Conversation with The Petty Officer

Occuring last night an hour or two before bed when TPO admits that his indigestion is the result of his strange dessert preference (note: for dinner last night, we grilled up some steaks and had asparagus and baked beans as sides):

Two things…

#1 – Today is the day that I get my digital/broadband phone installed and give a big “screw you” to Ma Bell. Or Verizon… oh wait, they got bought out by Hawaii TelCom…. ok… how about this – “screw you” to the analog phone conglomerates. And also long distance companies. Makes me wish I knew [...]

And the winner is….

[note about this post: you may think I'm cheating by back-dating this to be posted on the 29th, but I actually wrote it on the 29th and I THOUGHT I published it on the 29th... however when I looked this morning, I saw that I had only pressed "save" rather than "publish." Yes, I'm a [...]

10 Second Movie Review #3

Went to see The Matador. For a movie with only a rudimentary story line and a Greg Kinnear gumming up the works, it wasn’t that bad. Also – is it wrong of me to think that Pierce Brosnan looks WAY better as a trashy, beer-bellied cad than he does as the suave and slick Bond [...]

Conversation with ABritishGuy

Occuring shortly after a somewhat upsetting event that I wasn’t (and still am not) going to blog about, in which ABritishGuy seals his fate… ABG: theFrog – can you do me a favor? [though, he's British, so he'd probably add a whole bunch more letters to the word "favor" than that] Me: Whatcha need? ABG: [...]

Second Interviews and a Second Chance…

So, yesterday I went on a second interview. Though the first interview went ok (I talked briefly about it in the Puppy Kindergarten post) and the second interview went better than the first, I have to say that I don’t feel very optimistic about my chances of getting this job. A lot of people say [...]

More reasons why not to sign up…

For the followers of theFrog who read the blog before the big server ‘splosion that decimated my site and caused me to lose years worth of posts, you may remember the tale of The Dreaded Ex who found my contact information via an internet “high-school nostalgia” based site. Back then I was thinking “wow – [...]
