Day 3 - Wednesday - really wasn't much to talk about. I mainly did work around the house, cleaning and shit, watched "The Boogens" while folding laundry. Like I said, boring 747. I learned a valuable lesson thought: Never look a dead boogens in the face. Now, Day 4. Day 4 actually was sorta lame in its beginning. Simply put, I had to teach my first classes of the semester today. So, waking

8:30a – Fuck you Wells Fargo, and your takeover of Wachovia. I can see a call to corporate in the very near future; what I can’t see, however, is my fucking paycheck, that should have been cheerfully deposited in my account well before now. Fucking transition of funds. So glad to see that doing all that bullshit to “get ready for the move” (their words) from Wack-ovia to Wells Fucko so far in

8:20a – Got up after 7 tries and got the baby off to day care. Having the first gen2 SGM progeny is quite a bit of pride; when we play wrestle, she demands that I be “Ray Asterio” and she’ll be “Triple 8;” I presume it’s because she wants to make sure that I don’t rise too high on the card and threaten her status with the company. At home, with the entire house to myself, I take to the computer

Someone get the Franklin Mint on the case! The pieces would reflect the characters of the play. The king and queen are Lord and Lady Macbeth, obviously. The bishops would be the witches that prophesize Macbeth’s rise to power. The knight is a tricky choice; if you think in terms of major characters and main set pieces, then it would make sense to either put Banquo or the ghost of Banquo as

A little over two years ago, I did a writeup on something I found absolutely implausible: the idea that Jenny McCarthy had found a cure for autism.McCarthy did indeed cure her son's autism by changing his diet, giving him vitamins, and detoxifying the body of metals and I don't know what the other word she used was; it sounded like Candido. I can get behind detoxifying the Candido from your body

But sometimes a comment comes through that is completely and totally removed from reality

As interpreted by the Mad Scientific crew ...I heard that, before every spring season, the Knoxville Zoo hires rogue zoologists who kill the polar bears that they have on exhibit. When the following winter season begins, they just bring in more polar bears as replacements. The Knoxville Zoo, in an attempt to justify this slaughter of a species already precariously balanced on a dwindling

It happened last night. And it didn’t happen quite like you’d expect. Innocently enough, it started with a movie review.I love movies. Love ‘em, love ‘em, love ‘em. When I get on my feet again, my first project for me is to build a display for my movie collection (such that it is nowadays) that resembles a video rental place. A rickety shelf lined with movies, with a small bar-like counter

Mexican Wrestling on MTV2?MTV2's new attempt at ratings, Lucha Libre USA, debuts tonight. I know this only because an ad for it popped up on ye olde facebook. The cast list is here.Though not listed, La Parka is in some of the publicity photos elsewhere on that site. The only other one I have heard of is Lizmark Jr. They also have a Super Nova, but alas, it is not the bWo veteran.

If Jonathan Swift had written "A Modest Proposal" in this modern era, he would have had to include a "do not try this at home" style disclaimer. That would keep anyone arrested for cooking infants and toddlers for a fine dining experience from handily building a defense that implicated Swift, his agent, his publisher, et al. as just as guilty, because they suggested such.Sad part is, said

I have decided to retire from my coaching dynasty in NCAA Football 2011. I leave UCLA with 4 National Championships and a closet full of hardware. Most importantly though, I ran a clean program while I was at the helm. Now on to Red Dead Redemption.

Funny how I wouldn't have been able to witness this, if it weren't for my unemployment checks starting last week.Getting gas yesterday, I went in to the associated convenience store -- Indian owned -- and saw a Mexican guy arguing with the cashier (herself, Indian) over why they only have adult movies for "white" and "black" people ... in sections conveniently labelled, "Adult - White" and "Adult

Another big meeting tomorrow.The other day, I started to launch into a tirade on how life is unfair. I have discovered that I am in a profession that makes its hiring decisions based more on status and prestige and less on work ethic. A lot of hires are made on potential for future research....and they fall back on the idea that certain schools produce the best researchers. People who go to any

I can't imagine how this could get any worse.Bad news...nothing for me and my better half got bad news on her end tonight as well. Still might get her job, but it will be at least another month before the person who got the offer accepts or declines the offer.A combined 20 years of higher education and we might be on the rack. Not good times. Y'all pray for us and we'll pray for you.

It's time for some meetings!In with the immediate supervisor at 10. He is thinking that it will be about how to make me viable long-term and survive my pending unemployment. I plan to point out that the business can't function without someone in my position. I doubt it will go well...depends on how much I push it.Much more hopeful day today though.

There have been new postings in Milwaukee and another in Cincy, so I'll do those, but I'm not really getting my hopes up.Still nothing from the job in the Northeast either, though I'm pretty sure that ship

I've done a fair share of shaking the tree lately since losing my position in January, and it's been a fruitless endeavour.My unemployment, by the numbers:2 - Degrees I have, in psychology;4 - Jobs I claim on my resume, since 2000;5 - Staff I've supervised, in total;7 - Years (approximate) I spent at my

I would like to say that this is exhilarating, but it isn't. We are going right down to the wire in the Quest for Employment 2009-10.

The Founding Fathers were well-educated, forward thinking men who set upon the task of creating the framework for what they hoped would be a long-lasting government; a republic with representational democracy to and prove that man was fit to rule himself, freely and peacefully. Feeling that they themselves had a better understanding of the world around them - as a result of access to better

As I sit in my office at the end of hour 12...The unemployment bug is sneaking up on me too. Contract runs out June 30 and, while there is hope for renewal, it will take another serious amount of legwork and favor pulling. It will also take a miracle of epic proportions with the budget coming in from the state legislature. I do, however, have an interview in the Northeast scheduled for Monday.

Today, I was reminiscing on how the wrestling scene of the 2000s (2000-2009) mirrored the independent comics boom of the mid- to late-1990s, not so much in the realm of how speculation ruined comics for quite a while - leading to even the most mundane comic receiving the "holofoil-variant-signed-polybagged" treatment - but primarily how you had several companies spring up in an attempt to be the

Remember that episode of "South Park," where the kids are anxiously awaiting the commercial for the "Terrence & Phillip" film, and when the commercial airs (in all its minimalist, unspectacular glory) the kids are whooping it up and running around in circles saying, "omigod, omigod" and calling their friends to share notes?Um, yeah.
