So far, nothing has been more impressive to me in the philosophical realm than Objectivism. I believe you will be hard-pressed to arrive at a more self-consistent, rigorous philosophy than this. After working my way through Objectivism: The Philosophy of Ayn Rand, and most of the way through The Voice of Reason, I feel certain [...]
Portage Campus
I’ve been working at Pfizer in Kalamazoo since March of 2003. It’s been a great place to work, and certainly the largest facility I’ve ever been employed at. The picture here is of the Portage Campus, which is 56 acres and includes an Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) plant to the left and a Drug [...]
A whole month went by without a post. I’ve got to admit that surprises me. I’ve been so busy it only seems like a couple of weeks. I’m alive, and things are going well. AudioMonk.com is still doing very well, and I’ve had to expand by bringing my brother and a mutual friend on board [...]
Long time, no blog.
Truth is, I just don’t have the time for it right now. AudioMonk.com just ‘re-launched’ with a new look, and I’ve been swamped in work up until today. I certainly can’t complain, but it has been more successful than I had thought possible. Maybe I’ll be giving up that pizza job [...]
I just sold my movie review of ‘300′ to Associated Content for actual money. I’ll provide a link once it shows up over there.
Update – Link added. Go say nice things about me. Bonus are accrued if people read and comment.
Sorry to those of you who check back here for fresh, pithy posts from your’s truly. I’ve simply been buried in work for AudioMonk. It’s a good problem to have, but I’m getting that drinking-from-a-firehose effect. As a matter of fact, I’m probably going to have to farm out some work to keep up.
I’m not [...]
AudioMonk.com is now live and accepting work.
So I’m rounding the corner this morning on the S-curve in my neighborhood when I notice my car is going sideways.
“This isn’t good,” I mutter.
At a stately slide of ten miles per hour, I watch a couple of mailboxes and two newspaper boxes vanish under the passenger side as I execute a perfect reverse T-bone, [...]
Yeah, I’ve been away awhile. I keep teasing you with promises to blog more, only to leave the page distressingly blank. I’m sure you all are pining for more content, waiting breathlessly for my latest dollop of nonsense.
I can only wish.
I’ve been busy. And sick. The sick part is essentially dull to anyone other than [...]
The FDA approved Slentrol for obese dogs. I’ve been the QA guy on this product for over a year now, working through the validations and trials.
Strange to see it on CNN.
I’m now in Day 10 of the Cold, and while I’m certainly on the mend, I’m still not feeling up to my usual standards. This thing has migrated to my sinuses, ears and any other remotely accessible hollow portion of my skull. It makes for an unpleasant existence.
As a result, I’m really not [...]
You know who you are.
Wishing all the best to Bangkok. We’ve taken the best path, but it isn’t without pain. Find happiness.
In talking with Chris at lunch today, I was reminded of a line from the X-Files that resonated with me when I first saw it in 1996 or so. Ironically, Chris recalled it perfectly because it had the same effect on him. Thanks to Google, I thought I’d share.
What does it say about [...]
Back from Vacation. Posting will resume shortly.
I’m out of town this week, so posting will come in surges. Usually I get a lot of material ready for the blog while having the time off, and I’m sure this will be no different.
More later.
To Chris Gidman, occasional contributor and frequent commenter to this space, turning 40 today. Enjoy the day off!
I have my hands full with a number of things today, so content will probably be light.
A few notes. The second animated AAR (Bring up the Boys) will be posted later this evening. I have the presentation finished and now I just have to record the narration. I’ve added a link to [...]
Every year, 6/9 marks an observance for me. On the above date, in the early morning hours, a very important friend of mine killed himself at the age of 25.
I have no intention of getting all maudlin about it here.
But there are some interesting observations that I’d like to make. For one, Dave’s [...]
For the past few weeks, I’ve been helping out with an audit at work. My function has mainly been as a scribe, sitting in the conference room and doing my best to capture everything that happens during the nine or ten hours of auditing. My curse is my ability to type and my [...]
