Slow vs Fast Zombies: A Roman Holiday Tale

By on March 30, 2013 in Entertainment & Pop Culture, Ruminations, Science & History

In honor of this year’s Easter holiday and (hopefully not coincidental) AMC’s The Walking Dead’s third season finale falling on the same day, I wanted to take this opportunity to explain why slow zombies are better than fast zombies. This may be my most important blog to date. Zombies represent many things to many people. […]

My Sphere of Power Theory

By on March 14, 2013 in Ruminations

Several years ago, I began thinking about an idea I eventually dubbed the “Sphere of Power.” I had recently moved to Washington, DC to begin working for the federal government. Power is in the air in that city. I worked within a few square miles of many of the world’s most powerful people and their […]

Pioneering Best Buy Abandons ROWE; Catapults Workforce Back to Dark Ages

By on March 5, 2013 in Introvert vs Extrovert, Workplace Reform & Job Burnout

Once again I’m baffled by yet another Fortune 500 CEO’s decision to end their company’s workplace flexibility program. Last week I discussed the horrendous decision by Yahoo!’s Marissa Mayer, and this week it’s even worse: Best Buy, the original sponsor (I don’t want to give them credit for creating it… Cali Ressler and Jody Thompson […]

The Gemini in my Eye: My Mostly Not Crazy Split Personality

By on February 19, 2013 in Ruminations

I was born a Gemini. I find that detail very fitting, which in turn I find ironic, considering I don’t believe one ounce in the zodiac and the supposed personality traits associated with being born under a certain sign. I don’t even really know what the traits of a Gemini are, but what I do […]

Multiple Sclerosis Files: Rockstar Without Benefits

By on January 28, 2013 in Multiple Scelerosis

I’ve decided to further add to the ADD nature of this blog and post about yet another topic that’s near and dear to my heart — Multiple Sclerosis (MS). I mean, I’m not in love with the disease, or anything, but yeah… I have it. Most people who know me, know I have it, but […]

Creationism vs Racism: My Response to PZ Myers

By on January 22, 2013 in Atheism & Skepticism

It’s a rare day when I mostly agree with PZ Myers, but since his recent post about Ken Ham’s Creation Museum and some Creationist textbooks actually being used in Texaswas mostly spot on, I felt the need to celebrate by posting a response of my own. I recommend you check out his article first, as […]

Are Athletes Who Dope Dopes or Dope?

By on January 21, 2013 in Liberty & Freedom, Sports

Prologue:  Posting this today because I figure what better day than MLK Day and a President’s Inauguration Day to talk about personal freedom to  dope… or its just a coincidence.  You decide. Obviously, Lance Armstrong’s confession that he used performance enhancing drugs to win the Tour de France has been at the top of the public […]

The Hobbit in 3D HFR: My Review

By on January 16, 2013 in Entertainment & Pop Culture

  So, after the heaviness of my last couple of blog posts, I thought I’d revert back to a bit of frivolity just to prove how unfocused and random this site will be.  It’s not all godlessness and “give me liberty or death” stuff!  Last weekend, I finally got around to seeing The Hobbit.  It just had gotten […]

My Blasphemous Deconversion Statement

By on January 9, 2013 in Atheism & Skepticism

[The below statement was originally posted on my Facebook page today.  Its primary audience is anyone who knows me in “real life” but I wanted to share it with you as well]. I renounce Jesus Christ as my personal Lord and Savior, and I deny the Holy Spirit. There.  I said it.  It’s done.  Finished. Some may think this […]
