Over the holidays I spent possible an unreasonable amount of time reading something in the internet. Okay, many things. The internet is fun to play with when you can’t sleep and you can’t go for a run. But one thing in particular. A story that someone wrote last year, posting chapter by chapter as she […]

So I’m planning a heist. Or at least, I think I am. And no, this isn’t a confession regarding my criminal tendencies. This is just… I think Wizards has a heist in it. So heist. Which means heist research. Which means — okay, lots of reading stuff (and wishing woefully that there was a straightforward […]

I spent yesterday rebuilding my laptop again. Which somehow means that I’m going to be working this weekend so that I’m ready to go back to work on Monday.

I don’t know about you, but sometimes when I hear people planning for the inevitable zombie apocalypse I start to wonder if they’re looking forward to it.

First official trailer for The Cabin in the Woods a.k.a. that horror thing written by Joss Whedon and Drew Goddard that they’ve been failing to release for years now. YEARS, people. Watch and… well, maybe not LOL cause… well, it’s a horror movie. But… you know… interesting.

There’s a school of thought that suggests that the reason creative types are so known for being mad, drunk or junkies is because in some metaphysical way the crazy, the alcohol and the drugs are being translated into brilliance.
