Writing is fun for me. I know it’s strange, but writing has gotten me through some rough times. It helps me organize my thoughts as I work through a problem. It helps me release stress or frustration, to let it go. Between writing, reading, and music, sometimes I think that, given time, I could solve …

If I Had $99 Billion
They’re not even trying anymore. The CBO is out, and all that bullshit Paul Ryan and the rest of the GOP have been shoveling our direction about much-needed tax breaks for the middle class and the poor? Yeah, they’re done lying about that. But we could still do our taxes on a postcard. Never mind …

In an attempt to keep things …
