Burton Speaks

Irony: i·ro·ny n The use of words to express something different from and often opposite to their literal meaning.

I'm Burton from Portland, Oregon, United States. I'm 33 and live in the Portland Metro Area. I work hard. I drive fast. I play often. I'm sarcastic, appreciate irony, and find humor in even the darkest of events. I'm non-traditional. I question authority. I'm a know-it-all and a planner. And most days, I wake up thinking the world is full of fundamentally good people... and have a lot of problems when I'm proven wrong. Any other questions?

Stimulated

Monday, June 30, 2008

I'd like to thank the federal government. It seems that I've finally received my economic stimulus check. That's right... $300 to blow on a TV or a laptop or a car payment or, in my case (since I'm unemployed), rent.
