Anger is like poop; you hold it in for a time until you’re ready to burst, then you let it out for relief. I wonder how our friend, Dan Tobin, is doing.

Mr. Bean
I just received some coffee from India (southern India) from a friend, Shan N. It’s certainly bold! They’re apparently big into chicory over there. I’m enjoying the coffee, but it’s a bit much for my several-mugs-a-day habit.
Gingerbread Gangsta’s
On Christmas Adam, my mom made gingerbread men cookies for our combined families to enjoy. She didn’t realize immediately, but a sudden recognition came to her. She had made gansta’ gingerbread men.
2005 and All’s Well
In spite of the latest horrid events and natural disasters, the new year is here and appears to be sticking around for the moment. The sky over my head is blue and mostly cloudless; certainly a sign of serenity here. We celebrated with Gainesville’s First Night event on the downtown square.

I’m not sure when in history we collectively decided to end our recognition of the first homo sapiens, but the choice to embrace this *truth and honor it for a day can be made. Since I’ve… Continue reading Adam & Eve
Winter is Here!
Not that it had gone unnoticed by anyone, but today is officially Winter. It has been very cold for the last week or so. Yesterday the weather decided to ring Fall and ask for cover while it went for a smoke break. This week, looks like Fall will be standing in for Winter during the… Continue reading Winter is Here!
Tea Bag Phenomenom
Since Halo 2’s substantial release into the wild, new phrases have entered the every-day. Among them is “tea-bagging.” Not something I’d recommend using in mixed company, but I’m guessing it’ll be on the sitcom’s soon. Wikipedia says: The term tea bag is also slang for a homosexual sex act that involves the scrotum (the tea… Continue reading Tea Bag Phenomenom
