Am I a big geek? I keep hearing promos for tonight’s episode of Smallville on the radio, and every time I have a little moment of squee. Also, between Lost, Smallville, West Wing, Jack & Bobby and Eliza Dushku’s appearance on That 70s Show, my VCR isn’t capable of handling everything I want to watch [...]

Moments of glee

Tuesday, February 15th, 2005

Work is done! My parents (finally) signed on the new house yesterday (we get the keys tomorrow)! The asshat at my old job in Vegas quit yesterday (but I’m not supposed to know that yet)! I’m off to the store to buy AtS:S5 and complete my Jossverse collection (from the original Buffy movie to Firefly)! [...]

Jordan’s Eagle Scout Award

Monday, February 14th, 2005

This was a proud weekend for my family. Jordan, my little brother with the disabilities, recieved his Eagle Scout Award. While the Boy Scouts of America offer a track for boys with disabilities, Jordan really didn’t take advantage of that except for the physical limitations of his body. Anyway, as an Eagle Scout myself, I [...]

“This is a sharp time, now, a precise time-we live no longer in the dusky afternoon when evil mixed itself with good and befuddled the world. Now, by God’s grace, the shining sun is up, and them that fear not light will surely praise it.” – Danforth to Francis Nurse, The Crucible I heard on [...]

Thanks for the advice

Thursday, February 10th, 2005

Thanks to everyone who offered such great advice about yesterday’s dilemma. I kinda took the chicken-shit approach and had a long talk with our mother. Since on one level, my issues are also about Mormon cultural values (i.e. moms stay home and care for the children while men are the breadwinners; have children young and [...]

My bro-in-law-to-be

Wednesday, February 9th, 2005

I know I’ve talked about my difficulties in dealing with my future brother-in-law over the last few months. Now that the wedding is like 5 weeks away, I’m really doing my best to be on good behavior. Only… Okay, I’ve been smiling and letting the subtle anti-gay crap pass for the last few weeks. He [...]

Save The United States! This video game is hilarious, funny and very educational. I just started playing, but I beat the first boss using Hulk Hogan and Howard Dean joined my team. Check it out.

Grumble grumble

Tuesday, February 8th, 2005

So we had another major setback in the Utah legislature today. The Senate committee has voted against the 9th annual Hate Crimes bill. Why? Anti-gay rhetoric, of course. over 60% of Utahns support a hate crime bill, law enforcement, even the Republican Attorney General and Governor support hate crime legislation. The committee which killed the [...]

Of warriors and winter

I finally saw Troy yesterday. I figured if everyone at my house was going to watch a bunch of guys work out testosterone issues through violence, I might as well choose an option that includes Brad Pitt’s ass. (Was Brad Pitt’s ass in the superbowl? Did I make the wrong choice?) Anyway, Eric Bana is [...]
