This girl I used to work with once told me that when William F. Buckley was young, he was a total babe. She was a rocker chick; leathery longhairs were more her type than tweedy iron jawed intellectuals.

So, something like four years after the fact, I finally got around to plugging him into a google image search.

Sometimes I think I really miss smoking weed. Then I smoke some and feel real paranoid and uncomfortable and regret the whole thing.

In general, I think smoking weed is a better vice than drinking, and I really miss watching movies stoned. (I don't miss the drive to or from the movie theater, though.) I also do like being really confident about passing drug tests,...

I've decided to update my blog for the first time in, like, forever. I just watched the second Ultimate Avengers movie. It was OK, but couldn't really hold my full attention.

But, just so all 2 of my blog readers now where I stand, here's an excerpt from an article I wrote...

I went to a police station today. No big deal, because of the nature of my job I go to them a lot. It's always sort of weird being in them and being neither a cop nor a criminal. I overheard the dispatcher laugh about a call that came in -- apparently some dude was banging on some car in some parking lot with a...

I'm jealous of pro ball players for a lot of reasons. But when it rains, I feel that jealous sting the most. I work in a climate controlled office, but when it rains, energy just drains from my body. My head feels like its filled with cotton and I can't work or even think straight.

It rained today and I wish that there were a...
