Yet another distraction

By On May 17, 2011 · In As I Am Now, Cremains


Could it be that the tumblr format is just so damn easy in comparison to WordPress? Lately I’ve felt like the creative equivalent of some dude who hasn’t left his chair for two days, bathed in the glow of a video game, scratching his back with a repurposed spaghetti spoon and eating Kozy Shack pudding with his hands.

Whatever that means. Oh, yes: Tumblr is easier.

So, just to dilute my brand a little more, I’ve created a new tumblr, Lovely Jetsam. It’s an assortment of old items I’ve found on online auction sites, things I would probably buy if I had unlimited funds and space. Go check it out. Follow me, if you must.

Shawna Forde: Guilty

By On February 14, 2011 · In Cremains

From the Arizona Daily Star:

A Pima County jury convicted Shawna Forde today of two counts of first-degree murder in the May 30, 2009 deaths of Arivaca residents Raul Junior Flores and his 9-year-old daughter, Brisenia.

The jury also convicted Forde of attempted first-degree murder in the shooting of Flores’ wife, Gina Gonzalez, as well as related aggravated assault and robbery counts.

Gonzlez started crying as soon as the first guilty verdict, the killing of her daughter, was read just before noon in a packed courtroom at Pima County Superior Court.

The jury deliberated for seven hours over two days. Jurors will now be asked if the death penalty ought to be considered.

Seven hour deliberation, with a verdict that took ten minutes to read. More info here.

Pardon the mess

I’m dicking around with the design. While I practice my CSS legerdemain, things may or may not be borked. In the meantime, please visit the Too Sweet to Die tumblr, where the ease of posting suits my unambitious MO.

In brief

By On January 14, 2011 · In Cremains

I broke down and have begun using the tumblr I’ve been squatting on for a year: Too Sweet to Die: The Runoff. For the more pithy stuff. I’ll continue to post the long-form shit here.

Why? I’m lazy.
