Nothing's funny about money, except for the fact that it rhymes with funny. Every day we deal with money, so why not take a moment to try and find out who's handling who; is it the us handling the money, or is the money handling us?
Confessions of a People Watcher, Issue #15: A Fresh Step
There’s a certain amount of woeful ignorance that's to be expected when people get complacent in this world: our parents (yes mom, this means you), bosses (yes boss, this means you, too), teachers (there are way too many of you assholes to even name), and especially us. This makes it even worse when life throws... Continue Reading →
Daemon House
The three followed the tunnel for what felt like days. Their footfalls thumped, but the echoes produced by the obscenely large tunnels were nothing short of monstrous. Ed held the only flashlight, stopping every hundred yards or so to check on the other two. They were his friends. ‘Friends,’ he thought, ‘No, They're more than that... Continue Reading →
Confessions of a People Watcher, Issue #14: Spooky Habits of the Modern People
Directly from the desk of a writer who has no audible voice because his conscious has taken refuge in the corner, silently judging him.

Confession of a People Watcher, Issue #10: Rules of the Road
Hello fellow partisans, those of which participate in the weekly recitation of all things weird in the world of a lowly writer, I bid you adieu.

Confessions of a People Watcher, Issue #9: “Let Me Copy Your Notes, Man!”
Dear readers, If someone asked me to explain what college is like, I’d use two words: exhaustive & rewarding. It’s been quite the week, and with everything else going on, It’s hard to find time to relax and write a little bit. Luckily, I found time, and with the help from a bit of music,...

Confessions of a People Watcher, Issue #8: An Odd Turn of Events
Welcome to America, where the price of milk processed from a cow is higher than gas, people actually care about the milk to gas price ratio, and we have people who wield the infinite wisdom of the internet in the palm of their hand, yet they still don't know how to properly dress, bathe, or...
