I had many a fun time at floyds bar thirst parlor* in springfield, il during my grad school days. and i made a visit there over the weekend while i was in town for a wedding. ordered the most effective drink known to man — a floyds long island ice tea.

it only takes a few sips and you’re pretty much drunk.

I have spent a good portion of the last seven years of my life of my life trying to fill the pages of newspapers. What started as a job to get pizza money at $12 an article at the Western Illinois University Western Courier in late Sept. 200 (ish), has turned into an obsession. 

I’ve moved to galesburg, il; springfield, il; davenport, iowa; pierre, s.d.; oshkosh, wis.; and now woodstock, il to pursue this crazy passion. 

in case you were wondering i still love it. 

i just hope the industry doesn’t die before i do.
