The Raging Tech on “Nom”
For those of you not familiar with the term “Nom” – it basically is an onomatopoeia (a word that represents a sound) to describe the noise one might make when scarfing down a delicious treat. For example: “Hey Jimmy, this cupcake is delicious… NOM NOM NOM NOM.” The “Nom” also carries with it a connotation…
So Now Do I Get Super Powers?
It hit me this morning – I have had recurring nightmares for the last year or so about my dad dying suddenly, and then getting a phone call from my mom and having to come home, etc. It was a terrifying nightmare, and I’d wake up feeling like a bad omen was over me. I…
Father’s Day
In Loving Memory of Terry Howard Myers June 7th, 1950 – June 8th, 2008 Happy Father’s Day, Dad.
Man in the Box
OK… I know I’ve been accused of having a morbid sense of curiosity, and maybe it’s not right to talk about some things, but you know what? It’s my father. If it helps me grieve, then I can write whatever I want. That being said, Dad’s “cremains” arrived today. That’s the funeral home guy’s word,…
Family Night Tonight
The family night for my dad’s passing is tonight. We’re having “Family Night” in lieu of a viewing, since Dad’s being cremated. We are borrowing an urn, since Dad is being shipped off to the crematory in a city near the beach and won’t be back until Thursday. We were in the funeral home again…

Good News!
God is so good. If you don’t believe in prayers or healing, then believe at least that my God is in control of things. He still would be good, and still would be in control of things even if I didn’t have good news to share. But I do have good news to share! I…
I Try to Find the Humor in Everything
My dad has been in off-and-on declining physical health since I was a little kid. He dealt with depression and some other things when I was in middle school. Around sophomore year of high school, he got into a car accident and had to go to the hospital. While he was there they gave him…
