A time to write

Looks like it's that time again. I guess I picked the wrong day to stop blogging.

Here's the current jist:

My kids are amazing.

Relationships suck.

Being single sucks.

Craigslist is being ruined by spammers and scammers.

Facebook is a bizarre addiction and quasi substitute for actually reunions with old friends.

More to come.

Back from Macworld in San Francisco

I picked the wrong day to stop traveling.

I just got back from a very cold San Francisco to a very hot Los Angeles. I was all bundled up while making my way through the city of my birth and now I'm in shorts and a tee-shirt sweating as the sun beats down on my face.

I attended what feels like might have been the last Macworld Expo. My job sends me yearly to attend the conferences and classes as it is invaluable to my profession. While the classes and conferences are well targeted at the OS X platform I found a different experience on the actual Expo showroom floor. They should really call this iPod/iPhone Expo as 75 percent of the product showcased was just for that. I've never seen so many cases, skins, and speaker variations in one place in my life. There was some cool stuff, don't get me wrong, but really very little that wowed me. For the first time at Macworld I purchased nothing for myself.

While Macworld is always fun professionally for me it was really my reconnecting with San Francisco and my inner self that was the crux of the trip for me. I'm going to write about this later today. I think I've had some major revelations.

Guess who's back...

I picked the wrong day to stop California Prop. 215 Medical Marijuana...

I think this blog needs me. Time to dust off the 1's and 0's that make up the magical words I put on the screen.

While I flex my creative juices I'll distract you with a pic of me an hour into an open bar.

Catching up

I picked the wrong day to stop blogging...

OK I'm back at it again. Let's do a quick recap of the last couple of months.

I'm now single.
I'm now a single dad.
I moved into a new house.
One car was towed.
I ran out of my meds twice.
Child and Family Protective Services came into my life again.
I got involved with a restraining order.
I testified in court.
My oldest child got 3 F's his first report card in High School.
Same child cursed me out when his laptop was taken away because of the 3 F's.
Youngest child has been distrupting his kindergarten to the point where a conference was needed. (Kindergarten!)
My nomination for Father of the Year was withdrawn.

OK. I made that last one up.

I think I'm going to do a beat down on 2008 so Baby New Year can show up sooner. That old man has it coming.

Why comics will never be for kids again...

The artists and writers have a very particular sense of humor. This wasn't published though.








This is actually an homage to a previously edited cover of Spiderman.

Coolest in Show, Comicon 2008

The ORIGINAL Captain America. Look it up everyone.

Teacher Uses the N Word

I picked the wrong day to stop watching Birth of a Nation...

Say what you want but there's no way THIS guy's English class is ever boring.
