There have been precious few times where a political issue has had me absolutely infuriated with white hot rage. Among these are the deployment of troops to Iraq in 2003 and the unnecessary tax increases in Nevada during that same year. All of the recent maneuvering around this bailout of failing banks similarly has […]

Just a small note to indicate that the war on the chickens is over… and I won. I walked past that house the other day and noticed that the chicken coop is entirely gone. I guess the county eventually took it seriously.

I've had trouble with birthdays the last few years. Every year since I turned twenty-four, it's been harder and harder.

Shauna and I have been talking about a new bed and bedroom set for a really long time. Our current bed is sagging quite a bit (both in the mattress and boxspring) and I've been using a TV tray as a nightstand for longer than I can recall. We were bumming around the house on […]

"Free is a very competitive price." That's been one of my catchphrases for a while now and rare are the occasions where it isn't true. This past week proved it in spades. I travel quite a bit for work and it's taken me all over the country, racking up frequent flyer miles left and right. […]
