OK...now for something REALLY interesting...I've been listening to this Podcast, Adventures in Sci-fi Publishing...It's really good, with tons of interviews with Sci-fi and fantasy authors and other people. Now, I was afraid there would be no more episodes, but IT'S BACK! and they have a new episode up with Greg Van Eekhout, author of Norse Code. Check it out here! If you are into writing, or even just reading, this is a must-have podcast!

Week In Review

Hey everybody!!! I am now going to review the "happenings" over the last week. (in reverse order)

Friday - Found out I am extended for work a few more months. Yay! Boo! Yay! Boo! Some say Yay, some say Boo!

Wednesday - Went to A Camp concert in Chicago. Great show, got to meet the band afterwards, but a long trip up and back, especially on a work night.

Sunday - Saw Drag Me To Hell. I really liked it. Sam Raimi has a specific style and it was fun, and not too scary/gory.

Saturday - Saw Up. It was great. Pixar just hits it outta the park every time!

OH MY GOSH THIS IS THE MOST BORING BLOG EVER!!!!!!

Listen, I just have all these ideas in my head, and not enough time to get them out! If you like posts like this one, follow me on twitter!!! I NEVER post anything interesting or funny there!

Problem solved.

Hello! How nice to see you again. Today, my thoughts on our current economic situation. Upon reading over 3,200 pieces of text, be it book, letter, memo, poem, novella, historical fiction novel, or scrap of paper, I have come to the conclusion that the fault of this situation lies in the terrible financial dealings with the dark God of blergs, Heeblen. Through his evil vessel, the simple-minded yet strong satyr, Jerglyn, he robbed the vaults of every bank in this country, soon setting himself up as the primo, numbero uno Robber Baron in the land. After much destruction was wrought upon the kingdom, he left and was never heard from again. 600 years later, we are where we are.

Now, after that, we need to discuss how to fix the problem. Well, it's simple. Invent a time machine, go back 600 years and kill Jerglyn before he is mind-melded by the evil Heeblen. (not a Vulcan) Then, come back here, let the current President, who might be a different person based on the space-time continuum or whatever, know that Jerglyn was killed, and then he will be authorized to send $798 heebrings to each citizen, who of course now all have hooves for feet. Darn the space-time continuum!

Your pal,

Jeremy
