I’ve been feeling a little stale lately when it comes to reading. I’ve bought several books, started them and then moved on without finishing em. This happens from time to time. With that in mind, I made a trip to ye olde book seller and picked up a few things to whet the literary appetite. I haven’t [...] Make me famous:
            If, like me, you’re an avid watcher of tv and movies, and a reader of books, you may have noticed a trend towards the disastrous future. Apocalypse is in and in big. I mean, it’s everywhere we look. I think it’s sort of a staple of the genre now. If you’re going to have a futuristic/scifi [...] Make me famous:
Star Trek: The Original Series. Probably one of the strongest influences on my life from a very young age was the original Star Trek. Rerun in syndication almost endlessly, the original Star Trek was huge in my life growing up. I knew the characters so well you’d think they were family. I could quote episodes like the [...] Make me famous:
I mentioned yesterday as part of this series of posts on ‘Influences’ that I’m doing this week, that a part of me felt like I was always treated like I was older than I actually was. This isn’t entirely a fiction of my brain, I think there’s some evidence to support this. The Youngest. Born in ‘72, [...] Make me famous:
(Edit: Mister Modesitt sent me an email asking that I clarify a couple things, which I am more than happy to do – as I said, I was relying on my own memory here. So I have gone through and -fixed- errors, using strikethrough in red so you can see where I messed up and [...] Make me famous:
Episode #5: All Things from My Brain In the fifth episode of the All Things From My Brain podcast, I talk about the Palm Pre losing it’s iTunes sync functionality, how India plans to issue biometric ID cards to its 1.2 BILLION citizens, how the Kindle and Amazon are once again in the news with BAD [...] Make me famous:
So. Guess what I did this weekend? I created a podcast!! I decided that I have a face fit for radio… Or Podcasting… Anyway, spent the weekend working on this – hoping that I’ve worked the kinks out and it’ll be much much easier to do these moving forward. We’ll have to see about that. There’s lot’s of ways to [...] Make me famous:
When I lived in Tennessee, used book stores were huge. I mean that in every possible sense of the word ‘huge’; they were hugely popular (could hardly find a parking spot), they were in these huge buildings (like warehouse stores), there were huge lines at the checkout and the shelves were huge and stocked with [...] Make me famous:
I remember when Star Trek: Enterprise was cancelled – in fact, I blogged about it on the old site which no longer exists or else I’d give you a link. Forgive me, I’m trying to remember the particulars here – a rather famous author (who’s name escapes me – was it Ellison?) wrote a ‘hallelujiah!’ [...] Make me famous:
So, I admit, I’m a little behind on this one. Taliesin, by Stephen R. Lawhead, was released in 1990, but I only recently picked it up on a visit to Barnes & Noble when I was looking for something to take with me on my trip to California. I wanted something different to read on the [...] Make me famous:
