It’s Valentine’s Day – Ughhh

February 14th, 2009  |  by Rusty  |  published in Unreal

Am I alone in my thinking about Valentine’s day?  Am I the only one that can’t stand it?  And I don’t think I am bitter because I am single this year.  It’s just not my favorite “holiday” or what ever it is that you want to call it.  Long lines and no open reservation spots, [...]

KXAN – The Saga Continues

October 9th, 2008  |  by Rusty  |  published in Austin, Television, Unreal

Those of you in the Austin and surrounding areas have more than likely noticed that KXAN and the NBC affiliate are no longer on the air.  Due to disputes between Time Warner Cable and LIN, the company that owns KXAN, Time Warner has pulled the station from their Austin market.  Currently, if you are a [...]

Life Comes at You Fast

July 21st, 2008  |  by Rusty  |  published in Austin, Blessing, Unreal

Saturday night I was in a wreck.  I didn’t see it coming.  I had parked in the huge pakring lot under I-35 near 6th street to meet up with some friends that were leaving Austin for Grad school.  After a fun dinner with friends I headed back to my truck to head home for the [...]

Free Drugs

May 27th, 2008  |  by Rusty  |  published in Unreal

This was taken from Foxnews.com today! Crazy! An unsuspecting passenger who flew through Tokyo’s Narita airport left with $10,000 worth of free marijuana thanks to a forgetful customs officer and a sniffer dog with an unreliable nose. The officer stuffed five ounces of the drug into the side pocket of a randomly selected black suitcase [...]

Mental Breakdown?

August 9th, 2006  |  by Rusty  |  published in Unreal, Work

Is it possible to have a mental breakdown at my age? I often wonder what it might be like to just go insane. I think work has been the most insane that I have ever experienced this past month or so. I love my job, but I have to admit, the thought has crossed my [...]

NASA Pushes Forward

July 3rd, 2006  |  by Rusty  |  published in Politics, Unreal

So I have been following all of the hype on the news the past few days about all the issues that NASA has been having with the upcoming launch. It’s already been rescheduled two times due to weather and recently they found gaps in the foam that prevent the fuel lines for freezing. And even [...]

Exxon Mobil Posts Highest US Corporate Profit Ever at $9.9B

October 27th, 2005  |  by Rusty  |  published in Money, Unreal

Exxon Mobil Corp. (XOM) on Thursday posted a quarterly profit of $9.9 billion, its biggest ever and one of the largest in U.S. corporate history, as it raked in a bonanza from soaring oil and gas prices. Record profits for Big Oil at a time when consumers are paying sky-high prices for gasoline have brought [...]

Why Do They Do It?

September 30th, 2005  |  by Rusty  |  published in Unreal, Work

It’s a wonder that kids these days find that they get their asses kicked at school more than we would care to admit. Back in the day, when I worked as a substitute teacher for the Austin Independent school, I would see kids like the one in the video link below and wonder just how [...]
