What to do when your friends help you move

Sunday, August 3rd, 2008

So, I recently helped a friend move, and I’ve had a lot of experience over the past several years both helping people move, and being helped move, so I thought I’d write a couple tips about best practices for the person being moved.
First off, if the friend I helped move is reading this, don’t take [...]

Soundtrack of my Life

Monday, July 7th, 2008

So, I got this idea from a Facebook note a friend of mine wrote. Here’s how it works:

Put your MP3 player or ipod on shuffle.
For each question, press the next button to get your answer.
YOU MUST WRITE THAT SONG NAME DOWN NO MATTER HOW SILLY IT SOUNDS.
If you want, you may write the movie/album/artist

If someone [...]

Mario en noir

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

I recently had a part in a short film written and directed by my good friend, Arthur Kendrick. The film is titled “The Plumber and the Princess.” If you’ve ever played Mario Brothers, you already know the basic plotline of the film. This is not, however, simply a short version of the game. This is [...]

My birthday

Saturday, March 29th, 2008

Yesterday was my birthday, and boy, was it a great one. Around 6am, there was some noise right outside my room. It was just enough to not actually wake me up, but enough that I was able to hear what’s happening, and the sounds in the real world would meld with the sounds in my [...]

My dream girls

Saturday, February 9th, 2008

So, the other night I had a pretty weird dream, and I’ve been thinking of it since. In the dream I was working on some kind of project with five girls. I don’t really remember what it was we were doing, and it’s not particularly important anyway. These five girls are all friends of mine [...]

Dancing queen

Saturday, November 17th, 2007

Thursday afternoon, I was in a class at the Institute. The class was “The Gospel and the Productive Life,” taught by Bishop Simmons. The lesson was mainly about The Word of Wisdom, but one of the quotes that was read mentioned the benefits of wholeseome recreation as well. Bishop Simmons told us that the root [...]

Tom’s Super-Cool Wright Webpage

Monday, October 1st, 2007

My friend Tom recently started a new website: Tom’s Super-Cool Wright Webpage. It’s hosted on the server of my other friend, Abinadi. Tom thought he must be incredibly clever because he issued a challenge to me to find his web page, if I could. Of course, he didn’t tell me the name of the website, [...]

Joe Stryker Pilot

Monday, September 24th, 2007

I should probably keep a lid on this until it’s ready, but I can’t. I’m too excited.
On Saturday, we filmed the pilot episode for our new webshow: Joe Stryker.
Joe Stryker is an action hero of the old school. Imagine taking Chuck Norris, Knight Rider, the A-Team, and McGyver, putting them all in a blender, adding [...]

Motorcycle Experiences

Sunday, September 16th, 2007

On Friday, I was giving a ride home to my friend, Tina. I never let anyone ride my bike (including myself), without a helmet, so she was wearing my extra one, which, after I dropped her off, I strapped to the back of my bike. I pulled out of her apartment complex on Riverside Dr, [...]
