Usually, I try not to write about the same thing two days in a row. This isn’t my fault though. If the Occupy the Media people would just shut up, I could move on peacefully. Instead, they are talking about maybe issuing demands. Really? Demands? Who do they think they are? What right do they…

It seems some jokes have a shelf life. Apparently, people are done laughing at the Occupy (Camp) Wherever movement.

It’s time to start my entry for the National Novel Writing Month challenge. It’s a really simple idea. Write a fifty thousand word novel in November. Sure it’s only thirty days, but at least they don’t hold it in February. What this means for Brain Bits To Go is pretty simple. My posts may be…
