Pass The Potatoes: April 2009
http://passthepotatoes.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
A blog about self-discovery, politics, and general awesomeness. Sunday, April 26, 2009. It is 1 am. I have returned from hanging out on a friends deck with some other peeps and drinking some wine. I am listening to a song that helped me through a difficult part of my life right now (posted at the end of this) and I have decided to just babble and see where it goes. Haven't done this in a while. Buckle your seat belts. Have you ever been in a place in your life where a single song really helps you through?

Pass The Potatoes: May 2009
http://passthepotatoes.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
A blog about self-discovery, politics, and general awesomeness. Tuesday, May 19, 2009. So Much To Do, So Little Time. Finally, once again I am playing the 'will Ryan get paid in time' game. Three invoices out of six in the ether, will any of them get paid before I leave? I really need to do something about this cycle. It is probably the only real point of stress I have going on right now. Ok, enough with dicking around. Back to work! Links to this post. Thursday, May 14, 2009. Links to this post.

Pass The Potatoes: December 2008
http://passthepotatoes.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
A blog about self-discovery, politics, and general awesomeness. Wednesday, December 31, 2008. This one will be brief. 2008 for me was a rewarding year. I had a great relationship that taught me alot and showed me what a healthy relationship could look like. I learned to sail. I decided to start taking steps to switch careers. And I finally started to let go of some of my past and start to move on. So many possibilities. I just want to learn everything I can about whatever I can. Like a sponge. Maybe not ...

Pass The Potatoes: Adventures in Sailing! - TRYST
http://passthepotatoes.blogspot.com/2010/03/adventures-in-sailing-tryst.html
A blog about self-discovery, politics, and general awesomeness. Tuesday, March 09, 2010. This post went pretty long. The last part of it is the best part if you want to skip around. Originally the trip was going to be a 10 hour day sail from Grasonville, MD (just over the Bay Bridge) to Annapolis and back. It was cold, about 40 degrees, with a north wind blowing around 18 knots or so. We were all bundled up pretty tightly. After a somewhat eventful motoring involving mistaken lights, hard to find markers...

Pass The Potatoes: January 2009
http://passthepotatoes.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
A blog about self-discovery, politics, and general awesomeness. Thursday, January 29, 2009. Is an interesting article on sleep. Some neat stuff in there and some ideas for how to get better sleep. And then there is this. Sleep test. I was a 'rocketing rabbit' when I took it. What works for you? Links to this post. Wednesday, January 28, 2009. Is an interesting personality test. The first three questions are the important one, the 4th one is blah. How did it work for you? Links to this post. Took two hour...

Pass The Potatoes: February 2010
http://passthepotatoes.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
A blog about self-discovery, politics, and general awesomeness. Thursday, February 25, 2010. The last unit in my childhood development class was on sexuality and puberty. It has been bringing up a lot of unresolved issues for me from that time period and this post is going to be used to process them. It is definitely going to be an instance of To Much Information so you should stop reading now. Yeah, I didn't think you would stop. Links to this post. Tuesday, February 23, 2010. To this day, polling from ...

A blog about self-discovery, politics, and general awesomeness. Monday, March 30, 2009. I want me a border collie, damn it. Links to this post. Thursday, March 26, 2009. Someone else coined the phrase. I dish out advice, whether it is good or not is up to debate I suppose. I guess it is part of my ever evolving personal philosophy that I like to spread around because it works for me. Your mileage may vary. Labels get in the way. Know where your shit ends and someone else's begins. How many times have you...

Pass The Potatoes: March 2011
http://passthepotatoes.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
A blog about self-discovery, politics, and general awesomeness. Friday, March 04, 2011. It turns out I have something of an aptitude to it. Either that or my teachers are blowing smoke up my ass. Either way, I have been having fun doing it. My background in music really helps as it allows me to pick out the beat and understand phrasing. Sometimes the phrasing thing is annoying during group classes because everyone else starts and I'm waiting for the beginning of the phrase. Links to this post. I tell you...

Pass The Potatoes: Civil Rights and the Republican Party
http://passthepotatoes.blogspot.com/2010/02/civil-rights-and-republican-party.html
A blog about self-discovery, politics, and general awesomeness. Tuesday, February 23, 2010. Civil Rights and the Republican Party. To this day, polling from the south compared to the rest of the country yields very different results. It really is remarkable. In a nutshell, the Democratic and Republican parties had a realignment that put much of the Republican's support in the south where the majority of it remains today. Votes are listed in Yeas-nays format. The original House version:. The Year in Pop.
