About Me

A native Sacramentan, I have lived in the area almost all of my life, except for a brief detour up north in the towns of Gerber and Corning. I spend most of my time these days building and managing web assets for a local skin care company. When not programming, I enjoy building things in my garage wood shop, hanging out with my wife and three crazy kids, and writing the occasional screenplay for my indie production company. While a programmer by trade, I am a writer at heart and am working towards turning my love of screenwriting into an exciting new career.

The Zombies Are Here

There is a new independent production company in town, Zombie House Pictures. Founded by Sacramentans Geoff Foley, Josh Pierson, and Lodi native Tom Presler, ZHP came together through a mutual love of horror movies and all things zombie. Presler and Foley are also the co-founders of the non-profit organization, the Zombie Club, based in Lodi, California. The Zombie Club focuses on community outreach, charity fundraising, and yeah, all things zombie. Zombie House Pictures is the film production arm of the Zombie Club and they're currently in production on a new web series called Diary of a Dead Man that has been shooting here in Sacramento since the beginning of September.

Looking to 2012

I think the time has come for the Libertarian Party to really take to the road showing the principles that make it the party for the future. GOP leaders are now joining the opposition to the 2nd round of bailouts, mostly fueled by the disaster of the first round with the major banks using the money for expansion rather than what it was approved for: helping ease the mortgage and credit crisis. Where were they when the money was being doled out? Where was the GOP when it was clearly evident that the same greed that brought this mess upon us was now chasing its own tail at a fevered pace? As a Libertarian, I don't believe in the bailout to begin with.  Corporate welfare should not be a fun

I'll submit our locally-based web series Diary of a Dead Man. This sounds like a great concept.

I think we've met, Judy. I am also a friend of Paul and Shannon and I help Shannon with the Vampire Ball as a set designer.

Thank you Isaac. I didn't think much of making locally-focused, more of an op-ed kind of piece. I might look at adding some local connection to it and re-posting it at some point.

Conversation about: Drive 55 and thrive, apologies to KP

I don't buy into the idea that driving 55 actually saves fuel over driving at higher speeds. I have made a few trips to and from LA and traveling down I-5 I routinely drive anywhere between 75 - 95 and my own personal experience is that aside from making the non-stop trip in four hours forty-five minutes, I don't have to stop for gas. The two times I made it a point to gauge the fuel consumption at the higher speeds, one tank of gas was sufficient to make the drive from Elk Grove to downtown Hollywood, 368 miles. One time was in my 1993 Buick Regal V6 with a 16 gallon tank and the other time was in my 1997 VW Jetta four cylinder, five speed manual with a 14 gallon tank. The Jetta was the best as I didn't have to refuel until the next day. The Regal made it but I had to get gas as soon as I got off the freeway at Calvine Rd/99. For the speed... from Fresno until the Grapevine on I-5 people tend to not pay much attention to the posted 75 limit. I have been going 80 - 85 on that stretch and had people flash me to get out of the fast lane. It is an insane stretch of road when it comes to speed. Highway 80 from Sacramento to the Bay Area can rival it for sure.
