Space... the final frontier... these are the voya... wait a second: that doesn't sound entirely right. Space... why it wants to kill us all... and how it plans on doing it? That's more like it Neil Degrasse Tyson once held a seminar on Intelligent Design at the Salk Institute in 2006 where he illustrated, rather hilariously, how intelligent design is actually very unintelligent: point-in-fact, how it was probably better-named "Stupid Design." What he tosses out in general, are a variety of ways that the universe is trying to kill all of us. Because in effect, it is. When you consider that we are specks of dust, living on a speck of dust, among specks of dust, that are among (yet) larger specks of dust in the grand scheme of things, it's actually somewhat baffling to think that we have been capable of surviving as long as we have in this cosmic shooting gallery. But of course, within our little speck of dust we're (generally speaking) fairly safe. For now.

I'm a writer, a published author, and editor for a small independent publishing house. I'm an award winning producer of independent media, and I get to edit books, screenplays, and comics in my day to day. I love working on independent film & games, during my down time, as well as reviewing films while gobbling down milk duds (it's an addiction, I know). I've been called "Geek-Prime" among my peers for all the fandoms I work in, and I wear that title proudly. It's a passion, and an exercise in my growing profession, to get to write about what I love. Which happens to be a little of everything. But mostly film, comics, horror, games, anime, literature, and life. I do write about academic material, like politics, medicine, physics, and mathematics too. But for the most part, I like to keep things down to earth and simple. Follow me on Twitter & Facebook
