A collection of all the nonsense I've posted to the internet over the past 24 years of my blog life

  • St Louis Demo posted - 1 comment

    I picked up the rental van Thursday, then Kevin and I drove down to Kansas City. Once we got there, we met Oliver, Chris, and their friend Kevin. They played a bad trick on us. Chris didn't show up for a while cause he had to take a crap or something, so Kevin said that he was Chris, even though he's a pale skinned red-head, and Chris is tan with longer, brown hair. That had me so confused for a while... read more

  • Bathroom Printers posted - 1 comment

    So, I just printed something out and when I went to get it, I walked straight to the bathroom. When I got there, I was like, "wait a minute, I don't have to go to the bathroom." So then I walked back to the admin center, got the document I printed, and wrote this article. read more

  • Cubed posted - 1 comment

    So Friday was pretty exciting. We got to move cubes at work. Now I have a much cooler one, and I'm near my buddies. It's going to be a lot of fun. I took a Panoramic shot of my new cube, Click Here to see it... read more

  • Breaking down on the interstate rules posted - 9 comments

    So I'm driving home from work all speed demon, road rage style and I'm in the fast lane of "Interstate 80" doing 85 or so. I come up on this semi doing about 65, with a motor home next to it doing about 70.... the far right lane was open, so I punched the gas to the floor to dart accross 3 lanes in between a motor home and the truck behind it... As soon as I hit the gas my car jumped once (cause the turbo kicked in hard)... and then it jumped right back down, vibrated, and just wanted to coast for the rest of the day... read more

  • Pool posted - 3 comments

    So I was playing pool tonight with this girl at a bar called "Drink." and the coolest thing that ever happened to me, happened. I was stripes, and I was shooting at my 13 ball. I had it all lined up perfectly at the left side pocket. I aimed, pulled back, shot, and POP... The 13 and the cue ball both jumped... read more

  • I want a redo posted - 1 comment

    Well, this site has had the same design since January 9, 2002, so I think it might be time to redo it again. I'll probably go darker and more simple. However, I'm also doing a site for some hip/hop groups in Des Moines, you might have read about them in an earlier article. The website is softfocusart.com. read more

  • Couch Pics posted - 19 comments

  • Talon to Eclipse body kit conversion. posted - 1 comment

    I get so many emails about this and I'm sick of rewriting it, so here is a small tutorial on how to convert your Eagle Talon to use Eclipse body kits. It's actually not too tough. Here's what you will need (parts): eclipse tail lights eclipse head lights eclipse reverse lights eclipse body kit (of course) 15 feet of 12 guage wire I think that's pretty much it, however you might have to pick up some bolts here and there. The front bumper cover is kinda tough because it requires the most customization (if you're keeping the actual bumper on, otherwise it's easy). I decided to keep my front bumper in case I get into a wreck... read more

  • Couch Wall posted - 2 comments

    My apartment is so close to being complete. The only thing I really need now is some kind of artwork to hang above my couch. The wall looks really bare. The couch is a greyish-green suede material, and my entertainment center and lamps are black. I've had a couple suggestions which were good, but I'm looking for more... read more

  • Girls are gross posted - 2 comments

    There are a few things I hate. And one of them is discussion about female hygene. Especially commercials on TV and emails like this: There is an ongoing problem of tampon applicators being flushed down the toilets. When you flush them, they end up in a pit where there are pumps to send the waste up to the main drain line. The applicator will get trapped in the pumps and damage them, unless I remove them, which is an unpleasant task and takes me away from my other duties, which costs the company money... read more

  • Being young and making cash rules posted - 6 comments

    The guy that led my orientation at work just asked my buddy and I, "How much more time do you guys have?" We were like, "Um, what?" He said, "this summer." So we got really confused. and then he's like, "When does school start back up?" "Ummm, we're full time, sir" read more

  • Why my job rules posted - 6 comments

    My boss just wheeled this giant box on wheels over to my cube. It was about waist high, 5 feet long and 3 feet wide with no top on it. Anyway, he told me to get in. I was like, "umm, you just want me to get in the box?" He's like, "yeah, it's ok, get in." So I got in, and he put this purple fuzzy pimp hat on me and pushed me all around the floor really fast. read more

  • Martial Arts: A good story posted - 7 comments

    A couple month's ago, my friends and I decided that it would be a good idea for Jordan to kick me in the stomach as hard as he could. It didn't seem like a bad idea because my stomach is so incredibly buff and Jordan was in martial arts which means he has good aim. So here's the video... it hurt, but everything went to plan. Anyway, my buddy, Zach was here last weekend and was wearing my tae kwon do uniform... read more

  • Kids' Camp Xtreme posted - 8 comments

    My aunt's church is having a camp called "kids' camp xtreme" and they asked me to make a video for them. They just wanted something short that they could play everyday to get the kids pumped up. They told me to just throw a bunch of "extreme stuff" together, which is exactly what I did. It's not awesome, but if you want to see it, click here. (2:07, wmv format) You'll see a few of my closest buddies and I goofin around, skating, soaping, etc... read more
