They can kill you, but the legalities of eating you are somewhat stickier.

Hey gang, I haven’t been doing very much writing of my own yet. The basic plan as of now is to secure one of those “Here’s how to Write X” books, and to go through the exercises and to put them up here and to brainstorm and sift through ideas and settle on something to [...]

Effing television

I’ve been watching too much television lately, and I’ve generally been doing too much of nothing. I think Leila was right when she told me not to bring my television along to college.

Phat.

There are no beats here.
Okay, I’m still not feeling inspired, but I guess being a real, actual-factual blogger means that you have to write regardless of whether you’re feeling inspired or not.
Um.
My Computer Science professor is an odd guy. He has this odd idea that creating odd, complex analogies relating the way computers work to [...]
