I won't lie: I still hope someday to get that "TC culture club" off the ground so we can talk about books, movies, and other forms of entertainment to our hearts' content. Go »Another Hang-Up
This topic is probably far too mundane to be worthy of discussion, but three similar songs played in sequence in my CD changer just now, and it got me wondering. Go »Happy Birthday, Goo Game
Today is the fifth anniversary of Celebrity Goo Game. Other than my home page, which maybe doesn't count because it's gone through seven different versions and a couple of years of downtime, the goo game is now my longest running site, and definitely my most popular. Go »Pulse

The other night I had a dream about Jon Bon Jovi. I had returned to Bradley University and seen some old friends, and most of the dream was about that, but at one point I went to the bookstore in the Peoria mall, and he was there.
JBJ: "Hey, man! How you doin'!"
me: "Uh, fine."
JBJ: "Hey, that's great. So, what's up?"
me: "Uh, not much. I just moved back to town."
JBJ: "Cool, man. Hey, we should hang out sometime."
me: "I guess so. Don't you still owe me money?"
JBJ: "Yeah. I'll pay it back. So, what are you doin' for New Year's?"
me: "I dunno, why?"
JBJ: "Cause we should hang out, man!"
me: "Are you having a party?"
JBJ: "Eh, no. They shut off the power in my apartment."
me: "Oh."
JBJ: "But we could have it at your place."
me: "Maybe. Look, I've got to get going."
And I walked away. He looked like he wanted to ask me if he could borrow a few bucks.
