Oops

The website I mentioned in my last post proved more valuable than, even I had anticipated. It was great practice, sure, but having an audience using what I’ve created and who actually care if it works seems to make a gigantic difference.

Soon after posting the website the complaints came a flooding in. Well one trickled in a couple days later. But that isn’t any less significant. There was a problem. And a major one. His contact forms were failing to display properly in Internet Explorer. Go figure. Anyway the problem was they were left pretty much unusable. In my opinion. All kidding aside it is no-one’s fault but my own. Sorry Chris. Continue reading Oops

Nothing More To Say

Today's Empires Album Cover

You know, I couldn’t possibly hope to successfully describe just how I’m feeling about life right now. Not my life, specifically, but that of life in general. Let me tell you, it feels pretty fucking shitty…

I had an opportunity to read the article, “People Are Still Scared Of Expressing Themselves,” which recently appeared in the Ottawa Citizen. It was regarding a woman from East Timor, named Bella Galhos. Yep, that’s right, the person who inspired the song “Mate Ka Moris Ukun Rasik An.”

For what it’s worth, I didn’t choose the word “unbounded.” It was a term La La used when I asked how she’d describe me upon registering the domain for this website. And plopping the “existence” on the end was the next logical step after looking up “unbounded.com” and seeing it was already registered. Besides I like the ring of “UnboundedExistence.com.” So does Spags…

But seriously… Continue reading Determination

Happy Holidays

I’ve seen my share of counter productive behavior this holiday season. On TV, especially. I’m referring to the greatly misplaced act when people insist on being wished a “Merry Christmas,” rather than the more appropriate “Happy Holidays.”

Think about it, whether intentional or not, wishing others a “Merry Christmas” may make one feel recognized, sure, but what about those who don’t regard the same traditions as “you?” And could possibly feel, uncomfortable or slighted by such a salutation? Continue reading Happy Holidays
