I have been fascinated by the unusual all my life. One of my very first written works was a school assignment exploring the validity of ESP and paranormal phenomena. Though I was very young at the time, I immediately found myself fascinated by performers like Yuri Gellar and David Copperfield, and these days I'm absolutely blown away by people like Derren Brown. Even today, I want to believe that abilities exist which have no valid scientific explanation. I have been reading Stephen King novels for as long as I can remember, and I'm a sucker for tv shows like "The X Files" and "LOST".

Regressing, or Progressing?
While cruising around MySpace today I took a peek at the featured book, which was Eclipse by Stephanie Meyer. The first thing I noticed was that the “leading man” so to speak was…well…a vampire. Sort…
Just Being Me
In a continued effort to ignore the seemingly-endless (though dwindling!) stream of moving boxes, I have spent quite a bit of today lost in my own thoughts and plans. It’s relaxing in a way, and…
Harmonic Convergence of the Third Kind
One of my very favorite movies of all time is Amadeus, starring Tom Hulce as Mozart. The movie, as well as the play on which it’s based, shattered common misconceptions about Mozart and painted him…
