You wouldn't by chance be able to tell me what browser / os you are using? Thanks! Saverio - Subism is a word I made up, which is why you've never heard of it. Thanks for stopping in!

Saverio – Subism is a word I made up, which is why you’ve never heard of it. Thanks for stopping in!

I mean it.

If there is room on your headstone, please consider adding-- "Fuck Ray Kroc and Bill Gates too. Please feel free to add to this list in purple crayon below." There is something wrong when the unimaginative opportunist takes from the true genius. Period. And if the wheel of karma spins rightly it will roll over this type of asshole anytime it gets a chance, and they will spend the rest of their lives "smoking a turd in hell" (a favorite saying of an old friend). And p.s., the purple crayon is in honor of a supremely creative one who has inspired me through my life-- Harold, from "Harold and the Purple Crayon". Peace.

I'm feeling pretty low these days (no job, behind on bills, trouble with my wife, blah blah blah,) so I adjusted my mood, poured a tall beer and sat on the couch in the darkness of my living room to watch anything (probably Frontline,) and just relax for a bit while my two boys slept. I opened the laptop, got online and saw some clever Google logo. I'm not much of a computer person, but I know that usually marks a holiday, or birthday of someone famous or whatever . . . so I move the cursor over to the image and find out it's Thomas Edison's hundred-something birthday, and, without hesitation, I sit up, flip the bird and yell "Fuck Thomas Edison!" I didn't have to even think about it. One minute I'm fine . . . the wife is out, the boys are sleeping, the utilities are still on, I'm drinking beer by myself . . . in the dark . . . . the next I'm cursing out loud and feeling weird about myself at the same time. Why do I Care? . . . What did that guy ever do to me? And then I remember . . . oh yeah this guy was like . . . 45 times worse than my wife thinks I am. This guy sucks. So, I sit back with the computer, and type in what I just yelled . . . and I found you. Might night is most certainly back on track. Thanks man. Ya know? . . .
