Musings, reflections and self-arrogance from the now-former editor of a small weekly newspaper, And, occasionally, even something interesting!

Fourteen years in the journalism biz, but don't let that stereotype about commie pinko bleeding heart liberal journalists fool you - I manage to disappoint conservatives and liberals alike. Whatever happened to common sense and rational thought? At least I'm not a neo-fascist, neo-Nazi or other political extremist. In fact, just about my entire political, social and metaphysical outlook can be explained in the movie "Blazing Saddles." My journalistic idols? Carl Kolchak (thus the profile pic) and Irwin M. Fletcher. As for my professional choice, it beats retail, restaurant management and scrambling around to fund graduate school. I'm also pretty smug after 30 years - I knew back in 1976 that everyone else would come around and agree with me that the Electric Light Orchestra was cool. Just listen to those Monster.com, Volkswagen and J.C. Penneys commercials.

I thought that Vicus was terrific in that video...he was quite dapper back in the day.
How on Earth are you going to be able relate to humans after all of this fancy schmancy programming knowledge gets uploaded....
the red pill or the blue pill?
Very easy - I'm already an inhuman SOB from my prior life as a journalist.
And, as a journalist, you know that the answer to that question is "whichever pill is free."
These days, actually, whichever one has the lower co-pay
