Random thoughts and confusion
My home PC died. I could fix it but just don’t care enough. I’m posting from my phone now. I’m addicted to the computer anyway. Maybe a few weeks off will help. Maybe I’ll just be addicted to my phone instead. When I think of girls that catch my interest I think of Say Anything…

A Midsummer Night’s Blog Post
I’ve been ridiculously busy since my last blog post. I’m starting to keep track of things by having my picture folders include the full date in the folder name. Otherwise I’d have no way to remember what order things came in. In chronological, photographical order here is what I’ve been up to: Marcy came down…

CCIE renewed + Beach
I passed my CCIE Voice recertification. It wasn’t as bad as I expected it to be. I did pretty well and spent more time stressing about it that I should have. It’ll be nice to get the recert money. Brendan invited me down to the beach. I have pictures here: Now back to work after…

Busy lately – Camping, Jeeping, Motorcycling, Partying
I haven’t posted in quite a while. That time has been filled with all sorts stuff. I’ve been riding my motorcycle around, going camping and Jeeping, Ward’s wedding, more motorcycling, and just hanging out with people around Raleigh and Chapel Hill. I guess I’ll start with links to albums in chronological order, just to document…

2010 Kawasaki Concours 14
I went down to Team Powersports in Smithfield on Saturday morning. Justin let me test ride the 09 demo model they had there. First, everyone in the shop seemed very cool. Second, this bike is big and heavy, but once you get on it that all disappears. It handled like a featherweight at slow city…

Voracious Reading
I’ve been destroying books lately. They are great for plane rides, and great for taking your mind off of things. However, I always find myself more depressed than when I started. Something about holing yourself up for days at a time in a fantasy land that isn’t particularly helpful. I need to remember to throw…

Shooter’s Log – Day 4
A while back Shapess and I trekked down to PDHSC again. I fired 100 rounds of Federal 9MM through the P07. I also fired one magazine of 15 hollow points. My accuracy was pretty great the first 50 rounds. The second set definitely suffered. I was stuffing an almost full 15 rounds per magazine when…

Thomas Paine
I have resolved to take a US History class and become the foremost expert on Thomas Paine. I will write many books and essays. I will refer to him as T. Paine in all literary works. I will laugh hysterically. That is all.

Strange Musical Coincidence
Lately I’ve had a stunning series of strange musical coincidences. I’ll be singing a song in the shower, and then again while I’m making my lunch for the day. Then I’ll walk into the car and fire up the CD player or the satellite radio, and BAM the song bursts into the same verse I’m…

Summer Motorcycle / Concert Tour
I just had an amazing Idea. I like Music. I like Motorcycles. Bands go on tour during the summer months. Motorcycles are awesome to ride in the summer months. Action Plan: Take time off during the summer months and plot a course across the country that involves stops in different cities where bands are playing.…
