The Man Version: Must... keep... writing...
http://themanversion.blogspot.com/2009/11/must-keep-writing.html
Friday, November 6, 2009. Must keep. writing. So I've been awful about posting lately. I feel terrible about it. I am very fond of all six of my regular readers, and I don't want them to abandon me for Phil's blog. Don't do it, Artful Dodger! It will only encourage him! Unfortunately, it's probably going to keep up at least through Thanksgiving, because I find myself wrapped up in NaNoWriMo. If I get to 50,000, it'll be the second longest. I cannot compete with the seminal (ha ha! But 13,000 is respectab...

The Man Version: November 2009
http://themanversion.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 18, 2009. A Week Off for Pop Culture Cred. I recently took a long-awaited mental vacation. I am happy with my standards of quality entertainment, but they are getting tougher to maintain. It's good to relax them once in awhile, because you come back more invigorated. The preceding was a flimsy justification for watching. And reading the latest Dan Brown book. If you have to see. If you need to borrow some science nerds, I recommend my friend Nicole. These are Super Neutrinos.". Scient...

The Man Version: January 2010
http://themanversion.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 19, 2010. G'bye, Blogger. it's not you, it's me. I am moving the blog! I have been cheating on Blogger with WordPress, and have decided it's best to just bring things out in the open. I don't want Blogger to see a suspicious email from WordPress, then chase me down the driveway with a golf club. Anyhow, the new site is up! The old posts have been imported, and I will shortly change the redirection from themanversion.net. Http:/ themanversion.wordpress.com/. See you on the other side!

The Man Version: I need Sigourney Weaver ASAP
http://themanversion.blogspot.com/2009/10/i-need-sigourney-weaver-asap.html
Tuesday, October 13, 2009. I need Sigourney Weaver ASAP. Check out my new face hugger. Looks sort of like a Muppet, doesn't it? A Muppet down whose mouth I stick my nose, and whose eyes I press against my forehead. It's my new CPAP! I talked about CPAPs before. What they did not tell me is how they'll decide at the end of that month whether I get the surgery. It's been a month. Did your like it? No It was like having an air compressor blow-drying my sinuses. Did your snoring stop? So your snoring did.

The Man Version: When does the fabulous weath arrive?
http://themanversion.blogspot.com/2009/12/when-does-fabulous-weath-arrive.html
Tuesday, December 1, 2009. When does the fabulous weath arrive? I remember a time, back before I was a novelist. Some of you may recall. We weren't sure if 2012. Would be the worst thing in the history of the world, or only the worst thing for about a week before New Moon. That's my way of saying I hit my target on NaNoWriMo. 50,045! I highly recommend NaNoWriMo. It was a lot of fun, and a huge rush to finish (in more ways than one - on Thanksgiving I was at 32k. If any of you tried to talk to me...But h...

The Man Version: June 2009
http://themanversion.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 25, 2009. New Transformers Movie: This is Not a Drill. Heh I just realized that "this is not a drill" could be a sleazy Transformer pickup line, if Michael Bay had ever decided to make some of them sexy. Instead he went with offensively, stereotypically ghetto. I jotted down some thoughts during this thing. I would do a proper review, but I am strapped for time and am in no hurry to relive it anyway. So I thought I would just share my notes. Opens w/ dialog. Who are they kidding? 5 Amazing...

The Man Version: A face for radio, and a voice for the written word
http://themanversion.blogspot.com/2009/12/face-for-radio-and-voice-for-written.html
Sunday, December 6, 2009. A face for radio, and a voice for the written word. If you guys aren't listening to the wholly excellent and mostly sodium-free Amateur Scientist Podcast. You should be. I mean, really. What the hell is wrong with you? It now has 15% fewer calls to violent revolution! You should not miss it! Also, Brian Thompson contributes some information, I don't recall what. A breakdown of Heidi Klum's shoes during the most recent Project Runway. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Skepchick...

The Man Version: September 2009
http://themanversion.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 23, 2009. I miss the ol' drought. Well that was fun. The last few days have easily dumped more rain on Atlanta since we were not affected at all by hurricane Katrina in 2004. We don't have any levees to break or anything, so talking about Atlanta flooding to a New Orleansianite is sort of like bitching about the cold to someone in North Dakota. Still what a mess. This is the fancy. The rains have made many locals recall when our Idiot Governor Sonny Perdue prayed for rain. Lord, we b...

The Man Version: A view from the trenches
http://themanversion.blogspot.com/2009/03/view-from-trenches.html
Friday, March 20, 2009. A view from the trenches. Scene: Hospital room, just after waking up from surgery. This is your throat. I know you were expecting to hear from your neck incision. But I had a breathing tube shoved down me for two hours, so you're going to pay. First, I'm going to fill up with saliva. You must swallow now. Excellent. Now sneeze. Things are coming along nicely. Why don't we share a coughing fit? Phlegm is such a hassle, don't you agree? I have a long evening planned. Its not a tumah!
