It was a full day of guitar for me. First, I played guitar for my church (Terra Nova) in our morning service. Then I went to the John Petrucci clinic that afternoon. And I JUST got back from the Dream Theater concert in downtown Albany. I have to say it was a good day. The [...]
John Petrucci, a guitar master and prog-rock genius playing for the band Dream Theater, will be giving a clinic in Albany, NY this weekend while his band is in town doing a show… a show which I have tickets to. The clinic will be at Trick Shot Billiards [map] – right behind Parkway Music – [...]
The following is a discussion snippet from Compassion International’s blog. They recently had a blog post debating transparency versus marketing with respect to the best direction for the content of their blog. During the conversation I ran into Ashleigh, a 21-yr-old schoolgirl who seemed full of inexperience and strong opinions. For example, she touted environmental [...]

Legends of Hiro (created by Visual Noise) is a Japanese-style RPG (that’s role-playing game, not rocket-propelled grenade) in the vein of a bazillion other games, like Final Fantasy.

Ahh… I have fond memories of playing every mini-golf course in my hometown. I loved it – loved everything about it – but probably most liked that I was actually GOOD at it even as a youngster. Well here’s a little Flash goodie aptly named Mini-Putt that brings a little mini-golf to your browser. It’s [...]
Sky Chopper is a fun side-scrolling shoot-em-up by Crazy Monkey Games (gotta love that name). There’s lots of fast action, tough enemies, and plentiful power-ups. This game almost reminds me a little of Chopper Command on steroids. Ahh… the good ‘ole days. *sigh* Just a note – this file is large (>2MB) so you school [...]
Ahh… the good ole’ call-your-parents-before-a-firefight gag. That one never gets old. In fact, I think I’m going to start ending all my phone conversations with “Incoming! RPG! _click_”.
I have received enough feedback about my previous Iron Man post relating to the connection I drew (rather effortlessly, let’s admit) between Stark Industries and Lockheed Martin that I wanted to post about it individually. And speaking of… did anybody besides me notice that Stark Industries was a completely un-subtle spoof of Lockheed Martin Corporation, [...]
I'm a Christ-follower, compelled by my faith toward reason, which points directly toward conservatism. This world's daily onslaught of lunacy offends my intellect and senses, so this is my venue to blow off steam.
