Staring into the Void
I spend to much time looking at screens. I’ve got a top notch personal computer, a decent cell phone, and a Fire TV. I’m thinking about all the empty white space on this webpage. I am staring into the void and wondering how to fill it. If you are here you probably stare into the…

What Olympic sports do you enjoy watching the most? This question is presumptuous. First of all, I have a hard time sitting and watching anything.

One Year Anniversary
