It won’t be a surprise to anyone that reads this site on a regular basis, but I’m supporting John Kerry for president this year. There has been talk that both candidates are second tier politicians that limit our choices, but that does not mean that there is not a clear choice. I won’t [...]
This entry is part of an occasional series of articles written by Nicole, the blonde genius that taught me how to use note cards. She has her own views (some stuck to the back of her car) and I’m presenting them here completely unedited. As always, thanks for reading.
Austin is a pretty liberal, [...]
I took a few days off last week and we went to the Texas State Fair in Dallas. I’ve lived all twenty-seven years of my life in this state, but I’d never been to the fair before. There were people that told me it was a lot of fun, and the photos I’d [...]
I’ve never been a morning person. When confronted with the startling news that I’m going to be late to work if I don’t get up, I usually offer a slightly slurred, “yeah, in a minute” in response. Sadly, this doesn’t fool Nicole, the morning person who has just spent countless minutes trying to [...]
I have a great deal of compassion for anyone that spends long hours stuck in traffic during their daily commute to work. It only takes me about seven minutes to go from my front door to my desk, but it’s often seven minutes of hellish road rage. I’ve accepted the possibility that Austin [...]

“Listen, I got news for ya, it’s nice to be involved with somebody who’s interested in something other than Nick-at-Nite. Now he’s got a grip on reality, he’s happy, he’s well adjusted.” – Elaine Benes, 1992
I’ve written about it before, but I have a hopeless addiction to Nick-at-Nite. And let’s face it, outside of [...]
Mel Brooks announced this week that he plans to film a sequel to his classic 1987 sci-fi spoof Spaceballs. There is a strong possibility that it will be ready for release shortly before Star Wars: Episode III hits theaters in the Spring of 2005.
I’m sure that everyone has a movie from their childhood that [...]
It was actually my intention to post on another topic tonight, but it wouldn’t be right to miss offering a few comments on the first presidential debate that took place earlier this evening.
The simple truth is that Kerry won. He made his points better than Bush, he looked and sounded better than Bush, and [...]
