So, I’ve been doing a lot of thinking lately. This usually happens when I’m bored out of my mind at work. Then I hear that Lake Ontario’s name has been changed? Have you seen this? Have you heard about this? Apparently it’s the Lake of America now. For some reason,…

So lately, I’ve come to the realization that there are still parts of this world undiscovered by us mere mortals. I’ve always loved the idea of playing a game where you explore a forgotten world buried deep within the jungles of some faraway country. Now, I know people are going…

Well everyone, the time has come. I have my first ulcer, and let me tell you this: it is one of the worst things in the world to experience. Besides the strange tinges of pain every so often, the medicine I’m on makes me sleepy. So I’ve been resting on…

So lately I’ve been doing some thinking. You know the kind of thinking. The kind that just now realizes just how far away October is. It truly makes me wonder what I’ve done so far with the family this year. You never really realize just how fast time passes you…
