Financial Decisions...
PoeticIntensity
Okay... I keep on runing into these people who have learned what I want to learn.
About a year ago, I met a guy named Rick Koerber and he seemed like a normal guy. About 6 months later, I find out he's a freaking multi-millionarie. I also find out that he teaches how he did it, and so I learn about it. It seems really legit...

Drum Corps. 2007

I just got back from a wonderful evening spent with my wife, Shaun, Tiffy, Shane, and Becca. We went to Weber State to see the annual drum core competition.

It also got me to thinking about a lot of things. For some reason lots of normal things...

I was wandering around the net to shake off the daily grind, when I came upon this site .
The poem made me think, and thinking is a pretty good thing. So, in response to his poem, I wrote the poem "To Write". I was suprised at how fast it came, and pretty freely, too. Anyway...
It's always a treat to find good poetry....

To Write...
PoeticIntensity
(poem)
To write...
Feeling as though worthlessness is she who has found me...
The block of feeling sinks deeper into an endless ocean...
of creative decay.
Yes, to write is to live.
But to live defines my weakness
my misunderstanding
my inadequacy
my wretched mind
my life.
nevertheless!
to write...
..is to live...
...and I shall live....

Transcoding subtitles

"What is a motorcycle doing in *this*?", I thought as I continued upward through the winding Spanish Fork canyon. It wasn't so much that a motorcycle was in this particular canyon, but rather in the canyon during one of the 3 most torrential downpours I've seen during my lifetime.

Holy cow, there's some weird crap on the Internet.

Surprisingly... I'm not sure if it's because of my attitude or what, but I believe I got a bit more out of this chapter than I have for the rest of the Isaiah stuff.
I'm not 100% sure what the branch is that comes out of the root of Jesse, but I've been told that is refers to the prophet Joseph Smith (D&C 113).
I also believe that when it s...

Too tired to work.

My poem

(poem)
It's a new day,
And so I must fight.
Fight for my right live!
As time gose on,
I know my suffering will be small.
But why must I stuggle at all?
Time will go on,
And soon I'll be,
Just another scar on your heart.
Am I so alone?
My sadness and pain,
I'll never show.
But will time go on for me?
Can there be light behind my sorrow...
