Fat Mogul vs. Salesmanship

Yet another day of having a plate too full, so I’ve decided to take this moment to up my shillmanship experience points and remind all of you that I have things for sale.  Well, one thing, really, but you can get it in different colors.  And by different colors, I …

Book Review: Fusion (short story collection)

It’s been a while since I’ve posted any of my book reviews out here on the blog.  Probably because, thanks to how every social media website is connected to each other, every single site that I’m connected to already told you about my feelings toward whatever book I’ve read recently. …

One Mystery Solved!

A couple weeks back I posted the picture to the right here and waxed on (for what must’ve felt like forever) about how sometimes there’s just things that I can’t seem to find an answer on, and it makes me somewhat sad…or something like that.  Honestly, I just didn’t feel …

Fat Mogul vs. The End of Outdoor Weather

If you follow me on Twitter, you would have seen that I posted a bunch of pictures to Facebook this weekend (stupid auto-connect dealie between facebook and twitter is stupid), one of which is to the right here.  As is usual on our weekends together, our family got out into …

Fat Mogul vs. Predators

I’ve been looking for a new job for quite some time now.  Not because I need a new job, well, not exactly, just because my current job offers very little in the way of fulfillment.  So, yeah, I’ve been pretty picky in the places I’ve chosen to send my resume, both due …

Happy Birthday ECCT!

This weekend found me taking a trip down memory lane, a trip that until it occurred, I wasn’t even sure I had wanted The location that allowed for the situation that lead to me meeting my wife is celebrating it’s 25th anniversary this year, and this weekend was the one …

Fat Mogul vs. Positivity

I know I’ve mentioned on here several times about how I’ve long battled with depression.  That crippling feeling that the world is ready to cave in on you with all the woes imaginable (when, in fact, you’re really just spiraling because your brain won’t let go of some simple item …
