The Return of the Comics League (Kind of)

People who know me know that I love talking comics. I’m one of those that feel super heroes are our modern day mythology and, man, do I enjoy that mythology. I enjoy it so much I even had a little podcast devoted to the talk of these Gods, Monsters and Heroes. It was a weekly… More The Return of the Comics League (Kind of)

Another day off

Still feeling the ick sickness. Better, but still kind of knocked out. Yesterday I was in amazement over the Mrs’ resistance, but she succumbed as well this morning. Hopefully I’ll have something interesting to say tomorrow. For now, I’m going to go read comics until I fall asleep.

My Lovely Plague Carrier

My boy is beautiful and bright eyed. He is happy and smiley. He also carries sickness.  And now I have the sickness. Which was kind of expected. As much as me and the little man have been playing it was inevitable. But what scares me is the Mrs is still healthy. She’s almost always healthy.… More My Lovely Plague Carrier

Grumpy Bird Reviews: Captain America Civil War

Generally speaking, Japan is a terrible place to live if you want to stay current with movies. For example, Deadpool still isn’t out here and will be released to theaters here at roughly the same time the US gets it on dvd. But sometimes Japan gets a slight advantage. Yeah, I got to watch Captain… More Grumpy Bird Reviews: Captain America Civil War

Grumpy Bird Reviews: Daredevil s02e10 The Man in the Box

Whenever I hear the phrase “Man in the Box” I always think of Alice in Chains. That doesn’t have anything to do with this review, but I’m going to be humming that song to myself for the rest of the night. The things I do for my art. If you can call this ridiculousness art.… More Grumpy Bird Reviews: Daredevil s02e10 The Man in the Box

It only takes one. (Aka Smoking is Bad)

Tonight was another ukulele night. It is the second time I’ve been able to play with this group. It is only about six players with a variety of skill levels (I’m close to the low end) and it is super fun.  There really is something about singing and playing with others. It’s uniting.  All we… More It only takes one. (Aka Smoking is Bad)

Using Facebook Ads

I’ve been thinking about what has and hasn’t worked for me when it comes to getting my name out there. Obviously I am not famous, yet, so things are still a work in progress. Maybe tomorrow will be the day I break through, but just in case it doesn’t I’m trying things that might help.… More Using Facebook Ads

Pizza, Beer and Nerdiness

After writing about blog followers and view counts yesterday, I thought I might as well get it all out of my system and write something about using Facebook today. Because I’ve tried a few different things, and maybe my experiences can prove useful. But the last several hours of today have been abut pizza, beer… More Pizza, Beer and Nerdiness

Thoughts on Writing Socially

This is going to be one of those posts where I wish I was in more of a writing community. I’m not. I mean, I have a few friends who are writers, but somehow that is different. But if I were a part of a writing community I would ask a few questions about growing… More Thoughts on Writing Socially
