My Computerized Palm Reading from 1997
Long before the recent rise in AI, computers could perform palm readings. Computerized palm readings represent a fascinating intersection of ancient practices and modern technology. Traditionally, palmistry involves analyzing the lines on a person's palm to predict their future and infer their personality traits. In the digital age, this practice has been transformed by artificial intelligence and machine learning. These [...]
March Twenty is the International Day of Happiness
I recently learned that my birthday and website, March 20th, land on what is known as the U.N. International Day of Happiness. It was established by the United Nations General Assembly in 2012, when all 193 member states unanimously adopted UN resolution 66/281, recognizing happiness as a fundamental human right and goal, and aspiration in the lives of all human [...]
My Communication Style & Personality Traits
So via a couple of online personality quizzes that I recently took, I thought it would be fun to share the results. Admittedly they do hit my personality and communication style on the head. The Myers-Briggs 16 Personalities is something that I've been seeing frequently on social media for the last couple of years and only recently figured out what [...]
Three Twenties Day
Today is 3/20/2020 and the namesake for this website, which is named for my birthday 🎂. Otherwise, I wish I had more to offer on this day. 🤷🏼♂️
10th Anniversary of MarchTwenty.com
It's been 10 years since I registered MarchTwenty.com. The years before I registered this domain name, I had registered march-twenty.com and then later marchtwenty.net. As such, I redesigned the site... again. With luck, I will now try and focus on my next book(s).
Spring Writing Update
By in large I have nothing really new to report in my life. I've regularly uploaded photos from my various activities to my Picasa Web Album and some videos of my niece to Vimeo. As for Mistletoe's Night, it's now available in its entirety for free as an ebook on Scribd (nope) and you can now purchase the paperback of [...]
First Royalty Check
I finally received my first royalty check from Lulu. It's not a lot of money, especially considering more than half of it was from direct family members (Mom). But, it certainly helps when you don't have much to begin with. It will probably cover half my license plate renewal that's due next month. Also I recently made an e-book version [...]
Ambulance Ride Along – For School
Later this week I'm going on a ride along with an ambulance service. To date, I've never set foot in an ambulance one way or the other. So this should be an eye opening experience for me. I'm still unsure if I want to do this for a living though. Even after two full months of class, I don't know [...]
First EMT Class
I had my first EMT-Basic class this evening. This is certainly going to be an interesting experience. The ride along portion of the course alone should be eye opening enough. I never been inside an ambulance one way or an other. But, I am still unsure if I want to do that for a living. At the very least I [...]
Gen Con, How I Miss Thee
I went to Gen Con every year through the 90's up until it was moved out of Milwaukee. I miss it even though I admittedly never took part in the actual gaming that went on there. I did, however, enjoy exploring the exhibit hall and gazing at all the hard-to-find stuff that you couldn't get anywhere else. I especially liked [...]
