Long time no see or... None like it dull

I haven't written anything in a while because I have been performing other feats of amazement.

Kindle 3G Wireless Reading Device, Free 3G + Wi-Fi, 6" Display, Graphite, 3G Works Globally - Latest Generation
Isn't it awesome?
The most amazing of which I suppose would be my purchase of the third generation Kindle from Amazon. I've been spending any extra time I have the past week using this little wonder and have absolutely no complaints thus far.

I'm nearly finished reading Stardust which I originally got for the Kindle app on my MyTouch but reading a book one paragraph at a time quickly became cumbersome. So as soon as I heard there was going to be a better, smaller, cheaper Kindle I pre-ordered that mofo like nobody's business.

If you're interested in an awesome digital reader I highly recommend getting it. Best of all it's only $189 for the 3G model.

Okay, contractual obligation to Amazon complete let's move on now.

The other piece of awesomeness I've been involved in is my latest attempt at writing a piece of literature. It is tentatively titled Dream Walker and is about a young man named Daniel who has the ability to wander through dreams. He meets a girl along his travels and inadvertently becomes entangled in the war between nightmares and the dream lords.

My goal is to have the first draft completed by Christmas so wish me luck.

That being said, I haven't been writing any short stories or articles lately. I'm trying to put all of my creative focus on this project in the mean time.

In Shirtless news... Our hero has learned that he does not need keys to open doors. All it takes is brute force and the fury of a thousand shirtless gods
Zeus doesn't wear no stinking shirts
Shirtless SMASH!



















I've been thinking of moving over the Shirtless stories to this blog once I learned that Blogger lets you catalog your blog quite easily. Look forward to that coming soon and when I do start writing again Shirtless will return as well. 

Finally the last big update in my life is my dive into the world of SCUBA (Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus). I've been taking lessons at Bob's Dive Shop and it looks like I will be able to take my certification dive the first weekend of November. 

If you've ever thought about getting into scuba I recommend going through them. Ed has been diving since the 70's and is just an awesome dude to be around and learn from.

For all of my friends who are divers I would like to get together with you so I'm not diving on my own. I'd like to have at least one buddy to go diving with. 

Into the great beyond
That's about it on my end. As you can see I've been quite busy lately. I promise I will keep you updated on my progress on Dream Walker. Until later my friends.
