Everything Old Is New Again

When I started this blog I wasn't sure what direction I wanted to take it, and exactly how I wanted to present it. A disorganized mess is what I had and when I'm disorganized I am uninspired. Well after much thought and planning I have come up with something that I think I can really work with. Welcome To The Nerdnik Lounge, a blog for my thoughts on popular culture, and the world in general. I will write reviews, lists, and editorials, etc. I think it will be fun!

I will be working over the next couple of weeks to change the graphics, colors, and theme to match the new title. It should be a blast! Stay tuned cats and kittens because the Lounge will be open for business soon!

Sepsis Is No Joke. AKA That Time I Almost Died.

I'm feeling like I'm at 80-90% now. I still have a lot of swelling in my leg and foot, but I'm getting there! I promised you the whole story so here it is.  About a week before I got sick I had a spot on my leg that was itchy. I scratched it a bit too hard and made a sore. It wasn't anything bad so I ignored it. About 3 days later the scab was weird and it came off easy so that worried me a bit so I washed it and put neosporin on and though nothing of it.  That next Friday I went to work and when I got there after my first round I sat down and started shivering, and I needed to stretch a lot. That's always my first indication that I'm getting sick. I figured it was a cold or maybe the flu even though I got my flu shot. So I went home and got some good sleep.  The next day I woke up and felt okay, so I cooked the food Jason and I were going to take to work, and when I got to work I started shivering and stretching again. I knew I was sick at this point but had no...

RIP Don Rickles

The passing of Don Rickles makes me sad on so many levels. One being he is one of the original comics who got popular during the comic explosion of the mid 50s- late 60s. Stand up comedy isn't new, it's been around for a long long time, the problem being unless you were able to go to a night club or a similar venue you weren't able to see one. Then in the mid- late 50s (I believe, it could have been a little earlier) some genius got the idea to record comic acts and put them out on records. The thing exploded. It was a full on fad.  People in Nowheresville, Middle America could listen to comedians. There were dinner parties, and cocktail parties where people would get the latest Bill Cosby record, or Lenny Bruce, and that would be the evening's entertainment. It was huge. Among the comics to profit from this was Andy Griffith (he started out as a stand up) with his slow drawl talking about a bunch of fellers thowin' a punkin around (his telling of football), Bo...

I'm published! ....Sort of.

So, I' am now an internationally published photographer. It's just one picture and it's in a Portugese book about Jim Morrison and The Doors, but still! I feel pretty good about it. It will eventually be published in English for the American and British market, so that will be really cool. Yay!
