Bitter Ben’s Book’s for Bitter Beginners

I work with a bunch of babies all day.  Children.  Whiny Brats.  They cry all day, and need to be fed and given attention all the time.  Any time they need something they ring and I'm supposed to answer.  This makes me fully qualified to write bitter things about them.  Along with being a bunch … Continue reading Bitter Ben’s Book’s for Bitter Beginners

Lost in Space…Universal Studios Space Edition

Some people think space is the final frontier, I say that is hooey.  I've been there and there wasn't much to discover.  There was some stars and some planets and some rocks and some moons and some suns and some weird looking people.  Not so much weird green people with almond shaped eyes, but more … Continue reading Lost in Space…Universal Studios Space Edition

Lost in the Woods and other Bitter Posts: The Epcot Version

The forest is a place full of mystery, wonder and trees.  Lots and lots of trees.  Forests would be awesome if it wasn't for all the trees.  If you haven't noticed, especially at this time of year, trees are kind of jerks.  They litter constantly, they are always swaying and scratching and making spooky noises … Continue reading Lost in the Woods and other Bitter Posts: The Epcot Version

Coming up Short Friday Giftures

Though I am tall(er than most ants), this week was short, because I took Monday and Tuesday off not only from work but also from blogging.  The thing about short weeks is that they make the days you actually work last even longer.  Every hour is so magnified that each second lasts an hour, every hour lasts a day … Continue reading Coming up Short Friday Giftures

The Bitter Beard Battle of Movember

I have always had an issue with authority.  I don't like people telling me what to do.  I know, shocker right?

The Bitter Battle for Control (and how everything can be a weapon)

  I'm a longtime fan of action movies. Some people like action movies for the explosions or the tension, or the unbelievability of it all.  While those are all good things, especially the unbelievability of them, it's the individual fight scenes between two fairly even opponents that fascinates me.  That is what most action movies seem to … Continue reading The Bitter Battle for Control (and how everything can be a weapon)
