• A New Social Detox

  Sep 17 11

  Kyle’s article got me thinking about something I want to say. I’ve heard a lot of great messages encouraging and prompting people to stop working at jobs they hate and follow their passions.

• A Few Of My Favorite Words

  Feb 09 28 language, lingo, slang, words

  Rad
  Perhaps in overuse, I’ve drug this word back up from my past. Maybe it’s my desire to see more Trapper Keepers or Grip Tape in this world. Whatever the reason, I’m sure my overuse of the [...]

• On the Job Prowl

  Feb 06 11 full time, job, Life, remote

  I’m on the prowl. That’s right, I am looking for a full-time remote position and thought that announcing it on my site wouldn’t be a half bad way of doing so. I have come into a situation where I either will do full-time freelance for Komodo Media (yes, I am taking on work) or work [...]
