Personal Business is Important
I had a friend in high school who had a problem with my choice of music. My music choices were never "black enough" for him. He called me a traitor for attending a John Denver or Hall & Oates concert. So we reached a point where I just didn't tell him what I was doing. So I guess it was some time...

My new earbud headphones
For a while now I had been using a pair of Sony clip style headphones...the kind with the little colored face plates. Well interchangeable face plates are out of style these days. So I was in the headphone section and I saw these Panasonic RP-HV21Portable EarDrops Earbud Headphones (Black) and...

2008 Goals
I didn't do one of these last year. I had a lot of crap on my plate at that time...there were relationships I needed to free myself of and other things. I know I didn't like myself much towards the end of 2006. I felt trapped, imprisoned in something that wasn't what I thought it was going to be and...

An informal course of studies
I'm studying money. Most kids come out of high school ill-prepared for life and that includes me. We had a class called MoCE, Mathematics of Consumer Economics. I had an extra elective and I wanted to take that course. The counselor tried to get me to take something else. She said I was "too smart"...

20 hour shift
A nurse walks into a bank totally exhausted after a 20 hour shift. Preparing to write a check, she pulls a rectal thermometer out of her purse and tries to write with it. She looks at the flabbergasted teller and without missing a beat says, 'Well, that's great..........that's really great.............

Called Scrooge
Okay most people that know me know that I don't do much in the way of celebrating Christmas. We don't put up trees, sing carols, or get very caught up in the Christmas spirit. I don't go to the mall or the shopping centers during this time. Standing in line for over an hour to last-minute-purchase...

“Spirit” Encounter 9:25pm Tuesday 25 Dec. 2007
I was sorting ad printouts and the "presence" went by me to the left and rear of me. I still don't have any idea who or what this is. I know what the classic explanation would be in certain Christian circles. But before I write it off as a demon I am trying to figure out what exactly it is. I am not...
