Four Years Ago Today
On November 20, 2003, my family endured one of the toughest things it had to go through when my grandmother suddenly and unexpectedly passed away four days before Thanksgiving. The hardest part about it for me was that I was in the Air Force, stationed at Lajes Field at the time and had no way [...]

I don’t know if it’s simply because it’s late and I’m a bit tired or if it actually is pretty comedic, but there’s this YouTube user named Buffalax who takes foreign music videos and subtitles them in English — only they’re not translations, but they’re actually literal phonetic interpretations of the lyrics, according to him.

A few points of order: THIS FIRST POINT IS HUGE. As part of my “Visionary” music CD project, I have finished the instrumentation to my first track, entitled “Set Your Eyes To Things Above.” It’s got a downtempo, Middle Eastern vibe, along with a hip hop/dance flavor to it. And I’m going to let you [...]

16 November 2007
Last night I blogged about how frustrated I was after seeing Oregon lose 34-24 to Arizona, thus removing my beloved Ducks from the short list of teams competing for a national football championship. Well today, that frustration has turned to sympathy and respect for Dennis Dixon, our quarterback who went down awkwardly on his knee [...]

Tonight I dreamed that Dennis Dixon was injured in the Oregon Ducks’ football game against Arizona early on, and the team never recovered — losing by about ten points and all our national championship aspirations being torn to shreds with it. Oh wait. That actually happened. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

15 November 2007
As everyone knows, I have a very different taste in music. I tend to enjoy more electronically-based music, even if it’s not flat-out house music.

“That’s unpossible!” Actually, due to the wonders of Photoshop and trick photography, last night I was able to stand out in the fog outside my house and take a photo consisting of three incarnations of myself. Here’s the result…

12 November 2007
I guess the group of veterans includes me, since I did serve in Operation Iraqi Freedom. What I did over there was peanuts, compared to what most other people over there are doing. I remember going out on convoys and being so scared the first time I went out under the cover of darkness — [...]
