  • Papal Conclave - You know, it's one of those phrases you've never heard before and then suddenly, you're bombarded with it 10 - 12 times a day!! I'll be SO glad when the barrage of the "Papal Conclave" mentions is over. Not since...

  • MS Walk - Not my idea of a fun weekend... I really don't like working Saturdays.. it makes the weekend seem SO short. Anyhow.. we're heading to the MS Walk here in about an hour or so. Should be a great time!! We've...

  • Weather Weirdness - OK, so I woke up this morning, January 13, stepped out on the back stoop to let Roodi out and it was 61 degrees. Yeah, 61 at 6AM in January. WEIRD!! Right now, 15 hours later or so, there's about...

  • Relief - I'm getting a little ticked at people (other countries and the UN) turning the tsunami relief effort into a political thing. WHO CARES WHERE THE MONEY COMES FROM?!?! Get the money and aid to these people who despeately need it...

  • All I will say on here regarding the presidential race - I'm not really that political...at least not on a national scale. I think you can affect more change by being active and supporting the causes you believe in on a local level than you can by voting for one presidential...

  • Leading Economic Indicators... - Alright, most of you know I'm pretty conservative on most issues. Economics is one that I'm a firm believer in conservativism and the Republican beliefs. Gun control, abortion, and several others, I lean more towards the left....but this is about...

  • Auuuuuuuuuuuuugh - ay-ziggy-zoomba.com is STILL down!! This SUCKS. I need to find ANOTHER hosting company again...maybe I'm just jinxed. This is really pissing me off. They can't even tell me what's wrong with the server itself. If they can't recover my data,...

  • Migrane... - I woke up at 1:17 this morning with a migrane. Unfortunately, since I haven't been at my job for a year yet, I don't have any sick time to take. Normally I wouldn't care and would just take the day...

  • One more reason to hate most people... - From WTOL TV: Two deer that were trapped on ice on the Maumee River have been shot dead by a hunter. The deer were in a stretch of the river by Texas, Ohio, south and west of Toledo. The two...

  • The Friday after Thanksgiving - Man it sucks having to work today...especially since it's Maryellen's birthday. I really don't know why we're here today. I was kind of busy this AM, but since noon, it's been a struggle to keep my eyelids open. One great...

  • Forever... - Man, some days just take FOREVER. Probably because it's the last day before Thanksgiving, but I don't know how many times I've looked at the clock and have been expecting one time, only to find that it's still an hour...

Thursday 21 November 2002

  • I'm done being an optimist - I'm getting really SICK of getting my hopes up for something...and then having them crash down around me. It's not good for my mental state and it's just general bullshit. I'm beginning to see that pretty much the world sucks...

  • Death becomes her. - It fascinates me how dead people can continue to enjoy fame and fortune. I'm thinking of the recent deaths of people like Kurt Kobain, Tupac, Aaliah, etc... Nirvana just released a "new" album with Kobain singing....Tupac has had numerous CD's...

  • Didn't know the axe could fall that far... - Found out last night that April and Wyatt got their pink slips from CISP yesterday. Good to see loyalty still means something in today's business world. Hope they both land on their feet. I'm sure they will. On a happier...

Friday 8 November 2002

  • My email is down... - I hate it when my email is down...it makes me feel so cut off from the world. It's amazing how it's become my primary means of communication. I'd usually much rather email than call someone. Weird... You ever just wake...

  • Halloween in Elmore. - I have never seen a town, no matter the size, get more into Halloween than little old Elmore, Ohio. I'm serious. It started last night with the Halloween parade, yes...that's right...a parade through town a few nights BEFORE Halloween. There...

  • Longest Week EVER - My GOD this week seemed to take forever!! It's Friday 4:30...feels like it should be next Wednesday at 2:15 AM, or maybe two weeks from yesterday in the late morning, or perhaps it feels like early summer 2004...whatever the case,...

Friday 20 September 2002

  • What a week!! - Well, the addition of a second dog to our family has been much more stressful than we had ever imagined. It's not the new dog causing the stress either, it's Roodi! He must feel threatened or something. He's completely regressed...

  • YAWN....... - Man oh man...it's Wednesday. Thank GOD. The first 2 days of this week went really fast and pretty well, today, however, has been like getting my blood sucked out by leeches...slowly losing feeling in my extremeties. Anyway...I'm anxious to hear...

  • An old G-Rant - Back when I worked for CISP, I would occasionally write a column called G-Rants for our company newsletter. Here's one of them with more to come: I'm afraid I may sound like that Andy Rooney guy on 60 Minutes, but...

Thursday 15 August 2002

  • It's too early - I was up and ready for work before I normally would get out of bed today. I did sleep better and more though. For some reason I sleep much better when Maryellen is home. Probably subconscious worry when she's not...
