Just Can’t Keep My Hands Out of the Blog

Thursday, February 22nd, 2007

How about one more try for old times sake? If anyone is still looking for me, I’m not there anymore. Since my last post, I have left my old job and taken a new one, which has necessitated relocating my family and me. For now, that’s all I’ll say about the new job. As much [...]

Where I’ve Been …

Tuesday, August 29th, 2006

Well, I’ll bet you’re surprised to se ME here. It’s been a little while. Let me fill you in on what has happened in my absence. First of all, I finished my Master’s Degree. Yeah, I know. Viva me. But like many things in life, there is a somewhat unexpected change of plans in the [...]

A Friend, A Memory, and Great Art

Monday, May 1st, 2006

This morning I was delighted to find a message in the inbox from Aimee Stewart of Foxfires. Aimee is an amazingly expressive writer and a fantastic artist. I think a bit of background is appropriate at this point. Some time ago I spent a significant amount of time in Baghdad. It was my second trip [...]

One Billion Unique Hits!

Friday, February 10th, 2006

No, not ME. AJ He’s got a bet with his friends. If he can get one billion unique hits on his site, without spending tupence on advertising, he gets £1000, but most importantly, he makes the short list in the Geek Hall of Fame. So what are you still doing here? Go show some love!

Hi, Phil …

So, that brings the total of the number of people that can link me to my writing and know my face to 7. It’s an exclusive club. Should we keep it that way?

Hope, Iraq, and Switch Grass – The State of the Union

Thursday, February 2nd, 2006

I have been a bit tight-lipped as of late, mostly because the combination of Grad School and work is a pain in the neck (and other parts). But I have been called out, so to speak, by my gracious host. The Golden Boy is eager to hear what I have to say about the American [...]

Fear, By Request

Thursday, January 19th, 2006

Note: I actually wrote this on October 12, 2003, while in Iraq. I read it over, and it seemed so true, even today, that I could have written it three minutes ago, so I’m reprinting it here. By Request: – Write what disturbs you, what you fear, what you have not been willing to speak [...]

Flashbacks

Wednesday, January 18th, 2006

Some of you may remember that I did some writing prior to this blog opening. I lost a substantial amount of it when my other blog died, and it is with much thanks to Andres Perales that I have a new place to write. I have located some of my old writings, though. I will [...]

Too Funny For Words

Wednesday, January 18th, 2006

I don’t usually do this sort of thing, but I’m tied up with labors, education, and finishing an essay for you people on The War. So in the interim, there is this really hillarious Blonde Joke over at Dean’s World …

Introductions

Tuesday, October 11th, 2005

For those of you who are new to the concept of Mr. E., welcome aboard. This is an infrequent, rambling, irrational place for me to impose my opinions on the world at large. Let me tell you a few things about me. My name is not actually Mr. E. “Mr. E.” is a pen name. [...]
