New Job, New School, New Week

So, its been a few weeks; I knew this web-logging would not last entirely long without a break. Oh well, to bad so sad.

I got a new job at Canyon Springs High School in North Las Vegas. I am teaching three government courses, two Street Law courses and an American Politics course. Two of the course are honors classes, which is a new thing for me. I have taught government before but that was during Student teaching. Its been a stressful start of the year with three new preps for the school year but I have been handling it pretty well.

I am not sure what else to write for now. So talk to you all later.

Star Wars.com

Greetings fellow bloggers and readers,

Ok, this has been going on for a few years now but its starting to get worse. The official Star Wars website (Http://www.starwars.com) has been getting to be more and more exclusive material over the last few years. It seems that most things on the website now are only open to "fan club" members. No more reading blogs for free. No more watching cool little clips, articles or other fun stuff. I remember when the website was entirely free.

Maybe I am just being a baby because I don't want to plop down $30+ to get access to material which in all honesty is not that great. Maybe its because I refuse to additionally fund that money whore George Lucas. I mean the guy releases a new set of DVDs each year to continually rape the wallets of Star Wars fans across the world. First it was the Original Trilogy Box Set that came out a few years ago with the additional raping of our childhood memories by adding additional unnecessary material. Then the next year he releases the original cuts of the Original trilogy. I refused to buy any Star Wars DVDs until he releases his ultimate set and I know he will. I will be all six episodes with tons of extra stuff not on the other DVDs, plus the original and altered versions of the original trilogy. So I am not feeding that whore George Lucas.

Anyway that is my tirade for now. I intended for my post today to be about the title of my blog but I just had to get this off my chest.

LFG & LICD

Over the last few years I have come to know the product of one ambitious young many very well. His name is Rayan Sohmer. He is the talented writer behind two web comics that I just love and enjoy on a daily basis.

The first is Least I Could Do (http://www.leasticoulddo.com), which is a story about a Sex fiend 25 year old by the name of Rayne Summers. His main attribute is the god complex he has with himself and the fact that he claims to have been with 1,000+ women. This comic spans back to 2003 and the quality and hilarity of the stories has increased with every year. It is also about his friends and the interesting hijinks they get themselves into. If you have a few spare hours check it out. I would start back at the beginning so you can really see what this guy and his friends are all about. Granted the art work is not the best, but it get really good when Lars Desouza comes on board.

The second is barely a year old already and is called Looking for Group (http://www.lfgcomic.com), which is a comic take on the world of Online Role-Playing games, again in a slightly humorous fashion. This comic seems to be getting big and fast. They are planning on making it available to the general public for consumption at your local comic book stores but only if you let the stores know your interested. Here is how you can do that

1) Call up local comic store. You can find that by clicking this link: http://www.lfgcomic.com/locator/
2) Ask them purchase this comic, with the information listed below:

Looking For Group
By Ryan Sohmer & Lar deSouza
As Seen on Page 245 of the August Issue of Previews
Item # AUG073444

Also they are starting on making a full length movie on this comic as well. Embedded below is a four minute preview that explains one of the characters pretty darn well. Enjoy.



Anyway that will be the end of my post for today. Just thought I would get that information out for you. Enjoy and have a nice day.

Pounding the Pavement

Greetings,

I just spent the last four hours pounding the pavement in Las Vegas looking for a job. Granted I am not done yet. Most of today was just seeing what places were looking for workers. I went to twenty different places and found out what I was looking for in terms of how and where to apply. Many of the places only do online applications now, which is good, since most of my employment information is digital to begin with.

There were a few places that seemed the most likely for me to accept. Target is looking for storeroom workers on almost all shifts but the late night shift. Office Max manager seemed like he was looking for someone. Lastly Kohls is still looking for people. Those I believe are my best options for full time work. I just hope something comes through with teaching in the next few weeks. Who knows.

Seen a couple of posts in the past few weeks for parts in theatre productions here in Las Vegas, where they did not have people cast for the parts yet. Considered auditioning for some of them but decided against it. I have an audition later this week for Miss Julie at CSN with TJ Larsen as the director (he directed Bent) and Katie (my gf) as Stage Manager. ANyway we will see how that goes.

My first posting

Hello readers,

I can't imagine I will have very many people reading this for a couple of weeks, but I will post anyway. This is my first foray into the world of blogging. I spend a large amount of time online anyway I might as well post comments on things going on in my life. I will not bore you with details of me right now but I will update my situation.

As of right now, I am still not in possession of a job for the new school year and it is freaking me out. I have been told by plenty of teachers in the school district that I will probably be contacted by them in the coming weeks for new positions, but I don't like not having a job. Tomorrow, or today actually, I will be going around getting job applications for regular jobs in case this teaching thing does not pan out in the next few weeks. Anyway we will see.

You will probably see Postings of my star wars prequel rewrite up here from time to time as well. I hope you enjoy. Have a nice day.
