I dream pretty regularly. Well, I mean, technically everyone dreams every night, but what I mean to say is that I remember my dreams (or at least the last dream of the night) with pretty regular frequency. And they are sometimes strange. Like last night, I dreamt that I was at Six Flags, on a [...]

Abstract: You're not always right. People are killing themselves, so stop being so freaking stubborn about whatever it is you're so sure of and stop being an elitist prick. Yes, you. 1 in 119 deaths is a suicide. That means that of the 6½-billion people in the world, 55-million would rather die and forfeit the [...]

So I'm pretty much an old man now, and I've been thinking lately about what this means. Legally I've been considered an adult for over five years now. I'm allowed to indulge in the cancer sticks and the giggle juice at any point without reprimand, although as most of you know, I don't and won't [...]

Okay, this is urgent enough to me to warrant another quick blog post. A little while ago, I saw a short YouTube video about John McCain, highlighting several repeated instances where he would firmly make one stance, and then later firmly make the opposing stance, and keep flip flopping back and forth. Exhibit A: showYouTubeVideo('johnmcbush','GEtZlR3zp4c'); [...]

In my graduate-level religious studies course last semester, one theme we observed was that the early Christians who were [...]

I've been home to Sheboygan on a few recent weekends, and after digging through my closet a bit I came across a lot of old memories. I'm not really sure why, but I decided I'd put them here. They're very good memories that make me happy, but at the same time it's bittersweet, because they [...]

Woke up this morning and quickly realized that for some strange reason, my house does not have hot water at the moment. Cold shower was cooooooooooold. I'm sure this will be resolved quickly, as issues like this typically are, but I would have much preferred the resolution to come sometime prior to me taking a [...]

I'm getting sick of coming across so many PHP sucks articles being parroted all over the internets, so I wanted to dispel some of the myths and rumors about it here. PHP does not suck. Not more or less than any other language, anyway. The most common argument for why PHP "sucks" is that it's [...]

I just got back from a two-day Seinfeld marathon at Keeshia's place, and the combination of having wanted to blog about something for awhile and just having an experience probably worth at least a blog post brings me here. I mean, the experience isn't all that fantasmical, but neither is my blog usually. So anyway... [...]
