This Journey
What a journey. Soon I shall pass the 1000 page view mark, and I couldn’t be more happy. I know many people surpass this mark much faster than I have, I’m still very proud. How could I not be?
Our blog here is definitely a little labor of love, and I’ve had so much fun doing it. With The Ballad of the Emerald Bard up and running on Saturdays, I’ve become even more proud. Just to know people are stopping by and enjoying what they read, and then coming back later for more is a true honor.

(poem) To Live.
When shame is the name of the game
Then how do you tell, what it is they sell?
It always seems as if people’s dreams
Do nothing but oppress instead of impress
This is a sad way to be, because you can never be free
From humanity itself, because there is no elf
Which is sad for me, because I love fantasy
To live in another world, found in books unfurled
But no, there is only this world I know
So the best way to deal, it to simply be real
And simply tell all the haters to go to hell
And live life the best you can, be you woman or man
Live with morals close to your heart....
Because truly Living, is an Art.

(poem) A silly poem about Blogging
Blogging
Its all about the passion
Even if it is
All about fashion
To sit right down
And write an essay
Throw it on the Web
For everyone to read today
Maybe it will inspire
Maybe people will smile
Some hope to make a change
To push people the extra mile
Some are amazing to read
Some are horribly bad
Its public expression at its finest
Nothing could make people more glad
Freedom of Speech
A heck of line
Look up blogs on the Internet
Know that its going fine
Though some people get censored
Some get flamed out
Others rise above
And blog about their cat
Either way it goes
I’m enjoying this experience
To simply write away
And try to make it make sense

Science Fiction Fan
I enjoy science fiction. I really don’t understand why some people can’t. Einstein said that the “true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination.” To me that proclaims that what human’s can dream up, is close to what human’s have achieved. It keeps us looking to a future that might be, and inspiring those who have the knowledge to put it all together.
Even if some of it is escapism, such as John Carter, it still has some significance. The ability to sit back and enjoy someone else’s vision has such interesting artistic merit. Star Trek was a great place to have people think about what the most promising theories now could look like in the future.
