FASTEST. JOB. REJECTION. EVER.

October 23, 2009

Wow – I can think of a lot of words to say about this, but since I have a lot of respect for these companies, I’ll refrain from saying them.

Calling out to my friends for help…

October 18, 2009

Ok, I’m stuck.
It’s past my deadline, I STILL don’t have work (I know I won’t be getting any calls until Wednesday), and my unemployment switchover was on Thursday, so I don’t know what, if anything, I will be getting as a result of a very short season this year.  I’m equally frustrated both by the [...]

Old Songs I Wrote From College

May 13, 2009

As many of you are well aware, I’ve been writing stories, articles, and song lyrics for years now. None of it has been published, however.
As I was showing Shauna my pictures this past weekend, I came across a few things I did in the past. Although it’s unlikely any of these will go beyond where [...]

Joelle’s Failure: A Lesson In Partnerships

February 4, 2009

Last night a good thing and a bad thing happened on the Biggest Loser.

Expect something near the end of August.

July 3, 2008

I haven’t had much time or use of this blog as of late, aand I can’t promise much yet.  I am debating on what I will do with this, as much of my stuff now resides on MySpace.  Keep your eyes peeled – If I don’t kill it, you will know by the end of [...]

Simple Request

June 23, 2008

To all of the sick-minded idiots out there (I’m being extra nice here, since I am at a public library) who must insist on adding their latest gadget, sick porn, or other odds-and-ends that have no pertinence to my life (or, for that matter, hopefully not yours either):  I may not update this as regularly [...]

A Message for our Idiot Governor

January 14, 2008

Dear Mr. Not-Getting-Another-Vote-From-Me:

Five Sci-Fi Marvels I’d Like To See Come To Life…

October 27, 2007

Has anyone seen the latest issue of CPU magazine? This one has to be one of the coolest yet, in terms of articles about new technology: They break down Surface, Microsoft’s nice new tabletop computing technology, and Intel’s new technology to boost the resolution and improve the quality of video. One of [...]

A Message for those who wish to contact me…

September 7, 2007

Earlier this evening I had the distinct pleasure of losing an important number, left by someone who was trying to contact me via the IM doodads I have on my blogs.  The machine I was on – my friends machine – crashed, and all of the messages that had opened on meebo.com were lost.

More coming soon

Farewell to Season Weekend May 25th-28th!

May 14, 2007

No image to post, so bear with me.   Here’s the rundown of the 3rd annual Hooters night, which has expanded to the full weekend:

The Move is Cancelled!

April 7, 2007

Good News:  Due to some last minute talks, I will no longer be moving today.  Although a move is planned in the future (To meet the future needs of returning to school and the current need to be closer to work), there is no need to move today.  (I am prepping to go to work [...]

Temporary disconnect from the internet

April 4, 2007

Until further notice, those interested in my postings will have to view them at my myspace page at: http://www.myspace.com/w2ed
This is a temporary thing, due to the complications and events going on in my life right now.  I anticipate normalness sometime around June.  Sorry for the inconvenience.

Argh!

March 18, 2007

Double-Whammy!
So, as of last week, my cable modem, which my sister helped me with, fried itself out.  (God, I love the smell of smoke in the morning.)  I hope to be on on Friday, though a realistic assessment is that, due to cable bills and buying a new modem with the OT I have been [...]

Not-So-Random Thoughts for February 12th, 2007

February 12, 2007

Hi, my name is Wayne Winquist, and not only do I believe in God, I can prove that God exists: Look him up in the dictionary.
If “God” never existed, would the word for “God” exist? Would many of us still go looking for the best path we can take to God? You [...]

Weight Loss Help

Current Weight: 424 lbs.Goal: 400 lbsBy: Return to work.
Well, sometimes things don’t work out the way you want to. I was hoping to have my Biggest Loser App ready for the mail tomorrow, but right now I don’t have it. There’s still a shot – more in a minute – [...]

Signs of Christmas

December 22, 2006

You know, there are some good things and some bad things about this time of year. Of course, the good thing is all of the good holiday cheer, getting with family, getting gifts, and all of the fun stuff going on. The bad stuff is all the prep work, shopping, gift wrapping, fighting [...]

An Urgent Cry For Changes In Public Transportation and Responsibility in Driving.

December 18, 2006

The sad thing about this posting is that the people who need to read this the most won’t be the ones to read – rather, it will be the people who least need it that will see it. It is a compliment to my friends, yes, as many of them, for the mistakes they [...]

My Set List

December 1, 2006

The Ultimate Set List
(a.k.a. If I were in a band…)
How many people have not dreamed of being up on stage as part of a band? To be able to perform in front of throngs of people, doing the songs you grew up enjoying as a kid and teenager, for the majority of the people I [...]
