Last post, I wrote about what I’d learned in a month or two of painting miniatures again. I’m enjoying the work and the end result, and I’d like to keep going. Much as I want to avoid doing “gunna” posts, I can’t resist blogging a bit about the things in painting that I’m getting keen [...]
About a month ago, I posted about how I assembled and began painting a single Space Marine miniature. The result was good, but a bit dodgy, especially when I took a high resolution photo of the miniature. So I asked for help. And the great thing is, I got it. From Blake, the manager of the [...]
It’s been a little over six months since Kelly Gurnett published my “Reader QUIT” about expecting to disappoint on her web log, Cordelia Calls It Quits. And in that time, I’ve made some progress… but at the same time, I don’t feel like I’ve made all that much. There are reasons, of course. Over the [...]

Discovered camera only outputs video in .MOV format which Windows Movie Maker doesn’t edit. Bitched on Facebook, which resulted in friend suggesting Videopad. Downloaded Videopad. Edited clip and uploaded to YouTube. Result of around [...]

There’s one quote I’ve been noticing lately, and it goes something like this: “You’ve spent most of your life disapproving of yourself. Why not try approving of [...]
Marcus and I have been a pair of slackers on the BWI podcast. Between some log work hours for the both of us, we’ve been putting off recording an episode on our scheduled evening, and even more slack about uploading them once they’re done! So now we’re making sure we redress that. Here now are Episodes Fifteen [...]
You’ve probably noticed the headline that announces this episode as the first Brazen one. That’s because the Paid to Play Podcast has joined forces with Brazen Careerist! The folks at Brazen and I have a lot in common. We both want to help folks get the most satisfaction out of their working lives as possible. Brazen’s team of bloggers [...]
