Holy Shit, I Still Have a Website.

My lord, I’ve been spending too much time on Facebook.
I’ve neglected my role here, as RPN. My deepest apologies.
To catch you up to the story quickly (this would be Chapter 12 for those reading at home), our hero in the story has taken to walking the Earth in order to save it.
Which sounds all [...]

International and Interstellar, News Update

Here’s the “remainder” for the week.  Just a short blurb and be done with it.

No fence yet for W from Big D.
Former President George W. Bush is officially living in Dallas, as our own Lori Stahl reports.
But a security gate scheduled to be erected on Daria Drive near in Bush’s Preston Hollow home on cul-de-sac [...]

More Stuff I Won’t Get to Write About, at length (dang editing)

Computer power and intelligence. I actually did a video bit about this one the other night.  Hopefully I’ll get it edited soon.  Simple fact: We DO NOT WANT TO CREATE AN AI!   Really, it would not be a good thing.
What invasive species are trying to tell us.
Shaq isn’t human, he’s dancer. (Thanks, Case!)
Watching Republicans Grieve. [...]

You Know Who You Are

“More flavor than a bowl of fruit loops.”
UPDATE: More hits.

I’m so glad the U.S. never destroyed Canadia.

HOWTO: Become a Robot Pirate Ninja

[fyi: it's actually harder than that, and I wouldn't recommend it.  Ummm, like way harder.  Like 99 out of a 100 that try, die. It's that kind of hard.  And even if you make it, you have a 1 in a 1,000 chance of completing your mission.  Welcome to tilting at [...]

Let’s Start This Off With a Video…

…then I’ll tell you a story about my week.

It was the best of weeks, and it was the worst of weeks.
Sunday: My week started with the end of the football season, as noted here. That was a great game and a great night.  I met a friend during the game that [...]

Initial reactions to My First Book

So I’ve had enough people read some of my book to realize a couple things.
First, pretty much everyone who reads it says that I’m a quote “good writer.”  Thanks, everyone.  Really.  It’s hard to tell sometimes and get honest feedback.  I had ONE professor in college (a Vietnam vet who taught a class on media [...]

Y’all remember that time that i bartered the *idea* of my book for a great afternoon of beer and discussion? And a *really* shitty football game?
I remember it, like it was yesterday. All of it. Sometimes it just [...]

In Defense of Love, Part II (the Fusion bit, charging now…)

To catch up to this discussion quickly, one has to but read this post and the comments.
Then this post, and the comments.
And then this post, and the comments. If you do that, you should be all caught up.
In response to my previous post, “In Defense of Love”, I also received an email on the subject [...]

In Defense of Love

or as some people call it “Gay Marriage.”
Just a quick follow up to a conversation I’ve been having.  I don’t think this is going to make the first version of the book (although it might, because I like the phrasing). The setup is this post over here (yes, I’ve been engaging in various theological debates [...]

Oh, that was nice of you Joel

It had been a while since anyone has said “amen” to one of my pithy sermons.
I guess it’s time to reset the clock.
