Thoughts On Sci-Fi
01.22.2007 A brief essay on what isn't good about science fiction.
LET'S BE SERIOUS
06.20.2005 Let's drop the a-bomb of politics on a website that normally doesn't discuss such things unless thinly veiled behind sub-par fiction.
LOVE STINKS
02.18.2002 When I was near tears she finally relented and, after a few seconds that seemed to stretch into days of looking into her eyes for a reason why, I ran to the office for a band-aid to patch my new wound.
THE SILENT CITY
09.12.2001 From the roof of my apartment building, one of my friends and I would sit atop it and gaze at the awesome sight of the twin towers that rose, as most of the country now knows, one-hundred and ten floors into the sky.
YES, LADIES, I AM A BAD GUY
05.28.2001 As a founding member, I blocked the addition of a new kid to the board and in abstentia the next week, was elected out of the game. Fights ensued. Things were said. I was definitely a bad guy then.
TIME FOR A NEW MAN ON THE MOON
04.02.2001 The way I see it, it's like the knight in the Last Crusade, they're stuck there, for however long, until someone comes to replace them but it's better than the movie because I doubt I'd have to fight them.
I WAS ALMOST ALWAYS FED AS A CHILD
03.19.2001 Dad had a tendency to overcook everything, which was fine with eggs because there is nothing worse than runny eggs.
BONNIE SCOTT, YOU CHANGED ME
02.26.2001 The two of us quickly bonded over the two things we had in common. Star Trek and the Red Hot Chili Peppers. I was in eighth grade at the time and it was the only band I knew.
SOMEWHERE COMICS WENT WRONG
01.29.2001 Comics, even as little as six years ago, were a fun an interesting medium for both pop culture and entertianment. Looking at the state of things now, where the hell did things go wrong?
MY LIFE BUILT ON CRIME
01.15.2001 It was as sweltering a summer as the dry California heat gets, and it was during one too many days, sweating in the ticket booth at the drive-in, that he made a decision that would forever change the course of his future.
THIS WHOLE MIDDLE EAST THING
01.08.2001 Maybe it's just us, but is anyone else seeing what what's going on here. A rare spudWorks look at the news and the latest spate of Middle East violence.
NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS
01.01.2001 Everyone always has a few New Years resolutions. Read and see how well we know you.
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ONE AND ALL
12.25.2000 Christmas 2000 is upon us, and while most are opening presents, some of us are giving thanks for what we already have.
A SOFT DRINK AND A CIGARETTE
09.04.2000 It's so easy to get caught up in the day-to-day of life that sometimes you have to remember the little things. spudWorks President & CEO Colin Ferm shares one of his moments in a reflective piece.
A THOUGHT ABOUT SMOKING
05.08.2000 Sure, people don't like it. Sure, it's not good for you. Sure, it's even killed people, but is it so bad if some of us LIKE to smoke? Colin examines why he enjoys smoking so.
ERRODING RIGHTS
04.26.2000 It may be overly topical, but it's more than a little bit scary that the Justice Department can raid a home in America and the majority of the country says it's fine by them.
