Back in the early to mid 90’s, my best friend and I would stay up all night trying to come up with new and creative ways to write our own computer software and games. I was the creative one, who came up with all the ideas, and my best friend at the time was the technical one that excelled at writing computer code. Read the rest of this entry »

Who would have guessed that it would take 4 days just to spring my dad from the hospital in Florida and bring him back to New York? I never expected to be stuck in such a dilemma and my mom really owes me big time for this one! But hey, what do I care? Everything worked out just fine.

What started out as a simple 2-night trip to Florida from New York has ended up becoming an epic adventure. Stay tuned for up to the moment details on this new adventure of sorts.
Posted under WritingLast night I built a camp fire out of old papers and junk mail that accumulated over the past month. Figuring that I had a sizable fire going (it got bigger with the addition of a little gasoline and fryer oil), I figured that I no longer needed the use of my flashlight.
The trouble with building a campfire or doing any activity in the winter is that a thick blanket of snow will hide things such as holes or trip hazards. Last night I fell victim to one such trip hazard. A stick which I did not see tripped me as I walked to a safe viewing distance of my fire. Unfortunately behind my house is a steep embankment of which I was immediately given an impromptu head-over-heels tour of. Read the rest of this entry »
