Quite frankly, I had had enough of the French and the Egyptians. My Roman cities were quite the prize for both empires; both wanted their religions to be the dominant faith in our little world. And so while I continued to work on launching a satellite into orbit, France and…
The last time I was in the confessional, I fessed up to my history as a professional wrestling fan. This time, I want to talk about a rather strange hobby I had about ten years ago. For two and a half years, I published a diary in an on-line forum…
I used to play Skyrim like you, but then I took an arrow to the knee… Okay, it’s an old meme, but it kind of fits this time around. Let me back up and make my confession all right and proper. I still haven’t finished playing Skyrim. I know, that…
My poor master, Phileas Fogg! We were doing so well in his frantic trip around the world. We had made it through Europe just fine, but then we were asked to escort a young lady from Tehran to Omsk. Maybe we shouldn’t have made that detour, but as it turned…

Have you noticed that, with one of the latest updates to Facebook, they’ve added a “Trending” newsfeed? It’s a short list of the top stories that’s setting Facebook abuzzing. I usually ignore it, but every now and then, I’ll spot something that catches my attention. So you can imagine my…
