I’ve been really trying to gear up to present a video blog…but now I’m having second thoughts. Sean Combs is someone who I thought understood how to cultivate an image.  He’s basically used a murder as a means to propel himself to wealth and notoriety and he’s a shameless self-promoter of the highest ilk.  He’s used the media as a springboard to success and promoted himself by spinning common events into media sensations. There have even been a few times where he’s done some good while he’s been promoting himself such as his “Vote or Die” campaign, which hopefully got …

I’m a bit frustrated with my financial situation.  I’ve got about 20k tied up in several investments and my broker basically isn’t listening to me and my desires for that money.  I think it’s time I fire him. Lesson for the day – If I’m paying you for your services it’s important you take my desires into account.  If I tell you to fucking sell Comcast then sell the fucking Comcast stock. NEXT! MiH

So I’m finally taking Enbrel. I was working from home yesterday and heard the doorbell ring around noon and knew that my medicine had been dropped off.  The package itself is huge because the medication needs to be refrigerated at all times…even during delivery.  After 10 minutes I finally figured out how to open the package and unpacked everything (thanks for the awesome coldpacks!). I was prepared for the auto-injectors…only to find pre-filled syringes!  Ouch! So I “manned up” and did it.  It wasn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be and so far I feel no …

I stopped working out when I was taking the Methotrexate simply because I didn’t have the energy.  It’s been weeks  since I’ve stopped taking Methotrexate so why have I not gotten back into working out?  It seems I’ve been possessed yet again and this time it’s my old, slovenly self.  No matter how hard I try I can’t commit to working out every day. It’s time for a recommitment to fitness. I’ve got to come up with a way to work my workout back into my schedule.  It sucks doing it after work because it takes time away from my …

I’m sitting here watching a usability session. It’s hard for me to believe that there are still people on this planet who fail to read or understand instructions.  We’re getting stymied before we can even begin because people don’t understand how to add or install an Active X plugin to IE.  It’s amazing to me that people just pass by all this stuff mindlessly and expect the internet to work for them. This may come across as snobbery and I apologize if that’s the case but you’re obviously who I’m talking about if you think I’m being elitist.  How can …

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4tcRlHY-3Q] Any minute now, my ship is coming in I’ll keep checking the horizon I’ll stand on the bow, feel the waves come crashing Come crashing down down down, on me And you say, be still my love Open up your heart Let the light shine in But don’t you understand I already have a plan I’m waiting for my real life to begin When I awoke today, suddenly nothing happened But in my dreams, I slew the dragon And down this beaten path, and up this cobbled lane I’m walking in my old footsteps, once again And you say, …

This is an actual event, it’s not CGI.  Sachiko Kodama is an artist and a student of physics that is able to coax some pretty impressive events out of this magnetic solution.  It’s looks like the creature from the Next Generation episode “The Skin of Evil.” You be the judge… [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=me5Zzm2TXh4] [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rIi-mMi0qiY]   MiH
