A Couple of Things Today

First is a site update. In my feeble attempt to get people to sign up I have created a forum. The forum has a place for general discussion along with a place to discuss tech things such as Windows problems. I have no real hope this will help attract users but at least I am trying. In order to post in the forums you must sign up for an account. Registration is free.

A Few Things

I have a few things to discuss today.

First, the Bears have benched Rex Grossman and put Brian Griese at the helm. Hopefully this proves to be a smart move. As I said previously, he can't do any worse.

Secondly, someone made a comment to my wife about some National Guardsmen they know. She said they didn't sign up to go to war. Oh really? Every person who enlists into the military has to take an Oath of Enlistment. Here is the version the National Guard uses:

Does it Really Matter?

I want to take a quick moment to apologize to any family members who may read this. This is a subject I wanted to cover strictly because it humors me. With that being said some links I provide may not be safe to view if you are at work or could cause you to be ridiculed if your friends have a tendency to look over your shoulder while you are on the web.

Da Bears, EEK!

I am a Chicago Bears fan. Have been since I was a little boy. I have stood by my team during the good and bad times. Last year was a really good time for Bears fans. They played kick ass defense and okay offense. They made it to the Super Bowl only to lose a game they shouldn't have lost. I credit the loss to Rex Grossman. This year the Bears are struggling and they shouldn't be. The defense is still pretty damn good but the offense once again is lacking. Again I credit this to Rex Grossman. For a first round draft pick he sure does suck.

How Bad is Chuck Norris

We all know that Chuck Norris is the epitome of bad assness but I stumbled across a video that proves just how bad he really is.

Talk like a Pirate Day

Today is talk like a Pirate day. So please have some fun and talk like a Pirate today.

You may have noticed all of my posts have been converted to pirate speak. It is a filter you can install on websites built by Drupal. Pretty cool huh?

Shorts

I am going to try and start writing more. It has been a while since I have done any major writing. I will add any new writing to this area as they are written. Please leave comments as I would love to hear what you have to say.

Short Stories

Love of Darkness

The gun lays on the nightstand on her side of the bed. He glances at it briefly. What is it doing there? He is alone tonight. It happens rarely and when it does it gets dark. The darkness is comforting. An old friend of sorts. Has it always been this way. Not exactly. He used to have a smile that was real. At one time there was substance to his gaze. Not now though. Darkness is here. It hugs him gently, calling him down into its void.

I Hate Discussing Celebrities

But I think this time I will. I also know I am a bit behind on this one but I watched a video yesterday that has prompted me to post this.

The Video Music Awards was on Sunday. I don't watch it because I could really care less and my music preference is not represented at the VMA's. For at least a week I kept seeing articles about Brittney Spears's comeback performance at the VMA. They hyped it up pretty big like people actually give a shit. I guess some do and I have a video to support that. Well, Brittney ended up sucking the big one. You can see that in the following video.

9/11

I'm sure there will be a million and one blogs about this date today. Unfortunately I will be one of them and for good reason. This day changed my life.
