Hard Disk Failure Imminent

Posted by: branwynne77 on: September 30, 2007

(This rant brought to by the crappiness of computers nowadays.)
Ok. I’ve had this so called “wonderful” computer for 3 1/2 to 4 months. It should NOT be on the verge of losing the hard drive. I’m not sure if the wiring has gone haywire, or if it is a Vista related issue.
But whatever it is, [...]

Yesterday’s odd post brought to you by the power of Percocet. Get all your teeth yanked and receive your bottle today!
Actually, I did write that after I had taken one of those white little pills. I remember thinking myself oh so clever and cute. Then I got my drugged up self to bed. I read [...]

Work. The Final Frontier

Posted by: branwynne77 on: September 28, 2007

Welcome to the work related voyages of one person, valiantly making her way through endless mountains of razor sharp paper. She dodges her boss, an Admiral in the Federation, who tries in vain to push more work upon this hapless employee…
All the while, this intrepid (yet hapless) traveler tackles learning a new system. All that [...]

Graphic Monday…sorta

Posted by: branwynne77 on: September 25, 2007

Comic Books that I would like to see brought to the Big Screen:

The Preacher
The Walking Dead
Captain America

Comic Books that shouldn’t ever be made (whether or not they’re already out there):

Fantastic Four
Archie
Jimmy Olson and Pals

Nick Fury–it depends on who is starring and directing it. Tommy Lee Jones would be an excellent Nick Fury.
I think the comic [...]

I hate Dentists.

Posted by: branwynne77 on: September 24, 2007

I’m fine. Pulled through. Except there was a slight change of plans. The dental surgeon thought that the dentures would work without the bone scraping–so they went ahead and extracted all my teeth.Pain. Blood. Panic ensued, even as doped up as I was.
Guess what? The dentures rubbed me raw…I can’t wear them.
I’m calling in sick [...]

Homeless Part II

Posted by: branwynne77 on: September 19, 2007

Me: What would you like other people to know about the homeless?
Man 1: Homeless people that have mental disorders can’t help it. It’s not contagious. Sometimes, we fall through the cracks and could use some extra help.
Man 2: Just because someone is currently homeless doesn’t make them lazy.
Lady: If we want to fix homeless, we [...]

Homeless

Posted by: branwynne77 on: September 16, 2007

(Fake interviews. Trying to address the issue creatively.)
Me: I’m here in downtown [somewhere out on the West Coast]. We have a problem with hunger and homelessness here and I’m going to ask a few people what caused it.
Me: I’ve got three people here and I’d like to ask them: What led you to this point [...]
