Important Thoughts on Teaching
My most positive learning experience was between Gr. 9 to Gr. 11. I remember when I was in my math class during those years I was able to enter something I called, the flow zone. This was my greatest learning state. During this fraction of time, I was able to almost absorb the content and knowledge being taught to me by my teacher.

God's Own Hamburger
I sit here looking for the words or a hook to catch your interest in this piece, and I don’t seem to be able to come up with anything clever, interesting, or witty. It is a strange feeling for someone who has chosen to make writing their career to not have the words to put on a page for an introduction to memories from my childhood which I cherish, so I guess I’ll just jump in.

Bloodlines
There weren't always dragons in the Valley. In fact, the heroes of the old world were said to have annihilated them all in the ages long forgotten; so that our people could live in safety and peace, or so our histories had taught. The Dragons had been gone from the world for centuries until a Mother worried about her child's wellbeing, stumbled upon a discovery that would change the world we lived in forever.

I Understand...
I write this to my Mother-In-Law on behalf of the one I love most in this whole world. I don’t do this out of hate, or anger. In fact, I love and care for you. I do this because my wife won’t ever say this to you, and you won’t read this, but it’s important for you to hear.

Slava Ukraini
As I sit here at my PC to write this on a sunny and fairly warm March afternoon in North America, I find myself at a loss for words. Nothing I say can take the pain away from those who suffer needlessly at the hands of a maniac dictator-wanna-be’s attempt to rebuild a failed Communist state. All those soldiers fighting through the bitter cold, watching their people get slaughtered indiscriminately because they are winning a fight brought to their doorstep and refuse to bow to a bloodthirsty Tsar want-to-be.

Hunt: Showdown, A Review
I figured I would take a break from all my serious writing to complete a quick review for Hunt: Showdown. Recently (as in this morning) I finished writing a heavy piece called "The Owl Spirit" for one of the lovely challenges Vocal runs. It was depressing, dark, but had a nice ending. I felt that to help get rid of some of that negative energy I would review this excellent game to replace some of that bad energy.

The Owl Spirit
“People tell you it gets better after high school. All the bullying, all the popularity contests, the “stress” it all goes away once you graduate. No more tests, no more teachers, no more “cool kids” and “losers”. The ridicule and bullying all stop if you can just get through those four years.

The Privateer
“Oh, the year was 1778 How I wish I was in Sherbrooke now! A letter of marque came from the king To the scummiest vessel, I'd ever seen. God damn them all! I was told we'd cruise the seas for American gold. We'd fire no guns-shed no tears Now I'm a broken man on a Halifax pier The last of Barrett's Privateers...”

Not-A-Radio-Story
"Has she been doing it again?" I heard the orderly’s annoyingly raspy, whisper of a voice, ask his colleague outside my door. They always talk like I’m not here, it’s like I am a ghost to them. The worst part is that blasted Radio I always hear playing from somewhere. Day, night, always playing...something.
