Plagiarize Much?


If what this article says it true, this Harvard chick is a real piece of crap and I hope Megan McCafferty sues her ass.

What Came First, The Bunny or the Egg?

I went the entire Easter "season" without consuming a single Cadbury Creme egg.

I keep my goals small and attainable.

I took a quiz on MSN. I guess I have a few years left in me!

Vegas or Bust

Cousin Julie and I will be setting out upon our four day adventure to the bright lights that they call Las Vegas.

This will be our second such outing and we’re both excited to be getting out of Hell-A for a few. Plus we’re both suckers for Vegas.

Julie’s a planner so she’s got every moment of our trip planned. We’ve even chosen hotels to maximize our time. But several things we MUST do while there:

  • The outlet mall in Primm.
  • Fried Oreos and Twinkies. SOOO Good!
  • Lunch at Quark’s Bar and Restaurant, outside the Star Trek Experience in the Hilton.

Notice how none of those things are related to gambling? Yeah, that’s how we roll!

I’m sure I’ll have much more to share upon our return.

It's Not a Strip Club!

Picture It

After 6 years I finally got professional head shots. What took so long you ask? Well...i'm cheap and lazy. A deadly combination.

And they turned out pretty well if I don't say so myself. I'm glad I got them done last week when my face was clear. This week I have the complexion of a 14 year-old boy (ifyouknowwhatImeanandIthinkyoudo.)

Thanks to
Henrietta for her help. She does great work at a reasonable price. I recommend her to all. And mention my name so maybe she'll hook me up the next time I get headshots..in another 6 years.
