When I got home from Virginia Beach yesterday I went through the various news reports that I’ve grown accustomed swimming through. This can literally take me upwards of 3 hours to complete. What I enjoy most about this little habit of mine is that I get to absorb news and opinions from all the nooks […]

A few weeks ago I was scampering about the internets the way I normally do, reading all of my favorite columns and comics, watching my favorite pod casts and stupid videos. As I sat at my desk, with two sleepy dogs at my feet, I kept trying to dig from the depths of my mind […]

I only post this in order to annoy Clare. You know, because Clare and I are tight like that… Just so Denise knows, the lyric is ‘root for the home team‘. Otherwise, all your base are belong to us…

Well, my birthday came and went off without a hitch. I did discover that I share the same birthday as Erin Andrews, Lance Bass, George Will, Randy Travis, and Audrey Hepburn. Other than that it was a nice, low key day. The problem with me hitting 39 is simple: I’m at one of those ages […]

I was cruising on the web the other day and I cam across the works of Andrey Razumovsky. Andrey specializes in very striking erotic photograph which is sometimes mixed with digital art. One of his more recent projects is called “Milk”.

Thank you for your patience during this station break… I always wondered what news anchors did during commercial breaks. If the clip doesn’t play, click the HQ button and then press play. Updating this was a pain because I thought I forgot to do a dump of the blog database and switched nameservers. Then I […]

Angela and I went to Giant in Sterling last month and, lo and behold!, they had the new Scan It! system in place. If you aren’t familiar with this tool, here’s what they say about it at the Giant web site: “Scan It! Scan and bag in the aisle as you shop, with a running […]

While going through videos online you can’t help but run into the vids of people having pole dancing mishaps. They either slide and hurt themselves or the pole somehow collapses to an equally devastating fate. Earlier this year I had stumbled across the following video: and I thought ‘Wow. That’s pretty interesting.’ What didn’t make […]

O.o “Issho ni Training (Training Together): Training with Hinako” is a DVD for your local otaku/NEET/hikikomori. In order to help understand what all this means it helps to learn the Japanese terms. Ergo, go click those links and then we’ll continue. Go ahead! Clicky-clicky! Done reading? Good. So, Training with Hinako is for your pervy […]

Oh, that Playboy. Remember when you would take the opportunity to steal a glance at your Dad’s copies? You know…to read the articles. It felt like you were entering a world that was kept secret by adults because, well, it was porn. Softcore porn, but porn nonetheless. You would start by carefully inspecting the cover […]

Friday, April 17th, 2009. It was a good day – I was slated to head downtown and see some friends and go out. It was quite the evening which I’ll put chronicle as rounding the bases of the baseball diamond. Just after 2pm I stepped up to the plate, hopped into my truck and headed […]

[vimeo]http://vimeo.com/4208071?pg=embed&sec=&hd=1[/vimeo] Dear Santa, I know that the year is still early but I would like you to please keep a special place in your heart for Michael Bay. The reasons are many: He makes movies with explosions He makes movies that have Megan Fox in a skin tight leather suit (0:32 into the clip) He […]

I caught this video this morning and, for some reason, realized that I had never seen this live action Japanese show. In each short commercial you’ll see almost every coming-of-age manga story device invented. Which translates into three: Catching morning wood The indirect kiss through the sharing of a drink peeping on girls dressing for […]

Me: ok, so… Clare: So. Me: I’m reading the washington post Me: and they’re talking about ‘dumping a million bags of tea’ in one of the parks Me: let’s say they use Lipton tea Me: in boxes of 100 Me: that equates to 10,000 boxes of tea Me: right? Clare: Ok Me: if they don’t […]

I found the following website last night and, for some reason, it gave me weird dreams about anthropomorphising objects such as robots. When I get the chance, I’ll draw up the cartoon that kept haunting me and caused me to toss and turn for a good part of my sleepy time. The premise for Tweenbots […]

I’m just not sure how I feel about this. Let’s get the disclaimers out of the way first. The young lady in the video is named Rachel Sexton and she has a page on break.com where she posts rather tame yet provocative videos of herself. The goal? So that you will follow the link to […]

I like this ‘advert’ of sorts for Google Latitude.. It takes a nice simple video of Google employees and then gives the user a nice little pay off at the end. In my case, it was just a reminder of bodily functions: Google reminds us: Puzzy Farts. I went through and I was going to […]

The Rainbow Vomiting Pandas Of Interestingness Originally uploaded by The Searcher I LOVE THIS PICTURE. I’m going to get the larger version of it and then hang it somewhere.

I have several friends who live in Australia. Ok, let me be more specific: I have several girlfriends who live in Australia. They are all beautiful women who are pretty successful and know how to have a good time. While I was speaking to one online today we wound up on the topic of breast […]

It is strange when I think about my father’s death. It only happened two years ago and it feels like forever has gone by. So much has happened since then – I’ve moved back to Northern Virginia, changed jobs, Tobey passed away. It all seems to be a blur when I look back on it; […]

Over the past few days I’ve been…how should I put this?…testing several Easter candies. I love Easter candy. It’s all colorful and tasty and bad for you. Well, if you’ve followed my twitter posts, you’ll see that I’ve had a few candies ready for the annual fun. Oh, did I mention that I also enjoy […]

There isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t think about our big boy, Tobey. I keep feeling like I’m missing something, especially when I think I want to hug his big, lumbering body. Although nobody will ever replace Tobes, we have decided to get another Bernese Mountain Dog. So, the bitch carrying our […]

"An autistic woman with powerful martial art skills looks to settle her ailing mother’s debts by seeking out the ruthless gangs that owe her family money." Such is one of the fairly accurate summaries of Chocolate that I found on the web. Last night, while my wife was on her way to North Carolina, I […]

I caught this off of Gizmodo: First, I’d like to say DAMN, THAT’S COOL! Second, I’d like to point out that I could do this at home, too. Except that I don’t have cool action figures. I don’t think anyone wants to see me try and do a stop motion animation film using my stuffed […]

I have had the good fortune to work in several different places. Each place has been an affirmation that, yes, I’m an adult. Recently, though, I’ve come to realize that I’m an adult but I’m no Spring chicken. I’m more like a buzzard. It has been no secret that I’m pretty flirty. Hell, look at […]

Blech. Meh. Pffft. Whateva. This pretty much sums up my online apathy at the moment. Lately, I’ve been feeling the need to step back away from some of my online socializing. Before you ask I deleted SecondLife two weeks after I installed it. It seems that interacting with social networks and the interwebs in general […]

I really adore my pets. I remember reading a while back a piece that I think was put out by the State Department about what to expect if you’re a foreigner travelling to the United States. One of the examples of this was that a large number of Americans don’t mind their pets sleeping with […]
