Now a book of short stories

The Incredible True Facts of Space Book of Short Stories

After years of intercepted transmissions, impossible memories, highly questionable science, counterfeit products, suspicious observations, and discoveries. that should have remained politely undiscovered, the containment procedures have failed. Inside this book you will find a collection of short stories from a universe where aliens watch late-night television, ordinary objects develop unreasonable intentions, reality occasionally forgets what it was doing, and entirely fictional products somehow seem overdue. Some pages are science fiction. Some are comedy. Some read like documentary evidence from a civilization that misunderstood Earth but kept taking notes anyway. Experts have described the book as “not submitted for review.” The Incredible True Facts of Space arrives soon on Amazon. You have been informed. https://www.amazon.com/Incredilbe-True-Facts-Space-Hilarious-ebook/dp/B0H7FM5D2F

Happy Birthday Lego! Lego turns 50


Lego is 50. Thanks for all the good times my
plastic friend. My most ambitious project was
trying to build a robot that would stand up on
its own two legs. Now they have many kits
that make this quite easy. My design involved lots
of lego ingenuity and rubber bands. I can still feel them
between my teeth if I think about them, lego's that is.
I played tron on the Xbox 360 this weekend, the old tron the one
from the arcade. I didn't buy it or anything, but I played the
trail version. I'd probably be willing to pay around $1.50 for it.

It's weird to wish a corporate product a happy birthday. On the one hand
I gladly wish LEGO the thing, entity in my mind a happy birthday, and I
like to read about Lego, and I honestly hope the company is doing
well, it's just that anytime you think about these things, it brings up all these
weird dualities where you love the idea, but not the corporation. Corporations
are inherently selfish non entities. They exist so that people could invest in
speculative ventures without risking their personal net worth other than the
cost of their investment. That's fair enough. But when it comes to matters of
the heart, and matters of important cultural touchstones such as Lego's you have to seperate
those important things from the void that is a corporation.

Anyway happy birthday Lego.
