Quickly here. I wrote an overview of No-Shave November last night. I'm thinking about doing it. Not that I have much of a beard. OK, gotta go.

Wrote even more hubs, one on Monumento a la Revolucion and one on diarrhea. Yeah, I know. I also wrote a product review for my GPS, but it got rejected because I didn't cite my sources...kind of ridiculous as I didn't have any quotes. I redid it and resubmitted it, hopefully it will get accepted this time. I was lined up to start writing reviews and opinions on telenovelas with my wife, I was having correspondence with a REAL person who worked for Yahoo!, and the show we were going to write about suddenly had it's season finale. What crap.

Lego Man experiment

I decided to write a hub on the Giant Lego Man which was found on a Florida beach. His story went viral, and though it will be cooled down by the time my hub gets indexed on Google, I want to see how many views it pulls in. I tried to write the story in an "Evergreen" manner, though this kind of thing will be out of the public interest pretty soon, so who knows.
Yummy looking, huh? I stole this recipe for squash blossom quesadillas from my in-laws while in Mexico, and of course made a hub out of it. Then I drank some beer. That's about all I have to say about that.

Lemon in a window, Lemon Tree Song


Had a lemony day today. Wrote a hub on The Lemon Tree song as an experiment to test the validity of the Google Adwords tool. We'll see.  I also wrote a short story based on a writing exercise about the main character looking at a lemon in a window sill called "Lemon in a Window". I need to find better things to do with my time.

Passport

I remembered how lost and angry I felt when I went through the process of getting a US passport before my trip and decided to write a guide for the other unfortunate souls who want or need to cross one of invisible lines surrounding us, aka leave the country.

Mexico

I'm baaaaaaack! Been in MEXICO for the last 5 weeks, came back at night and went right back to work the next day. I would say sorry for the delay, but nobody is reading this. Wrote a poem for the hell of it. Here is the link if you are interested. Mexico was great by the way. I recommend learning Spanish and visiting. I'm not going to bother trying to give an account of my trip as it would take all day just to write the highlights, so just visit there yourself if you get the chance.
