The Sagacious Geek: Propogating the Industry I Love
http://nuclearconvoy.blogspot.com/2010/08/propogating-industry-i-love.html
Saturday, August 7, 2010. Propogating the Industry I Love. Today I experienced something that made me feel better about my geekdom than ever before: I got to help someone bring comics to children. It is a simple but meaningful story, and I'd like to share it with you. This morning I got a call from Oscar, one of the organizers of the Montreal Comic-Con. I seriously didn't even know this book EXISTED until today). T and Spider-Man: Back in Black. Following that (I really wanted to use Pursuant. And would ...

The Sagacious Geek: Desperation and Strangers
http://nuclearconvoy.blogspot.com/2011/05/desperation-and-strangers.html
Sunday, May 15, 2011. Everyone's had that moment where they go up to a complete stranger and ask them a question. It's always at least mildly awkward, for a moment, on someone's part as you approach them, but most often the question is benign. "When's the bus? What time is it? Or "Do you have a smoke? Can I ask for your opinion? No, no. Go ahead." I said, uncertain of where things were going. She communicated to me a story of a man she had met, a man who she had been working out with and had ...It made m...

The Sagacious Geek: Technical Difficulties
http://nuclearconvoy.blogspot.com/2010/08/technical-difficulties.html
Friday, August 20, 2010. Okay, so, this week I finally managed to get ahold of my friend's external harddrive to try and fix my computer, but the problem is that while transfering files my computer slows down to a snail's pace. Combine that with a stressful week at work and with inter-personal relations and you get me missing my update dates. Wish me luck fixing my poor busted laptop! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Sagacious Geek: March 2015
http://nuclearconvoy.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Saturday, March 21, 2015. Originally I had intended to post this, in an earlier form, in the Summer of 2014. A lot of things have changed for me since then: I've moved from Montreal to Toronto, I sent out my first pitch for my comic Gunmetal Frontier. And am working on further submissions. I have started selling my prose fiction on Amazon. I have left and started multiple jobs, and I, in general, have been busy working to advance my life and my creative works. How to make money off of your dreams.

The Sagacious Geek: June 2009
http://nuclearconvoy.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 30, 2009. Savage Dragon #148: A Review. Erik Larsen and his Savage Dragon have been around for quite a while, and Larsen has put his green skinned fin-head through some crazy stuff. Me, I wouldn't really know. I missed most of it. But Wikipedia. Certainly has some stories to tell! In the early and mid nineties I was a deprived Image. But they were few and far between. Would be a brand new and numbered issue of Savage Dragon. I immediately set about to get it. The issue itself is designed as...

The Sagacious Geek: September 2010
http://nuclearconvoy.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 3, 2010. Travel Log: Shady Business down Vancouver Way. I just got propositioned by a 2$ Hooker! I, quite honestly, thought that the 2$ Hooker was a joke, something we throw around as a sleazy comparison. But no, life has thrown another hooker in my path and once again made me happy for my position in life. I wonder when I'll meet my next hooker? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Travel Log: Shady Business down Vancouver Way. And yet another attempt. LOL.
