UFC on FOX 2 in the Windy City Blew
Okay, let me be clear about which part of the night I feel failed to meet expectations. It was the most important segment of the event, the three final fights, which aired on FOX as the “tripleheader”. Fortunately, the seven odd preliminary bouts on Fuel TV delivered for the most part, saving the entire night from mediocrity.
In an effort to put my criticism into perspective, last...

SLATE
He makes my salary in roughly 12 hours. It would take me 724 YEARS to make what he did in 2010. I’m not saying he doesn’t “deserve” his wealth, but let’s not pretend he has the interest of the 99% within his agenda either. Hypothetically, he would be a President working with a Congress that already gives all their favoritism to the 1%. Say what you will about...

In Flight, Out of Sight
My naive flower, beware of those so willing to feed. Your beauty intrigues and excites The Samaritan and entrepreneur, both willing to lead Unspoiled hearts to artificial lights.
Think of me as one who appreciates and protects Your innocent wool in a pool of shears From gold-toothed priests and social rejects. I’m your sanctuary from outwardly fears.
Follow my footprints to the...

Stop SOPA and PIPA: Time to Save the Internet...
Here we go again. Time to rally up some gusto in order to protect society from those who were elected to work for the general good of the ones living in it.
We the public have been the butt end of too many jokes. Granted, we are our own worst enemy when it comes to voting. It seems the only people who bombard the polling places are the ones who know very little about how the system really...

Memory is a Blessing and a Curse
My sweet nurse, my blood explodes like Buckingham fountain.
Allow this moment to stain your clothes and heart
At this interjection, not even death can lead us apart.
Before you knew what you knew as a child, I was there
I was the frightened lover that would brush and pull your hair
How did we miss each other from the beginning?
I returned to you in my mind during the explosions
While Death...
Podcast and Blog: Getting My Shit in Order...Again
Once your life has been shoved head first into the continuous rigors of modern day indentured servitude (slavery if you despise your day job) and responsibility, success or even creative fulfillment on a personal level becomes increasingly difficult to initiate—almost impossible to maintain.
Between sleep and work throughout the week, all that is left to divide between all your ambitions...
