Intentional Time

I was an engineering major.  Hated it.  To avoid dying of complete boredom, I took a couple of philosophy electives.  Lots of words in philosophy.  Lots of big words in philosophy.  And soooo esoteric.  But I did manage to take away a few really deep and powerful concepts:

  1. You don't lead an intentional life until you come to terms with your own death. 
  2. In general, female philosophy students are better looking than their engineering counterparts. 
  3. But then again, they don't shave their armpits. 
  4. Still, why should I complain about that?  It's not like they talk to me, anyway.

I paid good money for my education.

Rule 3: Invest Wisely (The Rock Stars)


"The Intervention"

An Original Screenplay

Oregon Deadwood



FADE IN:

INT. DEADWOOD'S HOME - EVENING

Three well-dressed, distinguished, intelligent, white males sit on an old and uncomfortable couch.  Well, two are distinguished.  One is kind of frumpy.  All are clearly annoyed and impatient. 

DEADWOOD, a middle-aged, average height, balding (don't you think he knows that?) blogger from the Northwest is running around putting snacks on the coffee table (chips, nuts, beer).  The doorbell rings.  Deadwood anxiously answers the door.
