Dec.06.2011 Meaningful Matters I've been working on a project for my employer for the past two days. It's involved some scripting, creating nested do this, look for that, match that, and so.

Oct.29.2011 So Ya Wanna Read A Book That Ya Wanna Read "I have never been able to finish a novel by Kafka," said Martin Amis. "But then, neither could Kafka." Kafka at the Beach OK - I like this observation. I understand it fully - Kafka is not an easy read nor a particularly friendly writer. I doubt he would do well on a...

There is the house to clean, the pets to take care of, the laundry, shopping, bills, gardening, mowing, shoveling snow, making calls, paperwork, and more, much, much more.

May.28.2009 KARAOKE SINGING AND SONG PARODIES KARAOKE SINGING AND SONG PARODIES As John Cleese would say... "And now for something completely different" I am not sure if I have shared this with you before, but I really enjoy singing karaoke and even run a show of my own on a Saturday night.

Sep.07.2008 Why I enjoy writing / my process for writing I should be writing my blog story, but its too late to press play on the universal story teller living in the back of my head. (http://peacefulmeans.blogspot.com) The great thing about working on a new piece is the pure creative act. There is almost no mind involved. I witness the story in my head...	Jul.08.2008 Editing is getting fun? Hard to believe isn't it? I'm actually enjoying editing my books. Editing backwards is a really good way to force me to read the sentences and paragraphs independent from the story they tell.
