I’ve been feeling really good about life lately, and pretty much every day is almost all smiles lately. Things are just starting to feel right. I started taking my daily vitamins about two weeks ago, the replaced the pos ones with some better ones last weekend, and added a sub-lingual B12 complex to it. Today, …
The next life change, SLLLLLOOWWWW progress on script, partying, another lost friend Read More »
So, I discovered yet another new thing. It only takes 5 words to completely change your life. Someone did that to me today. Wow. The world is, as a friend of mine said, a magical place. Romantic notions are reality. And real life stories can start with “Once upon a time…” I’ve always been a …
I hate online quizes and personality tests. If it’s an online personality test, pick the most evil mother fucker on the list, and that’s who I end up being. Very strange. The Star Wars “who are you” one identified me as Emperor Palpatine! But every once in a while I run into one I have …
Today definitely falls in the category of good days 🙂 Granted, any day that starts with someone messaging me a “Good Morning” on my phone is a good day anyway! Managed to get the resteraunt project going further down the road, after A LOT of difficulties. The difficulties in the project aren’t all done yet, …
“The world is a magical place” “The world is a magical place.” There are a ton of phrases that I carry around with me, that I’ve picked up from one place or another, and a few I coined myself. One of my business partners has been known to quote me, and even wrote one of …
I’ve started the second draft of the screenplay. NOW I’m much more happy with things – the first 1/2 or so was pretty standard romantic comedy stuff. You know, the characters get to know each other, a little build up, and they start making that connection. Problem is, it was pretty standard stuff after that …
Movie progress, another video project, and webcam time Read More »
“Once upon a time Once when you were mine I remember skies Reflected in your eyes I wonder where you are I wonder if you Think about me Once upon a time In your wildest dreams” “Once the world was new Our bodies felt the morning dew That greets the brand new day We couldn’t …
For the most part, I hate change. But sometimes it’s nessisary. And sometimes, well, it’s just prefered. In this case. I’m tired of being chumped for pay by one of my partners – when I needed it most so I could buy Christmas presents, he tells me he’s going to make some phone calls, and …
Ahh, today was Christmas shopping day. Went with my room mate Meredith and well, never actually managed to get any of my Christmas gifts purchased. Which means I’ll do it again by myself tomarrow (it’s much more fun to go Christmas shopping with a friend) Christmas shopping is a love / hate thing with me …
Well, something finally went right :-)Â I now have a new female co-host for the TV show again – Abri. Hopefully this is the beginning of a trend of things going right for a while 🙂
It’s not often you leave a restraunt with a conversation like this: “See ya, goat fucker.” “Later, Gallager!” And not have a fist fight break out. But that’s what eating at Bomber Burger is like quite often – random people you don’t really know get involved in every conversation. You pretty much want to NOT …

Sometimes interesting things happen that just kind of throw you off on the schedule you’ve set for yourself. Case in point – this weekend, I should have had money. Not tons, but, hey it’s just the beginning of my slow rebuilding process. I’m building, in this case, a resteraunt for a friend who needed a …
One of the… er… interesting I suppose… things about being divorced is eventually, you’ll probably think about dating again. So I’m pretty much to that stage. I’m a bit odd – I realize that there’s a chance I’ll spend the rest of my life alone without finding someone who’s a good match for me (because …
Before I even bother with my first entry, checking out a blogging tool (Performancing + the MySpace addon) so I have a reasonable editor. Since the folks at MySpace can’t figure out how to write a simple AJAX based editor to work on Mac OS X + Firefox 🙂
Ah, welcome to my blog. Set down, relax a bit, have a cuppa tea or beverage of choice. Comfy? Good. Because I gotta warn ya’ – I talk a lot. I mean in copious volumes. This isn’t my first blog – you can find me on Garage Games posting about game related topics (back when …

Yeah, I’ve been a little busy. 🙂 For a while, I got completely out of game development – I spent 100% of my time doing things like trying to get Gamer Zone, a Wichita, Kansas based LAN gaming center going like crazy. Running a one person indie game company takes a lot of time. You …
For anyone who’s been watching the evolution of World of Gamer Zone through my blog on myspace or Xanga… sorry, things have been pretty messed up lately, and you’ll see why when you read below. Most of the major events in my life can be described as positive in one way or another. I view …
Wow. I am now of the opinion that someone needs to hunt down that bastard Murphy and shoot him. ‘Cause we’ve managed to have pretty much everything go wrong that could (I did manage to think of scenarios that didn’t happen, just for future damage control and planning. But man those get ugly.) So here’s …

 Well, DDR is back up again (stepmania, as some people will correct me  This time we’ve got a metal pad, plus the previous PoS plexiglass pad. Woohoo – DDR good  It was actually up last night, but, I didn’t post about it mainly to give it a little time to break or work – …
DDR back up (with a metal pad this time), more TV stuff Read More »
 Episode 2 of World of Gamer Zone has been taped – this time, it was shot outside in the parking lot, since it was “Final Friday”. Basically an attempt to gain extra attention to the show and to GamerZone  This one went MUCH better in a lot of ways – we still have more …
 So, I set up the World of Gamer Zone site a short while back, and on the 25th I got around to setting up the stat tracking system for the site. It rolls over past midnight, and about 4 AM I’m talking to my wife online, and there’s a bunch of hits on the …
 So, in three days time I had three mettings on various stuff – one with KTQW to get the air times and talk about what we’ve got in mind for the future, and what we’re planning on doing with the webcast version of the show. For those wondering when it’s going to air: Thusdays …
Air dates set for show, 3 days, 3 meetings and 3 websites Read More »
 DDR is now back up and running. This is using a concept that Doc Tim from Agents came up with to help prevent the ceiling from falling down in the storage room – it’s going to take a while to see if that idea is going to work or not. This is using the …
 So, I’ve given up on predicting what the heck traffic flow at GamerZone is going to be like on any given day. I used to predict forward by a couple of days, even up to a week. And I used to be right at one time. Then we moved to Delano, and it got …

 Let’s get the coolest part of the news out first: It’s official, “World Of Gamer Zone” is real. We shot E101 (the pilot for us), edited it, did all the cool stuff, etc., and got the job done. Today about 10 AM we showed it off to KTQW, and they were extatic. Originally we …
Well, we did it – we’ve shot episode one. It’s not “done” yet though – right now I’m bored as hell backing up all the raw footage that was imported to Final Cut Pro to DVD in a raw uncut format. We decided to take a “save everything” approach to the process – no footage …
 Time has now slowed to a crawl. There are 2 1/2 hours left until my Co-host gets here, and we shoot episode one of World of Game Zone. Nope – not nervous. Just ready to do this thing – I’ve been ready for a while now. But no… time has to slow down instead. …
2 1/2 hours to go until we shoot Episode 1, things get cooler at GamerZone Read More »
Today we shot an episode of “Delano This Week” at Gamer Zone.  Woohoo – basically boils down to a 30 minute long commercial for GZ for free.  Talk about handy It was pretty cool to do (I’m not at all shy in front of a video camera when business is involved , and was also …

 It’s not often I would refer to a webcomic as genius story telling. In fact, this may be the only time I have – most webcomics are great brain fluff (I have a huge list of comics I hit on a daily basis using Darkgate comic sluper so I hit ’em all at once). …
Absolute genius web comic – and not the funny type either Read More »
Gamer Zone’s full bore TV show will start shooting June 9th, somewhere aroun 4 PM or so (it’s going to take a couple hours to get setup, get things ready to roll, etc.) I was under the impression these were going to be the un-aired pilots, not something that was going to air. Oops – …
