For fun
Want to read some miscellaneous pieces based on a wide variety of topics? Well, then, you've certainly come to the right place! Rants, essays, one-shot stories: they're all here! Hopefully you'll find them as fun to read as they were to write.
- Hey, Remember the Eighties—This was an article I wrote for Shippensburg University's music magazine, Screw U Buddy. Some of the references are a bit dated, but I still find it a touch humorous.
- Till Eulenspiegel Was Here—You don't know who Till Eulenspiegel was? Man, are you ever missing a treat! Read this essay to find out how I fell in love with a 700 year old jester. (This was written for the Belgian Eulenspiegel Kring yearbook, so the language is a little less complex and colloquial than my usual writing. Just thought I'd point that out.)
- Till Eulenspiegel Was Here, Part Two—Now that you've been briefed in Till's adventures, find out more by reading this essay. It's faskinatin', as Popeye would say.
- So, You Want to Go to Århus?—If you've ever considered studying or working in Denmark's second-biggest city, by all means read my travel guide. Otherwise, you'll never know the best place for ramen noodles. (Caveat: this article was written in 1999, so it may be a bit out of date. If you get lost in Aarhus with only a Kroner to your name, don't blame me.)
