reenactorNet

This would be the blog of one Marshall J. Wise or "Marsh" to my friends -- it's "Marshall" to the company or others of that ilk. Anywho, this be just my thoughts and bloviations on life, reenacting, the world and other thoughtless provoking crap. Yes, I am a reenactor, yes, I own reenactor.Net... Remember: work to live, not live to work.

*(and yes, look up the word bloviate on google)

Hmmm, "about me" huh? It's kind of boring. I'm a truck driver hauling U.S. Mail for a Postal Contractor (I was a manager for them, but it became a misery-fest and I felt (and still do) that I was being taken advantage of... at least NOW I have time off). Reenacting Lessee, I am into reenacting... WWI, WWII and Roman. Doing the first two, I portray a German (no, I don't care one bit if you're offended), in the last, I do a 1st Century Roman impression. I find the Roman Empire fascinating. r.Net I have owned reenactor.Net (the biggest reenactor website on the planet) since 1998 and am constantly trying to make it better (for that, I really need 37 hour days). One good thing about r.Net is it allows me to meet and know a lot of really great and nice people who's knowledge just leaves me floored. How I think... Do you really care about how I think? I'm kind of a dork... If you read the blog, you'll see how I think (or don't think, if you listen to a lot of people).

The world turns, but stays still

Meaning nothing seems to change. Hey, Google paid me! Biggest check so far!! They wired it on the 23rd and of COURSE, my bank cleared it today at 12 noon-ish. Ack! Anyway, the wifial unit decided she needed milk and ice (don't ask...), so off we went to town. I took out $100. at good ole Sheetz and put $50. in the tank... it didn't quite fill it >:-(

Next, was Taco Bell -- I like their fresco crunchy tacos and it's got the least carbs and sugar so woohoo. This was then followed by the obligatory Starbucks. Next, to Rita's for some custard... (okay, I'm addicted to Rita's!!). Next on the Wee trip of "fun" was to get her nails "filled" something I don't know much about, but if she loses one, it will cost a bunch to redo them... okay, whatever. Last, Giant for ice and milk. I kept Pacha company in the car the whole time... was nice today, a little warmish, but still not jungle hot yet. Back home, an argument of epic proportions was had, to the enjoyment of all. Anyway, them's the facts and dat's how a'hm is a gonna report 'em.

In the Meantime...
WWII is done and Rob and Harry have begun updating. :-) Also, Civil War is mostly done, only needing a navigation kludge to weave it together until I can get a real one figured out. Next is Ancient Periods for Kim, as I know he is chompin' at the bit to get at it. Things are looking up. I wish Google was spitting out more $$, but it's okay. I had signed up on some of the google boards and now get spam form some of these guys. Yeah, it'd be neato-keen to get $500.+ a day from my ads, but I doubt it'll happen -- what I see these guys doing looks like scammery. Don't really wanna lose my account due to that.

Back to the Mines
Anyway, my "weekend" is over. Gott sei Dank that it was a holiday or I'd a only had one day off. That's kinda sucky when it happens -- 'tis like working 6 days straight -- it kills my back and there's not enough time off to undo the damage.
