Prospero the Evocation Specialist - Tabletop Day
For the last year or so I have been playing a weekly Pathfinder/D&D3.5 game. Before we started I created a little backstory for the Wizard I would be playing, Prospero. I think creating the backstory is probably the thing I enjoy most about table top gaming. With Tabletop day approaching rapidly and me having a day full of bike polo to play instead of tabletoping, I felt it might be...
The Walking Dead Finale - Predictions and Fears...
With the Walking Dead’s latest season scheduled to wrap up this coming Sunday, everyone is on the edge of their seat with excitement. Those of us who have read the comic books are terrified…
I have a theory, and I am putting it out there now, before the finale airs. Be Warned…If you are not up on The Walking Dead Comics, I am about to spoil some heavy things here.

Bicycle Bling: Skully K2 Lights
Whenever I take my daughter to my favorite local bicycle shop, Virtuous Cycles, we always have to stop to look at the bells, streamers, and other assorted fun bicycle attachments aimed at children. Ok that isn’t entirely true, it just so happens that the bells and streamers are also located in the same section as the grip tape, those awesome cages that hold your coffee cup, and lights....

Loving the Commute: Back to Basics
Originally posted written for Lovingthebike.com
I love to ride my bike. I can say that most of the time my train of thought eventually leads back to some aspect of cycling. I started commuting by bike as part of a fitness goal. I’ll never forget the feeling I had the first time I rode my first commute to work on my first adult bike. Two bikes and thousands of miles later and I’m still...

Loving the Commute: Gear Review
Originally posted on Lovingthebike.com
It’s been a while since we have talked commuting gear in this little series so I thought it was time for an update. It seems like there isn’t a day that goes by that some new and exciting piece of equipment that you simply must have is introduced to the market. I blame Fancy and Pinterest for being able to assemble a seemingly endless supply of unique and...

The Joy's of Table Top Role Playing
For the last several years now I have spent one night a week sitting around a table at with a group of friends casting spells and slaying demonic creatures with dice. That’s right, I am a role player. If you have never experienced the magic of a role playing game, let me paint you a little picture.
There weren’t many people around when you rode your barely functioning cybernetic horse...

Joining the Century Club- Part 1
This past Saturday I accomplished one of my major cycling goals… I rode a century. For those that might not be up on the “lingo” a century means 100 miles. Yes, I know…I am awesome. Forgive me if I sound a bit egotistical, but as I write this it is still only a couple days since the big ride, and I feel like I am pretty...

Loving the Commute Series

I have a secret to tell… I want to be a racer. In fact, this fall I plan on competing in my first race at the Mass Ave Crit in Indianapolis. I have some friends that are coaches, and hope to take advantage of their services some day, but until then I am resolved to search the internet for tips and tricks. The...

Loving the Commute: Fixie Edition
Originally posted on Lovingthebike.com
Several months ago I decided to use some of the old bike parts in my garage to try to assemble my own fixed gear bike. For those that don’t know, fixed gear bikes are not just for people with mustaches. Fixed gear bikes actually started out as track bikes before slowly becoming the universal designation for bike messengers and hipsters. Bike...

Lovely Literature and Loquacious Lords and Ladies:...
I am an escapist. My favorite movies, games, books, and even music, are those that take me someplace else. That said, I always found it rather annoying when people tried to say that all movies, games, books, and music are for escapists like myself, and that this desire to escape and the correlating facilitation of such behaviors is “unhealthy”. The fact is… while the goal of these mediums...

Saga #1 - Brian K Vaughans Triumphant Return
Brian K Vaughan has been one of my favorite writers for a long time. A fellow Midwesterner, BKV, has repeatedly made his mark on the comic book industry, as well as the television world. His series Y: The Last Man, and the more recently concluded Ex Machina are just two examples of his sterling record as a comic book artist. Most of his fans also associate the only good seasons of the once great...

Loving the Commute Edition 3
(Originally posted on Lovingthebike.com February 2012)
I love my lycra as much as the next guy. To me a nice kit says confidence, dedication, pride, and style. Unfortunately, to the 30 or 40 cubicles I pass in the morning after my commute on the way to our office locker-room, I think my kits say something else entirely. For a good month or two I would strut my stuff and “peacock” my way...

Lovely Literature and Loquacious Lords and Ladies:...
I’ve always wanted to be in a book club. I didn’t always read a lot, in fact it took me a lot of self discipline to get to the point I am at now. Ever since the beginning of high school I have made an effort to read a book a month. Sometimes that happened, sometimes it didn’t, but I can at least say I am almost always reading something. At the end of 2011 I decided to quit...

Comics and the Digital Age
(Originally posted August 2010 on www.GuerrillaGeek.com)
It is the digital age. As most know, now even books, one of our oldest forms of passing knowledge from generation to generation has gone digital. What you might not know is just how much or how fast the digitization of the written word is taking place. Digital books now outsell Hardcovers copies (according to Amazon.com). Apparently 142...

The Plight of the Comic Book Loyalist

It’s an age-old tale, Batman and Robin are fighting the Joker and Harvey again, when, in the midst of an unknown-sized arc, a new character is introduced. Whether an unexpected turn of events, an odd plot twist, or perhaps some event involving another hero or villain which needs its own back story and explanation, the need for an...

(Originally Posted March 2011 www.GuerillaGeek.com)
A long time ago, I got fed up with super hero comics. With my interest in all things caped and masked waning, I needed something new to read. I began reading as many comics as I could that had as little to do with super heroes and the culture there of as possible. Over the past six months specifically, I have encountered a wide variety of...

Uncharted: The Greatest Series Ever Created

For those that ride the same slow moving train that I did, the Uncharted games are about a treasure hunter named...

Communication is the Key
(First Posting)
It’s not really a secret; communication is the key to success in any relationship. Every relationship from the one you create in five minutes with the pizza guy, to the one you foster over years with your significant other, to the one with your employees can only be successful if you embrace and practice good communication. The question then becomes, “What is good communication?”...
