Check Out My Ride

January 26th, 2008

 
Well…someday.
 
Virgin Galactic has just released photos of Spaceship Two, the follow up to the first commercial, manned spaccraft that also won the X-Prize. You can see the photos and read the press release and Richard Branson’s speech here.
 
And, Admiral…it is the Enterprise.
 
Isn’t it fun to live in the future?

What Happens After They Ride Off Into the Sunset

January 25th, 2008

I’m here. In Hollywood. In North Hollywood, specifically, but here nonetheless.
With little time and spare energy, I didn’t write in Phoenix and since I’ve arrived, I’ve been all over the place, either with stuff, or people, or just my head trying to wrap itself around it.
BUT! Let’s start from where we left off, shall we?

Small World.

January 21st, 2008

Here in New Mexico, as I gather my things and get ready to head out on the road again, I flip on CNN, to get what I can of my news fix before I head out the door. And what is CNN doing a story on? A local man (that is, to South Jersey) who [...]

Two States and A Thousand Miles Later

January 21st, 2008

I write from a Hampton Inn in Gallup, New Mexico, near the border to Arizona towards the north of the state.

Go!

January 16th, 2008

How does a cross-country trek to a new chapter on one’s life start? Why, in rush hour traffic of course. The first twenty-minutes or so were completely indistinguishable from any random school day from the past year. But soon enough, I was past Full Sail and past my commute for the last time. And as [...]

Ready, Set…

January 15th, 2008

I feel like I should be disappointed that all of my worldly possessions could fit into a 6×7×8 foot box, but I’m not. If anything, I’m disappointed that it took so much space. But regardless, there it sits, in my (rather, Travis’) driveway, waiting for the moving guys to come pick it up and truck [...]

So It Begins

January 12th, 2008

So getting back into the habit of blogging regularly has certainly not been as quick or smooth as I would have liked, though I’d be lying if I said entirely unexpected. I really am badly out of the habit of writing regularly, much to my own frustration.
But here I am, on the first leg of [...]
