American Pro-Wrestling and Me
I used to blog quite a bit about the pro-wrestling scene. For over a year now, I’ve pretty much stopped watching all current pro-wrestling. The problem is that I simply dislike the products heavily and find nothing compelling anymore. I do have a few people that I like, but I simply do not want to…

The Future of Web Technologies
Recently, I’ve been posting to my company’s Yammer feed articles about platforms and software in relation to the web. There’s a lot of validation on what makes some of the top companies big players and I believe the key is in the idea of centering the business as a form of a platform. When you…

First Pass Glimpse At My Classes
As a hobby, I’ve been designing the basic rules for an RPG system that I’ve always wanted to build/play. Taking from all my favorite games, I’m trying to concoct a system that is very character focused with an emphasis on variety. I’ve played one game, Elder Scrolls 4, which provided an incredibly flexible system in…

Seriously Considering Quitting the Gym
My whole purpose on joining the gym was to lose weight. However, I’ve slowly come to hate my gym because the people are pretty obnoxious, it’s too crowded, stinky and the equipment sucks. The other thing is that I’ve slowly lost my motivation to go anymore. I feel that going to the gym is futile…

My Requests If I Die
I do not like thinking this way, but I don’t have any official type of will. So I decided to post something here to make it official in case something ever happens to me. My main request is that if something were to happen to me that I would like to buried with my stuffed…

Finished Thor and Iron Man 2; Awaiting the Avengers
Having been recommended Iron Man 2 and being somewhat bored lately, I decided to check Iron Man 2 and Thor out tonight. Iron Man 2 alluded to Thor as being in the next chain of events in this Marvel series, piquing my curiosity at the end of the credits. I have to say both movies…
