Dennis Spielman is a super hero with incredible strength, speed, flight, short range teleportation, and minor telekinesis. Even with his awesome powers, he is as valuable as a human. He lives in Oklahoma City where he also works for an optical retailer making prescription eye-wear.
Dennis is currently working on countless projects to save the world from it’s greatest treat: boredom.
Okay, I’m done talking about myself in third person. Basically, what you should know is that I write the most unusual stories for books, movies, games, and comics. I’m always coming up with some crazy idea, but none of them are paying the bills (for now), so I have a day job making glasses. This site is to let everyone know what’s happening in my life, the projects I’m working on, and my journey to open a movie and game development studio. Hum, not sure what else to write, so if you want to know anything, just ask.
What’s You Laugh, You Lose about?
Inspired by the madness of my message board, friends, and the Internet itself, I bring you, “You Laugh, You Lose.” Whenever I have a theme ready, I’ll post a series of funny images or maybe videos or maybe both. There’s always a theme because I’m not some traffic whore plastering random funny images like everyone else. It’s best if you have a tabbed browser and let these images load in new tabs, or just right click and save as. Whatever floats your boat. Now, if you laugh to any of them, you lose! But really, I think if you don’t laugh you’re a loser. You can view past entries here or under the Features tab to the side.
What’s Legally Free Friday?
This is a (hopefully nearly) weekly feature in which I showcase something that you can get for free that’s totally legal. You may view past showcases here or at the Legally Free Friday link under the Features tab.
