I explained in a previous post that I have been building a homemade arcade machine (properly referred to as a MAME cabinet), and have been documenting my progress here. Last time I went over briefly the process of sawing, drilling, and painting wood as to create the main control panel and affix all the buttons, [...]

I'm quite convinced that I have super powers. The one that I think I have is called empathic mimicry. If you watch Heroes on NBC as religiously as I do (pretty much the best show ever), you already know what I'm talking about. But for the uninitiated, empathic mimicry is the ability to copy the [...]

It's 3:30 in the morning, so I'm about to head off to bed, but I have just spontaneously decided that when I wake up tomorrow, I am going to drive about 400 miles to see someone I haven't seen in quite awhile. So this isn't much of a blog post, I know, but at the [...]

I remember some of the really early "movies" friends and I would make at some of my very young birthday parties, which eventually evolved into more professionally-styled short films after I took a film study class my junior year of high school. That year, class was [...]

In the past, I've identified as pro-choice. I've even written posts about being pro-choice. But I've been thinking about the topic of abortion quite a bit lately, and I've had a change of heart. I saw a friend, on Facebook, write a couple of notes explaining why she was pro-life. She also explained that she [...]

I have a couple life updates and apologies to mention, but I'm going to separate those into another post, probably to come later tonight. I want this post to stay focused on one topic and one topic only. I've actually mentioned my plans to do this somewhat off-handedly in a few previous posts here and [...]
