One more chance for BioWare

OK, everyone knows now that Mass Effect 3′s ending (or lack thereof, really) let me down so badly that I actually cried. Yes, I shed real tears like a big baby. I couldn’t help it. Having devoted more than 400 hours of my life to this series of gamovies (game+movie, get it?) I was devastated [...]

Mustard…? Really? (a.k.a. “The Secret Life of an American Condiment”)

I suffer from chronic heartburn. Whether this is because of un-diagnosed acid reflux or some other reason, I don’t know. What I do know is that I can’t eat most of my favorite foods without a flare up that feels like trying to swallow a bubble of liquid hot magma. So, with the economy being [...]

December 27, 2011 Dear self, The holidays are a great example of the divine paradox. For some of us, it’s a time of joy, celebration, goodwill, brotherhood, and all that snappy jazz. For others, it’s a struggle to stay sane, happy, employed, married, healthy, etc. etc. Of course there are people who probably have a [...]

You Can Fly – Believe It

Someone once said that the secret to un-aided flight is to simply throw yourself at the ground, and miss. Sadly, the ground is so big and looms so large in our reality that the only way to miss it is to be so very distracted just at the moment before impact that you forget that [...]

November 24th 2011 Happy Turkey Day

I spent Turkey Day with my best friend at Her house and with Her family. They are generally pretty cool people. Being there is always calming to me, there’s an air of sincerity and genuine-ness to it that I haven’t encountered in many other places.
