The end of the rainbow is a place we'd all like to go

1. A new hobby
2. Writing
3. Sign my petition

1. I think that I have found a new hobby. Actually you could say that this hobby has found me. I was asked by the General Manager of CB & Potts to be the new trivia host. This hobby accomplishes several things that I have been looking to accomplish. The first of which is that it gives me something to do in my spare time. So in researching trivia questions it gives me a chance to waste some time in this endeavor.

The second of the things that it accomplishes is that hosting trivia gets some extra money in my pocket. Part of this extra income comes from the money that they would be paying me. The other part comes from the money that I can be making by not participating in trivia every Thursday. I am going to estimate that this savings is about $10-$20 per week. This equates to a little less than $1000 per year. In case you didn’t know I am a nerd.

The third thing that this hobby accomplishes is that I have a purpose behind by research. It will give me a chance to actually spend time in a library and not look like a complete nerd. So I’ll see you all in the library from time to time.

2. I have been contemplating this fact. I think that I going to start to write a story. I am first going to strive for a short story. Judging by my previous blog related rambling a short story might turn into an extremely long one. Hell, in grad school I wrote an 84 page paper, when the entire professor said in handing it back was “good”.

Why am I considering it? It gives me something to write about without expressing the doldrums of real life. I imagine that there will be several life inspired situations in this story. Well that’s how people make stories seem more realistic. Now all I need to write my story is a topic of interest to me.

3. At the bottom of this link I have attached a link to a petition to get my father to install a hot tub at our condo in Alaska. This would be a very valuable addition. I need all of the signatures that I can muster so please sign. Thanks!!!! http://www.petitiononline.com/mod_perl/signed.cgi?JEFFHARR
