Another Thursday is upon us, thus it is time for another Booking Through Thursday question!
Sometimes I find eccentric characters quirky and fun, other times I find them too unbelievable and annoying. What are some of the more outrageous characters you’ve read, and how do you feel about them?
Right now, for the life of me, I […]

Until recently I had never heard the name of Frederik Magle before, a grave oversight on my part. Of course, I do have a bad tendency to remember the music, but not the name of the composer or performer.
Frederik Magle is a Danish contemporary classical music composer who began composing at the young […]

My grandfather just brought me the mail from the P.O. box today and along with my W2 from NMSU I also got an envelope from Camel. I opened it and what do I find? Two coupons for $2 dollars off any pack of Camel cigarettes, although it’s obvious they would prefer I use them for […]

When you were a kid, did you ever press or smash a penny? Or were you taught never to destroy money? On a couple of occasions I got to vandalize the image of Abraham Lincoln when I was a kid. The railroad tracks aren’t far from my house, a ten minute ride on a […]

We’ve all been seeing the influx of advertisement boasting the benefits of audio advertising right? I know I was tempted by the chance to earn revenue per impression rather than just per click. I don’t deny it, I was thinking of signing up and installing the audio ad on a page or two and seeing […]

I went up to the post office earlier today to mail out a few books I had sold on Amazon and one of the postal workers came and brought me my mail that had just come in, which I wouldn’t have been able to get until tomorrow otherwise since it was literally “off the truck” […]

Once upon a time there was a sweet and adorable, but cantankerous, little old kitty named Isis. Isis considered herself the monarch of the land, even though she was the smallest and daintiest creature in the old house. One day, after successfully chasing her sister Denali from the room, Isis curled up on her favorite […]

The theme for this week’s Mute Monday is Collections, which I have a lot of in fact. This time around I decided to take some snapshots of a few of my various collections. And believe me, I never really realized how much stuff I have until I tried to take pictures of it and I […]

If you’re like me then you enjoy listening to a wide variety of music. Orchestral, rock, metal, pop, Japanese rock, swing, tejano - you name it I’ll probably listen to it at least once. Reggae is a genre that I am exceptionally picky about and I confess to not caring much for many of the […]

I found an interesting flier stuck to our screen door today. It will be beneficial to me, and thankfully, I found it before my grandfather saw it.

It’s actually been a while since I bothered to check my search strings to see what is bringing people to my site, but after reading on some blogs and forums that people’s Google traffic had dropped recently I decided to check over my stats. Referrals from Google to N-I are the same thankfully, but that’s […]
