Wife is coming home soon! Must hide the bodies!!!! # Stupid game – http://www.onlinegames.com/basketball/ . Simple, based on arcs & trajectory & I'm addicted. Best I got was 8th globally >.< # While Angela was gone I got to do laundry & I learned a valuable lesson: I can't fit into her underwear. Neither can […]

I have a skin irritation on my legs so I used an anti-itch/first-aid cold spray on it in order numb it. I accidentally sprayed my genitals. # @Inkblot It was hot and cold and then numb within the span of two minutes. I thought I was going to die. And my crotch smells minty. # […]

Facebook, Facebook, Facebook. Having dealt with online communities, trends and technology for approximately the past 20 years (egad!), I’m still amazed at how this application has connected me to so many people. However, before I continue with this post, let me toss a few truths out there and get them out of the way: I […]

@video360 Yowza. Thanks for that heads up. That's pretty awesome! # Absolutely mesmerized by PingWire – http://pingwire.com/ . I can't wait until people across North America start to wake up. # 18 degrees outside & I have an iPhone. I'm too much of a wuss to take off my gloves & I look REALLY stupid […]

Because it sucks. When I first heard of that Jay Leno was going to be moved to a 10pm time slot I was underwhelmed. I hadn’t watched ‘The Tonight Show with Jay Leno’ for years. I really couldn’t stand Jay Leno because he always seemed like a pompous, arrogant host.  After tuning into last nights […]

There are things in this world that make you very, very humble. I take for granted that I can walk around and do all of the monotonous and stupid things that I do – drive, wash dishes, eat a burrito, brush my hair, point at an angry looking deer peering at me through the bushes. […]

I’m not exactly sure if this is a plug for the grocer Safeway or if I’m merely falling into a marketing person’s trap. For years we’ve been warned about the subliminal aspects of advertising and I never thought that I’d experience a Pavlovian moment until now. This commercial drives me nuts: [flv]http://heyitcouldbeworse.com/media/Safeway_USA__Commercial.flv[/flv] It seems fairly […]

I’ll start this off by saying that, sure, I can be an insensitive jerk sometimes. I know, I know. Please don’t stand there with your mouth agape and that look of shock in your eyes but it’s true. But, let’s look at something that happened on Facebook yesterday: Women were posting their bra color in […]

As you may well have realized, smashy.net has been incommunicado for almost a year. It has been quite the experience. The original site used bblog. According to their site: NEWSFLASH: bBlog is dead! Long live bBlog! After a number of years of the bBlog project, with the last couple inactive, it is time to call […]

I’ll actually post the junk in my head that I’ve been meaning to post soon 🙂

It was one year ago today, December 26, 2008, that Angela and I came home from early morning post-Christmas shopping and breakfast and we found my Berner, Tobey, had passed away. It seems fitting that the skies are crying with me again. Over the past year a lot has changed. There isn’t a day that […]

Christmas presents. Oy, oy, oy…what a horrible time of the year. I’m never good at finding and buying presents for people. It wasn’t until recently that I finished buying presents for my wife, Angela, and I spent a good part of the last few weeks trying to figure out a cool present to give her. […]

It’s that time of the year and, dang nabbit, the commercials are going to start hitting me pretty hard. For some reason I don’t think television is the same as it used to be – none of the shows really have a hard hitting Christmas story. You know what I’m talking about. Like ‘My So […]

The tag line for Pedro Arzipe’s Port Sherry web comic is “When I was a child, I used to speak like a child, think like a child, reason like a child; when I became a man…”. The March 4, 2009 comic titled “The Obsolete Add-on” so deftly illustrates how far we’ve come with video games as well as how much we’ve lost.

I’ve been hearing a lot about ‘The Real World: DC’ over the past few months. Real World XXIII: Washington DC – MTV Shows Most of it has been pretty negative. Honestly, all I can really think is that I’m pretty apathetic about it. It’s almost ‘too late’ in a sense. Hell, I haven’t watched MTv […]

It’s almost December and I can already hear Andy Williams merrily singing everywhere I go “It’s the holiday season And Santa Claus has got a toy For every good girl and good little boy He’s a great big bundle of joy He’ll be coming down the chimney, down Coming down the chimney, down…” Which, I […]

I was talking to Matt today and we were tossing around tv shows that we thought should be required viewing for Thanksgiving. Here are two oldies but goodies that I don’t think kids these days would have seen. So, aside from the Charlie Brown Thanksgiving show or Adam Sandler’s Thanksgiving Song, I give you – […]

Currently, Angela and I don’t have kids. We have 3 dogs and a cat. Somewhere down the line we may have one or two (or 15). Are we missing out? Maybe, maybe not. I do know, however, that sometimes the thought of having kids to do stuff with is pretty cool. I dunno. Stuff like […]

I’m not terribly out of shape. If, of course, the shape that you’re thinking of is a round ball. However, I’ve come to appreciate the people who are athletic or physically fit. Today, Angela was on Boing Boing and she came across an article referencing the 1987 Crystal Light National Aerobic Championship: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SeMJOPlK-0E[/youtube] Oy. What […]

I can’t believe I haven’t seen this even though it was posted to Vimeo over a year ago: A mash up of Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon and the first episode of the BBC’s Planet Earth. The audio and video are completely unedited. The Dark Side of Planet Earth from allan corbett on […]

I have this waiting for me at home [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2BHkAf9nO5Q[/youtube] and I can’t wait to watch it! Not only will Clarkson be testing numerous super cars with his trademark pompousity but we’ll also get to see Top Gears The Stig vs. (the currently cancelled) Fifth Gear’s Tiff Needell! It should be a good watch 🙂 I’ll […]

I went to the doctor today in order to find out what the problem is with my wing and my back. My shoulder has been killing me for the past two weeks and I have absolutely no idea why. So much so that my back has shooting pains because I think it is compensating for […]

Marissa Miller is 8 years younger than me. Whereas I got to see Star Wars when it first came out she was probably still getting used to solid food. Another difference? She’s a wildly successful model who has been on the cover of Sports Illustrated’s swimsuit issues and a Victoria’s Secret Angel. Me? I’m crabby […]

Halloween is just around the corner and I have to say that I have no idea what to expect. It seems as if every year this ‘holiday’ manages to disappoint me. Last year we had a ton of candy and we decorated our house with the requisite Halloweenie stuff and what happened? We got a […]

Alice in Wonderland – Extended Trailer I watched this clip and the following immediately came to mind: Tim Burton must really have a thing for Johnny Depp Johnny Depp is about 46 years old and still called ‘Johnny’ Johnny Depp gets some of the weirdest roles and make up I wonder if the music will […]

I like Mike Rowe a lot. No, not in some kind of man crush kind of way, but more along the lines that his television personality seems to be the same way that he is in real life. His television show, Dirty Jobs on the Discovery Channel, is in its 5th season and has reached […]

First off… I will not lie – I’m an avid anime/manga consumer. It gives you a warped sense of what culture is like in Japan. On the one hand you think that every scantily clad school girl has a kick ass robot that can transform into a spaceship, on the other hand you also get […]
