Movie theaters are required to have closed caption devices available for the deaf. Drive-in theaters aren’t. Important to know if you or a loved one is deaf. I have a workaround for that! There’s some reasonable logistical reasons for drive in theaters to not be required to have caption systems. Still sucks, though. Another thing …

I’ll skip all the colorful story stuff and get right to the meat of this – there’s two very easy ways to bypass Tumblr’s adult content policy for some pages and discussions. This won’t work for everything, but a quick test of it showed it works fine for the web comic I was trying to …
Going into 2018, I would have said this would be the year I finally get over the financial hump – I came into it in a relatively good position. The contract gig I was doing was going strong, though it was supposed to be coming to an end – the budget for it ran out, …

I posted on Facebook about it, but I’ll repeat it here as an intro – I was on the phone with someone I’ve known since before I had my own company, and he’s been a customer of mine for basically as long as his company has existed. Bill Wiley & Associates is 15 years old. …
Yeah, I’m 47 now. Of course, I’m sitting behind a computer, working on a major project, and packing up my apartment. And, of course, thinking about the last year or so. As usual with me, it’s been an interesting ride. So, grab a cup of tea, coffee, or other favorite beverage, and come along for …
So, it’s the beginning of a new year, so it’s that time of year to say that I’ll be writing more in my blog. Seriously. 😉 . As with previous years, time will tell if I actually do it – though, I actually did write a number of things that were never published in 2017 …
If you read only one rambling blog post with no discernible point behind it today, you might want to pick a different blog post. But, since you’re already here, you might as well keep reading… Last week I decided it was time to refresh my Tai Chi (Taiji, Taijiquan, however you’d like to refer to …
When in Rome, right? People who know me know I’m not a pot head – it’s just never been my thing. But, since I was going to be in Colorado, I had multiple reasons why I wanted to do a little marijuana tourism. At the same time I’m writing this, I’ve already written an article …
Becoming more active in the community, and the world as a whole, has been a goal of mine for a while. I’ve not been as good at it as I should be. Facebook activism doesn’t count, and even that is sometime I carefully dole out (someday I’ll bother writing a blog post on the company …
OK, this one is a little less diatribe, and more point of view. I’ve thrown shade at marriage as a goal. I’ve talked about the idea of relationships that are a lot less “spend all your time with me”. I’ve talked about relationships where it’s just about existing together, not necessarily trying to achieve something. …
Cleo isn’t my cat – I don’t have a cat. My roommates have a cat. However, the cat has adopted me, loves the heck outta me, and spends a lot of time curled up on me, or hanging out in my office space. Here’s the thing: after a conversation with a friend, I got to thinking …

Every once in a while, during a conversation, I’ll end up blurting out this long diatribe on something or other without knowing I even started a diatribe: it’s just a surprise what coming out of my mouth. Sometimes it’s only even tangent to what’s being talked about – but, it was enough of a trigger …

The God / The Universe / Deity of Choice / Random Circumstances struck oddly, so I thought I’d post and talk about this for a moment. See, I was getting ready to write this week’s article for Advanced Mobile Healthcare, and I look at the list of topics we came up with last year (I …
Introduction This in one in what’s probably going to be a small series of posts looking back at old relationships. I’ve been married twice, and have had a number of long term relationships, and then there’s the various short term relationships (which I have very little interest in, and haven’t had much affect on my …

Introduction Sometimes we give a somewhat sinister amount of control to our significant others when it comes to who we call friends, without ever knowing it. That’s a really bad sign. If you haven’t already, be sure to head over and read part 1 of this series of posts, in particular the Introduction section that …
Introduction It’s not that everything changed overnight for me. The things that happened, they didn’t all happen in one day, and the effects were slow and gradual, until suddenly they weren’t. If you haven’t already, be sure to head over and read part 1 of this series of posts (this is part 10), in particular the …
Introduction So, how does one go to war with one’s self, and one’s past, and the things done to them? Damned good question, and I had to find – or, I suppose, create – an answer that fit me. If you haven’t already, be sure to head over and read part 1 of this series …
Wow. So, I’ve now seen the end of the Phantasm series. 37 years wrapped up in 5 somewhat low-budget movies. How does the last one stand up to the first one? Well, I recently got an awesome look back at the first one. Phantasm I Phantasm is strange. Even the original trailer is pretty strange, …
Kodachrome They give us those nice bright colors They give us the greens of summers Makes you think all the world’s a sunny day — Paul Simon, Kodachrome This is a world of “if I don’t do it, it must be stupid.” Seriously, Pokemon GO! is an example of this thinking – somehow, “adults who …
SO. I had planned on getting back to regular blogging, just as I was moving. Then, I went a week without regular Internet access. Oops. Since I was on a rush to get a couple things up and rolling, I decided I would hold off on getting back to it until after ICT ComicCon and …
“Don’t wanna live as an untold story Rather go out in a blaze of glory I can’t hear you, I don’t fear you” — The Struts, Could Have Been Me With a new place came the chance to reorganize a whole lotta my stuff, and my life. Obviously, reorganizing stuff is considerably easier than reorganizing …
