Friday's Come So Slow...

Fri Jun 12 09:10:21 AM MDT 2026 Today is Friday! (Friyay!) But it feels like they come so slow. It’s sad when you look forward to the weekend. I’m not sure how that ever came on the radar, but that’s what this life feels like at times. I wish I didn’t feel this way most weeks, but that’s how I feel. It would be nice to be able to get over whatever is causing this, but what am I going to do about it? So many questions that don’t have a way of making sense. There is never a way to make sense of it all I suppose, that’s what this life is all about. If I had a way to make the future possible? I would so be on that. I’m not sure how that works though. There needs to be a way to make this life manageable. I doubt there seems to be a way to overcome anything. So many possibilities and thought processes out there, I doubt there is a way to overcome a lot in this life. Fri Jun 12 10:09:44 AM MDT 2026 I wish I could understand what this life is meant to turn out to be! I don’t get it most da...

Sliding Troubles

"I'm not sure Q-Ball. It looks like a Hamburger but it sure doesn't taste like one." Rembrandt Brown said. "I agree, this is not food. This is torture." Arturo chimed in. Quinn and Wade glanced at each other and smiled. "You were given a choice." Wade said "You two decided to eat on this world instead of waiting for the next." Rembrandt took another bite of his burger and choked it down. "Well whatever it is, I paid for it and I'm gonna finish it. How much longer till we slide?" Quinn looked to the timer. "Fifteen minutes and change." "I suppose it is our fault that we ate on a world where Cows are an endangered species." Arturo said. "I have a feeling I know why I'm not a vegetarian." The four Sliders shared in a laugh. Quinn stood "Well it's time to go." The rest of the travelers stood up and followed Quinn into a back alley where he activated the portal. One by one they jump...

Seriously Microsoft?

So I went to change my desktop background image from the current windows bleh. To something more cool. You know like Iron Man. Here's the actual image that I wanted to use. I sized the image and cropped it to what I wanted it to be. Then went looking for the place to do it. Short and simple? It isn't possible on a Windows Starter OS. Honestly? Really? You serious Microsoft? I knew there was a reason I liked Linux better. Sheesh. So, I might actually be throwing this install out the window as well. Might as well stick to Linux for the rest of my life. I already have two computers running it, why not the netbook? Not a happy camper.

Double Slide

Logan St. Claire exited the vortex from which she was sucked into. "Damn you Mallory!" She fell to the ground as a sharp pain hit her right shoulder. Logan grabbed her shoulder with her left hand. She was bleeding. Looking to the timer in her hand her pulse quickened. "Only five seconds on this world?" As the timer hit zero the vortex opened up and sucked her in again. Again she went through and exited landing in almost the exact same spot. "Why didn't I burn up?" She wondered. Looking back at the timer she read the coordinates, it was the same world. She didn't move on to a different world at all. It was the same world. "I have two days before I slide again. I have two days to figure out how to make this blasted thing not burn me up and not loop around to the same damn world slide after slide." The pain in her shoulder increased. She had to take care of it. She took a look around. Off in the distance stood the Golden Gate Bridge. "I...

Strange Reunions

The vortex opened and deposited Quinn, Wade, and Rembrandt out in the middle of a park. "Please tell me we're home!" Rembrandt yelled. "Just..." His voice trailed off as he caught a bridge in the distance. "The Azure Bridge!" Wade said excited. "We are home!" Quinn smiled, he had finally gotten his group home. Looking at the timer he put it in his pocket. "Finally." "What ... what do we do?" Wade asked. She walked over to a park bench and sat down. Quinn followed her and sat down next to her. "Wade, we're home. We look up family." "Quinn!" A voice came from accross the park. "Wade! Remmy!" The sliders looked up to see a man shouting at them. He ran over as fast as his legs would carry him. "Is it reall you?" Quinn and Arturo looked at each other and sighed. "Conrad." As Conrad Bennish walked up to them he could only smile. "You came back again!" Quinn smiled. ...

Sliders

Been watching my Sliders DVDs. (I really wish they would put season 5 on DVD). Anywhoo, it has me thinking and wondering. Since there are millions of Earth's out there. Why not just pick one and start writing new stories? Couldn't be that difficult right? Well that's what I'm thinking at least. We'll see if it happens or not. Maybe Sliders should just be put to rest. I just can't stop thinking of all the different possibilities that are out there. So many stories that have yet to be told.

Viper On YouTube

Found a place on YouTube where one can watch all of the viper episodes from all four seasons. Not too bad considering I've not seen them all. I've seen all of season 1, parts of season 2 and the first episode of season 4. So I'll be sure to be watching these. I hope eventually they'll put all of the episodes on DVD, kinda like they did with Sliders. Actually they didn't put season 5 on Sliders. I'm still waiting for that to come out. Of course I could use NetFlix but well I don't want to do that. Moslty I don't want to pay monthly to just watch old tv shows. I'd rather buy DVDs. So yep, I'm watching Viper now. Love it!

Life

Yeah, I haven't a clue what I would call today. Rented a truck to get rid of a bunch of branches and leaves from the backyard and all of that. Wasn't too bad of a day if I do say so myself. So yep, another successful day in my book. Nothing too crazy happened and life is just good.
