Fiction v Reality

Yeah, I hope fiction wins. Reality is over rated (I’ve seen the video on youtube).
Here’s a link to a local blog “Evolution of the Me.” A great post. Something I can’t steal, but I can link to it.
And since I like to have visuals and it fits the topic:

Six degrees of Reno bacon

it’s pretty incestuous here… -Kyle Kozar
So yesterday I was chilling with the RBP drinkin’ PBR and chatting with Kyle, Noah, Mike, Reid, and the gang. The above quote came from me asking questions about how they came together, got hooked up with the people they’re hooked up with.

Hot dog, it’s a blog

A sold-out game

Read in the RGJ today about the two sites for a proposed Minor league ball park. One site is downtown and one is on the Grand Sierra Resort. First con listed in the sidebar for the downtown site is:
“A sold-out game will generate 1,000 vehicle trips downtown, assuming 4,000 take the bus, walk, taxi or [...]

Bloated Bovine

The boy moved like he had said something but I didn’t hear anything. The kid wore a straw cowboy hat with a wide brim, and a decorative strap around it. He had on jeans and a polyester shirt that fastened at the openings with mother-of-pearl snaps instead of buttons. He was only 16 years old, eighteen at the most. My Grandfather had had shirts like that; shirts that haven’t been made for decades, years at least I would think. Shirts that hadn’t been in style for even longer.

Once forgotten we are truly perfect

Sometimes, something comes along and it isn’t immediately clear if it is coming or going, positive or negative, like a titration with an ambiguous endpoint.

I call this one Boobies

So here’s the dillema: cable TV, $60/month (or some shit); Youtube, free. You make the call. For now, this is better than any recent sit-com I’ve seen, plus it only takes a minute or two to watch.

plus it has boobies.

Strange Maps

Found a cool blog. This is the best post I’ve read there. One of the things I loved about LOTR all the years was the maps. Even in the paperbacks without color. It’s amazing the amount of thought people are able to put into things!

Ronald McDonald’s Heart is Rotten

When I was a kid and had to spend time in the “Nursery” at the 1st Church Of Christ Scientists in Bakersfield, California we did whatever we could do to pass the time. there were various wholesome toys and books and games, most of which featured inspiring, insipid bible stories, or morally righteous, farm animals.

Surprisingly [...]

God is seven

I was in my army-man pj pants from target a few minutes ago when there was a knock at the door. It was two guys in suits, but it was the kind of burgundy accented three piece that’s never the police. Oddly enough I have had suited officers of the law knock on my door, [...]
