There is something that happens when you round a big bend to go towards the Lincoln tunnel and see this skyline that you have seen in films. This iconic tableau laid out in front of you seems so much more frightening in a way. It's kind of looking at you saying, "Do you dare come here?'
HOLY SHIT!
These past nearly FIVE YEARS have been a learning experience for sure. In the end, I found IDQT calling me back. It said, "You have more bullshit to talk about and ramble on for paragraphs for. Come back!" (this is all said with kind of Chris Hemsworth tone but a little more ethereal. Think Galadriel meets Thor.)
Momento Animalis
Hey Gang! I recently came across the Non-Human Rights Project (NhRP). Essentially they are proposing we treat animals such as elephants, wales, dolphins and, most notably, chimpanzees as “persons”. Steve Wise, founder of NhRP, made it his mission to treat them as civil cases much like the women’s rights, civil rights, and gay marriage movements.... Continue Reading →
30 Signs You May Be In Your 30s
Hey Gang! My least favorite addiction happens to be the clickbait lists found scattered across the Internet (I’m looking at you Buzzfeed…). I can’t help but read them. “Article”: 15 things that only humans know. Me: Hmm, I’m human. I bet I can relate to these! That’s really what it is all about. They... Continue Reading →
The RV Stalks At Noon
Hey Gang! I admit that I have an overactive imagination. I can’t help it. I have been creating these overt, elaborate plots of nothingness for no reason.

Campfire Tales Part 1: Chris, Ben and the Infinite Boredom
“What if this is how we die?” I remember joking but not.
The Ass In The Field
Hey Gang! I was driving home and listening to music at an unreasonably high volume this weekend. I saw multiple things around me that caught my attention: I saw a woman picking her nose, a flock of geese narrowly miss a semi, and the poor mangled body of an old deer. I saw these things...

The Modern Ape
Hey Gang!There are three things that one must accept in this world. 1. Sharks are the perfect predators, swim accordingly; 2. Dolphins are able to notice their own reflections, one of two which includes humans.; 3. We are, be you creationist or evolutionist or evolution-creationists, all just animals. We are beautiful, flawed creatures that are... Continue Reading →
Beautifully Insane
Hey Gang! Is it me or did it get a little dark in this blog for a while? It has been a bit of a wild ride this past year but I must admit that there is a change in the wind. A change that I hope is for the better.Well, it is 2014 and I... Continue Reading →
