Lets give this another tryI keep finding it hard to believe just how much time passes between my entries. It’s been a month… A MONTH since I last posted anything here! I’m not sure where the time goes.
From March until the first week of November, I’d been swept up in the frenzy known as campaigning. When you join a campaign read more.. Black & White: Part II happen to work for a candidate who is an absolute man of integrity. For the last twenty years he has been a fair and objective journalist who has told both (or more) sides of an issue in order to present an honest story. He is now attempting to become Oregon’s next Secretary of State, read more.. Hey Sanka, you dead?From the movie Cool Runnings, there’s a line that’s stuck out to me above all the rest, “Hey Sanka, you dead?”
The question was asked of one character to Sanka every time the Jamaican bobsled team the movie portrayed crashed. All but one time Sanka replied, “no mon.” But, once, there was a long hesitation.
Many times, read more.. Playlist: Summer 2008
I used to be THE master of playlists. The last couple years of high school and first couple of college, I could pump out a killer mix in a matter of minutes. Somewhere along the road, I just stopped making them. I guess I figured the shuffle feature in iTunes or on my iPod was good enough.
However, read more.. Breaking News
I really shouldn’t be surprised. It’s not like we didn’t know cable-news was all about infotainment… but today, I think CNN and all other television news outlets hit a brand new low for me.
On the day that arguably the most controversial Olympic Games with more story lines then one could imagine opened and a day in which Russia read more.. On life support
I love writing, I always have. It’s one of those “labors of love” that hardly seems like labor at all. I’ve journaled and then blogged for as long as I can remember. My online writing presence has existed for over ten years now.
My online writing has been in constant evolution. It began with a passion for college sports, shifted to the uber-personal journal read more.. Rise up. It’s time to become a man
One morning several weeks ago I woke up.
This isn’t astounding or anything since I’ve woken up every morning for 8,786 consecutive days now. However, something life changing happened. It wasn’t a revelation, or an ah-ha moment. I can’t point to the exact second it occurred, but I woke up that morning and I knew something: read more.. The life of a campaign staffer
This is likely the third or fourth post in recent months I’ve begun with the words “It’s been awhile since my last post.” I’m now roughly producing just one post a month, likely an all-time low since I started writing on the web eight (or so) years ago. I’ve always had a good excuse for read more.. Why I won’t vote in a McCain/Clinton election
I’m a romantic when it comes to democracy. Early on in college I immersed myself in greek literature and philosophy, and I’ve studied early American history. To say the least, I know my civics.
I’ve often felt that it’s not only a right of every American, but an obligation to vote — and not just vote, read more.. Viva Las Vegas?
I’ve really fallen off the horse as far as this blogging thing lately, huh? Well, sometimes the words just don’t flow naturally, and as I’ve said before; I’d rather write nothing then force crap. Anyway, in fear of sounding like a persona, I know that a lot of you out there keep tabs on me read more..
