Big Bang Boom Baby July 31st, 2000 @ 2:09 pm PDT
It’s times like this … when I’m sitting here and the world outside goes from bright and sunny to dark as night in an instant … when a terrible torrential Tampa tunderstorm erupts out of nowhere … when the lightning smacks so close that the sound and the fury are simultaneous … when I can […]
Being sick sucks July 31st, 2000 @ 8:46 am PDT
Being sick sucks. Being home from work because you’re sick sucks. Being home from work when you are now getting paid by the hour sucks. Being home sick when you are getting paid by the hour and you are paying a plumber by the hour to fix your leaking fridge sucks. Being home sick when […]
Heaven & Hot Rods July 28th, 2000 @ 7:54 am PDT
The guys from Burdine’s just delivered the couch and took away the chair. Doug, the thorough home inspector, will be here in a few hours to make sure the contractors fixed everything they were supposed to fix. I am going to take the digital cable box to Time-Warner, see if I can find a cell […]
Two Walking Stories July 20th, 2000 @ 10:13 pm PDT
As I walked out of the HSN Cafeteria the other day, I was balancing several of those little soufflé cups filled with mustard, ketchup, and mayo on top of my plastic-boxed hamburger. There were two thirty-something women walking in front of me and they were going v e r y s l o w l […]
Biblical Rain July 15th, 2000 @ 3:57 pm PDT
Today it has rained. Rain. Lots of rain. Biblical rain. Tampa, Fl? Very wet. Just thought you’d like to know. I slept. Lots of sleep. Biblical sleep. David V. Gagne? Very well rested.

Christmas in July July 12th, 2000 @ 9:45 am PDT
There are something like 3000 employees at the Home Shopping Network HQ. This is where I am working now. Apparently there is a strange thing that only I have noticed happening here. I am finding it increasingly difficult as the day progresses to not grab someone by the lapels (or blouse) and scream, “Why the […]
Met4quad July 8th, 2000 @ 5:09 pm PDT
Damn. There is some problem with the met4quad archive. I keep getting an FTP error from blogger. Rather than fix it, I think I will go drinking with Bob, the self-described husband of Gretchen, at the Red Dog Bar & Grill on Bay-to-Bay Ave. Bay-to-Bay stretches from one bay to another. Nifty name for a […]
My Phone Number June 19th, 2000 @ 12:05 pm PDT
Someone was amazed (laughing hysterically even) that I had posted my home phone number and address here a few weeks ago. I don’t really see why. I mean, it’s not like there are two dozen David V. Gagne’s in Tampa, FL. It would be simple enough for anyone to get that information if they wanted […]
