He woke slowly, fully aware what day it was. Christmas Eve. He lay in his bed, eyes closed, and let the significance of the day play through his mind. He tried to remember Christmas Eve over the years. So many wonderful memories instantly surfaced: * Walking in snow, a light dusting, in Maryland. * Wrapping […]

the fog outside my window creates miniature halos around each streetlight – mocking me with their barometrically-induced divinity why the fuck can a streetlight find God when all I find is more reasons to dislike my fellow man? every day, all day, on every channel (CNN, MSNBC, FOX, ABC, NBC, CBS) I see hour after […]

A year and a half ago I made a list of what I wanted in a woman. What would Mrs. Ron 2.0 have that I wanted and deserved. I was thinking this weekend about re-writing the list, starting over, but when I read the original list I realized that there was nothing to change. So […]

So my company’s 8th birthday/aniversary party was this weekend. The company treated everyone to a show at Dixie Stampede. I can’t say I was impressed (Medevial Times is much better IMO) but there were a couple of highlights. This was the Holiday show at Dixie Stampede, so the whole theme was Santa Claus and the […]

A friend of mine recently blogged on solitude and being alone and I’ve been giving it some thought today as I work. I find that I often feel “detached” or slightly apart from the groups in which I participate and interact. Let’s face it, a good writer and bibliophile OBSERVES and doesn’t necessarily PARTICIPATE. I […]

Prohibiting smoking in public building has one major unintended effect. Every asshole who lights up stands right outside the office doors to get his or her nicotine fix. That means that those of us who don’t smoke have to either choose to remain indoors and thus miss all the beautiful sunshine that smokers get to […]

Big Bad John sent me an email this weekend asking if I wanted to go to Kennedy Space Center to watch the World Expo 2007 Airshow. Of course I agreed. I can think of nothng more nerdy and cool than combining high-tech aircraft with Space nerd stuff. So I managed to work a deal with […]
