Creating a Domain

I have decided to create my own domain, PhilosophyofMalcolm.com. Although it will not be up right away it is a site that is basically going to be How-to's, Study habits, Life views, Political views, and anything else I deem worthy of writing articles about. I really need a way to generate some extra passive income and I feel this would be a good avenue to go down and explore because if I can get people to come to my site and find it useful then that to me is more rewarding than money because it is intangible yet useable, which is the beauty of knowledge. I think it is important to see in life what things we can do in order to help others come to find a useful perogative for themselves, and certainly with a site like that I can get started in that direction. Hopefully, something will come about for my work. I will let you know when it happens.

What to do, what to do...

Greetings people, I am back for a post. I just want to rant a little bit about how those of you who post ads on craigslist.com need to respond to them. I have sent out about twenty resumes for a host of different companies and or individuals to review for a possible job opportunity, and yet not one person has emailed me back yet, and I have done this over a spread of about two weeks. My resume is not a bad resume either, I think it is pretty nice actually and I would definitely consider me if I were offered me for a job, but for some magical reason no one seems to want to even respond the the posts that they themselves post looking for people. That is just mind boggling. You want employees? Then respond to the very ad you posted.

Secondly, I think I am going to change the layout of this website so that it fits all resolutions, then I am going to start speaking more on Catholic philosophy, and if some theology gets thrown in there, that will be good too because you can't really seperate the two. Also I am going to add some more things to the menus, that way there will be more content, since I know there is practically nothing on here, so it is somewhat of a boring website.

So that is it for now, I will stay in touch.

Fun, Joy, and Happiness

Well, that is a bit of a stretch, but I must say that I am in desperate need of a job since I was laid off from my I.T. position. There is the possibility that I would be moving to either Naples, FL to return to Ave Maria or to Berkeley, CA to go to the Dominican School of Philosophy and Theology, but the third option is to stay in GA, but I highly doubt I will do that because I am getting somewhat of a cabin fever living at home for so long, so we'll see what happens.

Fortunately I am in a good relationship with my girlfriend, although it is difficult being so far apart, but we have managed to stay together for almost 3 months now, so that is the farthest I've gotten in any relationship, so I am very happy because I love her.

I am currently reading some Dorothy Day, who is a Distributist. Her method of writing is very vivid and not boring, she really is quite imaginative and helps draw you into what she is writing, unlike most writers. I think that proper use of the imagination and stepping away from over abstractification helps the reader to getter a better sense perception of what the writer is trying to convey, so kudos to ol' Dorothy.

I will try and post more in the future.

Schooool and other tasty items.

I am back in school now, Southern Catholic College, and I this blog reminds me of winter, which I like. So, anyway I feel that this will be good although I have to wake up pretty early, but everyone does. It's interesting going back, out of the sem and meeting a girl. Life can be interesting and odd at the same time. A interior drowning pool of temporal goals and thoughts. I guess its saying that I have resurrected a post.

Jobs and Business

So I have been having a lot of trouble finding a job that will stay a job, if you know what I mean. I had an interview at a Catholic Computer company called CrownTech Computers Inc., and everything went really well, but unfortunately, the CEO seems to like to keep putting me off until he has time to train me, which is very frustrating because I have bills that I need to pay. So I am going to wait until May 1st and if I do not have a definite start date by then I am just going to forget it.

A friend of mine from Ave Maria wants to start a Catholic book company with me of obscure rare and hard to find Catholic books, which I think could be extremely productive since I have a little experience with book-binding and typesetting and have researched it a lot. It could be a profitable endeavor if we could get enough exposure and really try to advertise ourselves. I have always wanted to provide good traditional Catholic materials to people, so maybe it will happen. I will keep you posted on new developments as they arise.

Please pray for me because I am seriously struggling financially and spiritually right now with a lot of things. Thanks!

Long time no post...

Well, I haven't exactly been updating my blog, but I am sure only a few of you read it anyway. I am trying to score a job with this Catholic IT company who does networking administration, which is pretty fun stuff. I will post later on when I think of something to say, so stay tuned.

Punk and the Rockness

My sister let me borrow a pretty good white Fender Strat Mexican made, which means its lower grade but still a good guitar, even though I would never buy it. I have been writing a lot of songs lately, but I haven't gotten around to writings any lyrics. I am pretty close to starting a new band I think because one of the guys I work with plays bass and I've known him for a really long time and he is down with the idea. I want to start something along the lines of just plain old new rock, not nu-metal but new rock kinda indy sound, like At the Drive In, Promise Ring, Angels and Airwaves, 30 Seconds to Mars, Quadiliacha. It would be a good mix of hardcore punk, riff rock, and and epic vocals of a sort, which would be an awesome mix. When I say hardcore punk though I don't mean like minor threat or fugazi or the pixies, more like Kid Dynamite, and Lagwagon style.

I am working at this retaurant now, Nine, and I am making pretty good money. It rules. Get some!
