Well, Happy Fall-tivities everyone! We are approaching the treasured “Fall Solstice” (Yes, I am aware that there is a fall equinox which was Sept. 22.) I am referring to the fall solstice, where we will dress up as our best Michael Jackson, Patrick Swayze and other celebrity zombies, or skimpy harlot versions of our favorite childhood cartoon characters. That’s right folks...

Let There Be Pickling
It is well known fact that I am not the sharpest cutlery the kitchen. It took 22 years of my life to figure out how to use the stove and boil something. I hope to one day know how to use a skillet, but one thing at a time please. But I am an idea man. I know how to start something and run with it. I bet you I could PICKLE! Doesn’t seem to hard right? All you need is water, salt, vinegar, a...

Internship (Phase 3)
It’s Spring again! And you know what that means…Summer follows Spring! Hooray for Summer! Spring means planning for Summer. Summer beats Spring like Rock beats Scissor (and that is another entry, another time.) But there’s two things I’ve noticed in the spring air as of late; one, many people are out of work, and two, springtime means many young adults and college students...

In-the-mean-Time Capsules
I’ve always wondered what it might be like to have a time capsule. But honestly, in this fast day and age who has the time or patience to find that 20 to 50 year old box in the cold, hard ground filled with marbles and newspaper clippings? I don’t, that’s who! But the idea still intrigues me immensely. That’s why I propose the idea of weekly time capsules or what I’d...

Cake Versus Pie!
Among the world’s greatest rivalries in History, like Pirates and Ninjas, Coke and Pepsi, USA and USSR,etc., there is a great rivalry that needs no other introduction. Everyone knows about the Cold War, but what about the “Warm War” also known as the Dessert War. I speak about cake and pie. Cake verses Pie! When the dinner tables become divided, on the dawn of dessert, When the...

25 Years
Today is my birthday. It is a large birthday for me; 25 years old (or young.) A third of my life is probably over. I look forward the great adventures, and exploits I will have in the future, but before I become that weathered and aged man with the eye patch, I wish to share with you the Legendary story of my life live so far in this quarter of a century. I now present to you…. Twenty Five...

Halloween: My Thoughts on the Matter.
Werewolves, put away those sherpened claws and give your rival vampires a heart felt hug. Vampires, embrace your enemy Werewolf; don’t bite neck but kiss his cheek. For it is Halloween, and it’s time to carve that pumkin and fill it with Dots and Circus peanuts for all the visiting children.
Ladies, let’s not whore it up too much this year, ok? I’m pretty sure a nurse...
OMG Ghosts!
OMG! So I’m sitting here, outside on my deck, enjoying the beautiful October ni, and I decided to give a some photographical progress of my diabolical beard on my Mac, in artic Sepia and I get THESE!
@#$%@#$%@#!
So this ain’t no “real” blog entry. I’m just letting you know what might happen when you take a picture of yourself on a Mac in Sepia. Take heed. Story...

The Corner (Phase 2)
So there’s this shady vacant building on the corner my street at East Linden and Braddock, across from the Yate’s Auto Parts (most expensive gas on the planet) and around the corner from the “world’s sketchiest 7-11” (it’s the crossroads of all Alexandria’s social classes where they buy their Black&Mild’s, Slurpies, under priced Chiken Hog Dogs,...

Pictures of the Past from the Future?
The other night I had the most peculiar thing happen to me. I woke up to the sound of a strange loud clap from outside the Crow’s Nest. As I approached the door of the deck, it immediately swung open where a man to my equal stood before me. This is what was said:
“Michael! You have to let me in! There isn’t much time!” “Dad?!?” “No, I’m not the...

Again, it was fourth grade in Mrs. Shandler’s class. this time it was Cereal Box designing! “Great! Let’s see what kid of cracked out malice on paper the Sanders kid can crank out.” I do not recall if this was before or after the...

The Tower (phase 1)
Many of you have wondered many things about me. Some of you are wondering how or where does this man come up with such things? And then further along, in your queries, you might be wondering where are the headquarters of such a intriguing man? Where does this man sleep? Does he sleep? Where is he when he’s not outside waging wars on tornadoes and wrestling wild dogs? Well, my folk, I’m...

The Problem with Cheese
Why must humans consume rotten milk? There’s a Cheese & Wine store down the street from my house. It smells like the insides of a dead baby calf filled with vinegar. All the world’s with problems go back to cheese! If cows only knew that once we have slaughtered them, ground them up, cooked them, we then put a thin solid layer of what they feed their young on top of there dead...

Hello, my old friend. It has been a long month now, since my last entry. There was a Writer’s Strike in The Mike Sanders Creative Thoughts Emporium, P.O. Box My Brain. I had realized that it would take some sort of time warp to bring back those sweet creative juices that flow so well from my head. It was just over a week ago that I had found some interesting school projects from my fourth...

The Future?
Why the crap has the “future” that we were so very excited about, not happened yet? I mean the future that we were supposed to look forward to when we were kids? I’m talking about Blade Runner and Back to the Future II depictions of the future! Flying cars, and hoverboards! WHERE IS MY HOVERBOARD?! It’s time to get to work people! Back to The Future II’s future takes...
Fortify My Ride!
I hate traffic. Especially my during my commute. DC traffic is the worst. I have to make a giant question-mark-shaped route just to be at work in less than a hour. I spend around $50 a week to fill up my gluttonous Jeep. Everyday it’s the same similar battle; Being stuck behind that fat cow on her phone in her PT Cruiser, who won’t merge. “Why is this Lexus tailing me at 80 in...
The Road to Mustache-Land
There comes a time in a man’s life when he must commit to take the magical steps of growing out the majesty that resides between the upper lip and the nostril cavities. I am referring to the mustache. I speak of my mustacheal awaking. There are a few roads of facial hair realization (preach!) that a man must travel to reach Facial Hair Nation (preach it!) Sounds weird right? Don’t...

The Anatomy of a Dragon is a Metal Band
This post is best read while listening to one of the following bands; Anthrax, Dragonforce, Iron Maiden, Unearth, Darkest Hour etc. Or if you don’t listen to Metal, then you might better understand what you’re missing, or even, what to stay away from. I have discovered that Metal, or a lot of other fast and hard bands are great similes for the Dragon! Each and every part of the band...
Tornadoes, My Nemeses
Several weeks ago, one early Sunday morning, I awoke to a loud single sake of the roof (My room is third story loft. Pretty sweet, I know…). To my surprise, the sky was glooming in through the windows, a neon yellowy green. “Oh freak yes!” I thought to myself as I jumped up and turned my music onto the ominous anthem of the Scorpions, “Here I am, rock you like a...
Cool/Uncool
Here’s a little theory I’ve been developing for a while. It all started less than 2 years ago with the help from a friend or two. It’s a work progress… Cool/Uncool Identity Theory In everyone’s own perspective, everything in the known universe can be defined and broken down into two categories. Cool and Uncool. They can be developed and processed into a series of...

Staring Michael Jebedilloh Sanders. in “There Will Be Blog” Rated R for Strong Grizzly Mysticism. So this is it. I have started a blog! Instead of trying to think of more things to post right now, I will give my...
