I’m Red Sox’d Out

Written by: Written by Jason D. Barrett.  Filed under: Uncategorized

I apologize to all you Red Sox fans out there, but I am sick of your team.  I have no ill feelings towards the team or the players on it.  My problem is more with the media and all the hype they keep giving your beloved Sox.  Enough already!  I look forward to the day they fall off the radar and you all go back to whining about not winning.  Enjoy it while it lasts because these kinds of things never last forever.

The Hunted

Written by: Written by Jason D. Barrett.  Filed under: Uncategorized

Have you ever felt what it is like to be hunted?  I remember reading The Most Dangerous Game while going through school and it made me think, but that is about it.  Then I got in to playing paintball and it became much more tangible to feel what it is like to be hunted.  What a rush!  I can see why some people get hooked on the game.  I can also tell you that I have a much deeper appreciation for the men and women in our Armed Forces.

My heart got to pounding.  My mind was as quick as it has ever been.  My vision was incredible.  My hearing was at its best.  I was closer to the ground than the grass itself.  I noticed the tiniest bit of elevation changes.  A tuft of grass all of a sudden becomes “cover”.   A wall of twigs breaks up my silhouette and breaks up the incoming shells.

So have you ever been hunted?

Write It Down or Lose It Forever

I am sure this goes without saying, but if you don’t write down your idea as soon as you have it then you will surely use it and it will be lost forever.

Ask me how I know.

Recommended Read - Arcadia

Written by: Written by Jason D. Barrett.  Filed under: Uncategorized

If you are looking for a good read, then I recommend grabbing a copy of the play Arcadia by Tom Stoppard.  This play contains lively intelligent dialogue, a good story line, an interesting approach, and several other reasons to keep turning the pages.

Good play Tom.  I read it back in college and I just finished reading it again.  I enjoyed it.  Thanks.
