It could have been a brilliant career

Packing my bags for a trip up to Portland with Canvas church, and I notice that most of my clothes are hand-me-downs. I have all these sweaters and long sleeved shirts that used to be Grant’s, and a dwindling collection of tee-shirts, mostly from my thrift-shop hopping days in college. My favorite one [...]

My life in the noble cause/my life in the war machine

I was going to write something personal and reflective in here tonight, but screw it — no one really needs to know anyway.

Magic Kingdom

Disneyland is a very strange place.
I think that I could write a book of social commentary all about Disneyland. Today, what stood out to me was how many of the rides (i.e. Pirates of the Caribbean, Pinnochio, The Haunted Mansion, the Tower of Terror, Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride, et al.)contain rather potent lessons of [...]

Anyway, a few weeks ago, Grunk and Keika and I [...]

And I don’t just say that because she’s my sister.

Happy 21st, Elizabeth!

Recommended video, and The Only Trick to Controlling Your Destiny

My cousin Summer recommended this video to me, and now I’m recommending it to you. It’s an actual “feature-length” movie, over an hour long, so don’t jump in if you’re, I don’t know, on a lunch break or something.
Kintaro Walks Japan
The film is a documentary about this guy who has graduated from college and [...]

if hate is the anti-love, is anti-hate the anti-anti-love?

Since I work at the school I graduated from, I’m there ALL THE TIME. I am, in fact, there right now, in the library. It’s actually kind of convinient, since Chapman U. not only has many buildings with walls and roofs to hang out in, it is also close to many of life’s [...]
