Dave’s Boo Boo

A video of me talking about breaking my hand.

My Health

During the extremely hot days that we were having I started drinking a lot of liquids. A LOT! Nothing could quench my thirst and nothing was cold enough for me. I was freezing tea or Gatorade to the point that it would become a Slushy, drink it, and it still wasn’t enough. I had assumed [...]

The Gays and My Opinions

I’ve been paying a bit more attention to the news with regard to gay-related topics lately. A few of the web sites which I follow could be considered fluff sites, filled with gossip and trivial matters but I pay more attention to the more interesting topics, such as the progress of LGBT rights and acceptance.
I’d [...]

AmazonFail

Okay, I’m a little late in posting about this but I was just reading something that was posted on LiveJournal’s metaquote community about Amazon.com inadvertently hiding all LGBT items in its catalog from general searches. The person being quoted had said, in essence, that everyone was having a knee-jerk reaction to the whole thing, calling [...]

Blog Errors and American Idol

I went to my personal blog, poised to start bitching about the regular antics of Ryan Seacrest and Simon Cowell, when I found that there were numerous MySQL errors within my blog’s rusty innards. The home page was fine and dandy but the admin area, where I go to write my entries, was filled with [...]

Big Whoop

Michael Phelps, winner of eight Olympic gold medals, has *gasp* smoked pot, the all-consuming gateway drug. *double-gasp* And we, the American people, who have nothing better to talk about than Jessica Simpson’s horrid weight gain of seven pounds, have decided that this topic needs to be obsessed over as well.
Apparently pictures of said bong [...]

Accepting Non-Acceptance

I just got done watching The Matthew Shepard Story which I had recorded on my TiVo. A few moments in the movie, which is about the fatal beating of a gay man in the town of Laramie, WY, in the late ’90s, reminded me of something which often comes to mind when gay people complain [...]

Laid Off

Ugh! I got a call yesterday, a little after 4 pm, from the guy that usually calls to give us our work schedule for the following day. Having only worked two and a half days since the end of November, when I saw his name on my caller ID I expected that he’d be calling [...]

Return to Work… Yeah, Right

Since returning to work on Friday the 19th I’ve worked a total of two and a half days. Luckily I kind of foresaw this and didn’t stop filing for unemployment. As long as I’m only working intermittently I can still file for unemployment, I just get less. It sure would be nice to go back [...]

Thoughts of Memories

I’m one of those people that thinks that people need to get over their old childhood horrors and move on. Even so, I still recall my awful experience during a period of my childhood commonly referred to as “School Age.” It was a miserable time for me. I’ve lately been adding (and been added by) [...]
