I’m in Vegas… so what could be more appropriate than a Vegas-style game of striking it rich? NO, no silly… not a casino game, there are a bazillion of those. I’m talking about the good stuff… GOLD! It’s Flash Friday and time to reel in some of the ‘Au‘, so don’t be [...]
We leave for Vegas. While Tami is at a conference every day this weekend I will have all day to kill time. But don’t fear… what possible trouble could I get in in Vegas?!?
I’ll be taking mucho pictures… and I’m hoping I can post consistently while I’m away, but we’ll see. If [...]
One of my favorite movies is The Red Violin [wiki, imdb]. It’s an exquisitely told tale of a haunting and perfect violin with a mysterious quality that enchants various possessors over centuries and continents to eventually end up in the hands of Samuel “Snakes on a Plane” Jackson in modern day Montréal. Wonderfully [...]
Growing up you almost always form a certain stereotypical elderly figure in your mind… whether from TV or movies or whatever… whose sole job is to wait for the opportune moment to hold out a bony old finger and, with a dentured whistle, blurt out something like “I can remember back… when we didn’t have [...]
