Faith - A Hymn by George Michael

While I have never been a spiritual person, I have always been tolerant of others spirituality. Quite honestly, it is amazing to me that so many people can blindly believe in religion (take your pick). I’m not mocking, poking fun at, or trying to depreciate the value of religion to believers. No, I am simply […]

Presidential Human Resources: America’s Job

I’ve had dozens of interviews in the past two months and only recently been hired. Looking for a job is a frustrating business. Of course, I will walk out on a limb and suppose that hiring is an equally frustrating job. Human Resources personnel consider numerous character aspects while sifting through job applicants. What is […]

Coming Home

Its not very often that I identify with characters in television shows, video games, movies, or most any form of entertainment. A part of me, and I’d like to believe that a part of us all, wants to be swept up into a reality far removed from our own. Everyone needs a break from crises, […]

Working Girl

I went shopping today to buy some slacks for an interview I have tomorrow.
Dressing up, for me, is equivalent to walking around with a large flashing sign on my head which reads, “I’m a jackass.” I hate dressing up so badly I have told everyone close to me that when I die, no one is […]

An Affair to Remember

I think I would make an excellent President. Why? Because I don’t want to be President.
George Washington, the first President of the United States of America, didn’t want to be President. In fact, he loathed the idea. It is common knowledge that during the American Revolution, Washington fought for the right of the colonists to […]

To my readers,
I currently live in the Pacific Northwest - a place where the trees are forever green and the tap water is tainted with sarcasm. I am a daughter, granddaughter, cousin, and sister (although not necessarily in that order). I have a tendency to over-analyze and over-emphasize. For example, why am I […]

Tangled Up In Blue

The Ruins, by Scott Smith, is a captivating thriller from start to finish. Smith, also the author of A Simple Plan, seems to have an intimate understanding of psychological warfare and, fortunately, knows just how to write it. In The Ruins characters battle their own demons while at the same time battling the demons of […]

What does “we” do for “me”?

Obama is first and foremost a very charismatic man. He is vaguely reminiscent of a motivational speaker - a speaker who encourages the individual to accept responsibility for their life path all the while offering up bits of conventional wisdom. He suckers supporters with his smooth, confident, hope inspiring message. Trust me, I […]

Flipping the Bird: A New Television Series

I loathe television networks.
I can no longer count on one hand how many times I have become invested in a television series and before it has had the opportunity to come to fruition the network has taken it off the air. Does this upset anyone else? Or am I simply alone in my hate mongering? […]

A Second Chance In Second Life

A week ago today, I was sitting on my couch watching an episode of “The Big Bang Theory.” The show is mediocre entertainment at best. I enjoy it because I identify with the nerdy eccentricities of the main characters. Although, if I have a choice between watching The Big Bang Theory and October Road, I’m […]

Suffocating Stress

I’m wound about as tight as a tether ball that’s been endlessly beaten around the same side of a pole every day for the last 20 years.
Some &*^%-head opened a Paypal claim against me for a transaction on eBay a couple of weeks ago. (The purchase actually occurred almost a month and a half ago […]

Snap, Crackle, Plop

Last night I watched Frank Darabont tear Stephen King’s novella, “The Mist,” into papier-mache, eat it, regurgitate it, and then crap it back out. Darabont, in a last ditch effort to make the past 123 minutes of my time worthwhile, then proceeded to wipe his ass all over my television screen for the remaining 3 […]

Hop, Skip, and Jumper

Every Sunday I watch “At the Movies with Ebert and Roeper.” The show should really be called “At the Critic War with Phillips, Scott and Roeper,” because Michael Phillips, A.O. Scott, and Richard Roeper argue over films like a pack of wild lions fighting over a flank steak. (Since Ebert was diagnosed with cancer various […]

Can You Right?

Encouraged by the success of blogs which have several contributing authors, I have elected to open several writing positions on The Word Wide Web Staff. (”Several” as in, we’ll see how many people express interest.) While I am very passionate about writing and I love communicating with readers, I believe this site could benefit from […]

I’m Satan and You’re a Minion

I try not to promote too many things on The Word Wide Web, because I find it annoying when I am at other blogs and am bombarded with 666 advertisements promoting some product I have absolutely no interest in. Anyone pick up on the 666 reference? That’s right, advertisements come from the devil. In the […]
