Some moron claiming to be associated with DomainsNext.com called me at home at 10:00 p.m., just a few minutes ago, claiming that I had written something about the company here on RR… Despite my assurance that I’d never written anything about them and that I had instead focused on their affiliate company, the infamous ItsYourDomain.com, [...]
I’m paranoid when it comes to the Internet: email, surfing, downloads, shareware, everything. And I’m not exactly a newbie when it comes to anything computer related. Last night I scanned my system with LavaSoft’s Ad-Aware and discovered ClickSpring’s MediaTicketsInstaller lurking on my computer, proof that even I can get viruses and spyware on my home [...]
Just inside the East Garrison gate of Fort Ord on the Monterey Peninsula, Chuck and Vicki raced down Inter Garrison Road on their racing bikes, intent on enjoying the late-summer day, the breeze cooling them off through the slits in their bike helmets. Forty minutes later, a medevac chopper lifted off the road in a [...]
Yesterday, a comment was posted on RR…, supposedly from John Torrey, CEO of Shareyourexperiences.com, in response to myriad comments left by other visitors that the Share Your Experiences organization is a scam in the same manner as the seemingly defunct Word of Mouth Connection.

Two weekends ago, chaos ensued: dark lonely nights of debauchery; truancy; sneaking out of houses; drugs; supreme stupidity; danger; tears; a broken-down love shack; two recliners; two beds, and a sleeping bag; minors serving alcohol to minors, beer and vodka; phone calls to parents; electrical power theft; truck stops; a freeway overpass; a visit by [...]
Last night just before midnight, as I neared the end of a two-year-long journey, I found myself racing down a residential street in frustration, heading towards yet another park. Three simple questions arise from that statement: What journey? What the heck was I doing out there around midnight? Why the frustration?
Just over two years ago, [...]
It’s looks like RR… and my (our) other blogs are going to be stuck loosely based on Movable Type version 2.63 forever. Six Apart, the creators of this terrific blogging system, have released version 3.0D and adversely updated their license agreement.
Because I have more than five authors, I’d be required to send them $100 in [...]
I certainly don’t place myself into the same basket as money-grubbing charlatans such as self-proclaimed psychic John Edwards or a certain ex-Playmate-turned-seer, but I’ve had more than a fair share of unexplainable phenomena.
