Macbeth Act 1, scene 5, 15–18 To Lady Macbeth, the “milk of human kindness” is distasteful stuff—no self-respecting man has any use for it. Therefore, when we use the phrase to...

Grudges, boycotts and banishment
I think holding an unforgiving grudge it is a sign of a strong character. Which is why I want to talk about me right now, so shut up. I have three permanent, immutable grudges that I will carry with me to my grave. Some may say that holding a grudge is close-minded, ignorant and childish. Those people are stupid dumb-dumbs. Grudge #1 Papa John’s pizza My oldest grudge I am going to now...

Started with being snowed in up North, having to navigate icy roads while all the time wishing my truck had 4WD like my much manlier wife’s truck. (boy does that sentence read poorly; keeping it) Then I visited the doctor about a lingering pain, he then touched my balls one at a time and proceeded to tell me my urine sample had blood in it.

2012 goals completed already (and 2013)
Not sure why changing the fourth digit carries so much weight that even I feel an urge to spring-clean my brain. But here I am typing about it.

I really should …
Write about how an obscure song from an obscure artist influenced my decision to move from Central Illinois to Arizona. How my crazy friend from high school influenced me in that decision. How a roommate convinced me to join a band. How I then dated and lived with the lead singer of that band. How I broke it off and rode my bicycle from Phoenix to the Grand Canyon in July. How yet another roommate...
