When you’re married you tend to turn a blind eye to many things. Ok, so Angela likes to sleep in while I like to wake up before the rest of humanity. Angela and I have an informal competition to see who can wait the longest to do the dishes, unload the dishwasher and do the […]

Angela and I went to the supermarket today and I saw what I though was the coolest thing: That’s right! Bread in the form of a snake! Oh, man! THAT IS SO FRIGGIN’ NEAT! I know, I know…it is just dough which has been made into an “S-curve” with the top part of the dough […]

July 5th. Yeah, it falls after July 4th, the United States of America’s birthday. You would think that i would have something better to do on the morning after, such as nurse a red, white and blue hang over, but no. I was hanging out early in the morning scouring the news and trying to […]

Adobe Flash is starting to have to find different ways to leverage itself in the new web world. It used to be that you could create web pages with roll overs and simple effects and, more likely than not, it would require the Flash plug-in. However, the new crop of javascript libraries and various other […]

I was sitting at my desk yesterday, trying to quietly doze off to my mid-morning nap (not to be confused with my planned siesta nor pre-departure slumber) when my co-worker, Matt, sends me an email with a link in it. I thought nothing of it since we try to keep each other in the loop […]

You know, I used to work in offices that were similar to this. It was a grand old time, full of energy, creativity, fun and productive people. It seems like it was so long ago. The Great Office War Yeah, I need to find a similar environment to be in.

I have heard from several of you that you wonder where my updates are. I find it interesting that, once you filter out the search engines and spammers, I have a pretty decent number of regular readers. Why haven’t I been updating this more? Simple – I’ve been cheating on you. For the past few […]

We’re off to Arlington to see dad today. It is Father’s Day, my second one without him. It hasn’t gotten any easier trying to cope with this. All week long I’ve felt myself starting to well up to cry whenever I think about it. I’ve been jealous of all the people wishing other’s Happy Fathers […]

I am, for all intents and purposes, merely mortal. A mortal composed of flesh and bone and blood; dripping with an abundance of life and emotions – hopes and dreams and tons of other stuff that I’m sure people smarter and more eloquent could articulate much better than slovenly old me. Keeping this in mind, […]

Hey! Look at that! It is Sunday night and, lo and behold, I have writer’s block! Well, that’s sorta true and sorta untrue. I have a lot that I want to talk about but really no idea how I want to talk about it. Go figure, I’m at a loss for words. This is one […]

Our largest dog, Tobey, has been in and out of the vet this past week. We’ve been through numerous scares and emotional rollercoaster rides. There were several times where we didn’t think anything could be done for him and we didn’t know if he would even make it. There was the distinct possibility that we […]

I remember listening to NPR last year while I was in North Carolina. There was a report that the siesta was going the way of the Dodo bird. How much does that suck?! I was sitting at my desk today thinking that I could have absolutely relished having a nap in the middle of the […]

Turkish Star Wars You can look it up on YouTube for even better highlights (with music rip offs and training montages!) Turkish Rambo See, kids. This is why you should always pick up after yourselves. Look at all those RPGs laying around! You wouldn’t want someone invading your super secret base and tearing it apart […]

Ok, kids. This post is going to seemingly swing from one end of the spectrum to the other. Some of you may find this boring, others might even consider it to be somewhat offensive. If you find it so, you have my utmost apologies. I was on break.com the other day and I caught the […]

Angela and I bought Grand Theft Auto IV when it came out. No, we didn’t wait outside of Best Buy and snatched it at midnight on release day. We have work, you know. We did, however, pick it up later on release day. There were plenty of copies. Due to work and my schedule, I […]

Cheerleaders. Dance squads. What’s the difference? I don’t really know. Is it like that episode of Family Guy where Meg wants to be a cheerleader but they think she’s a complete gargoyle so she instead joins the flag corps? (btw, I should never have posted that UCLA cheerleader post during the NCAA tournament? Why? Because […]

I grab the following pictures from the Angie Everhart thread in the forum: Someone, ANYONE, answer me this – HOW THE FUCK DID JOE PESCI HOOK UP WITH THAT? After a nine month engagement Joe Pesci broke it off with Angie Everhart. And what did she do? She subsequently got herself busted for drunk driving […]

Work with me here. I know some of you smoke. I’ll be honest – when I drink I occaissionally smoke maybe a cigarette, possibly a cigar. I also know some of you have kids. I know some of you even have kids who smoke (teens, not toddlers). I also know that those of you with […]

Sandee Westgate. I’ll be honest, I barely know who this woman is. Evidently she was in Playboy and, according to her website she’s: …a girl-girl adult film star, and XXX magazine model. I’m known online as the “Playboy Model gone bad”. I’ve been featured in Playboy publications over a dozen times and I have stepped […]

Yes, Ladies and Gents! I have just done the unimaginable! The amazing! The never thought possible! I have just broken a NEW WORLD RECORD! Ok, well, I suppose it is more of a personal record than a World Record. I’ve been married to the same woman for the past 5 years 😉 To celebrate we […]

No, really. There isn’t. It is a nice day out. You should go out and play. Oh, and for you slovenly folk that absolutely refuse to get up I leave you with this video from dannychoo.com I warned you! Now go out there and do some living! /looks left /looks right Ok, if you’re still […]

You can have your MMA freaks punching and kicking and grappling each other all over the place (although I do like watching Melvin Manhoef fight – Manhoef vs. Cyborg, anyone?). I, however, sometimes prefer the good ol’ fashioned chop socky films by the Shaw Brothers or Golden Harvest. I don’t know why. Maybe because I […]

I remember what it was like to be an annoying little brother. Granted, it was way, way, wayyyy back when we all rode around on those bicycles with the giant wheel in the front and the little wheel in the back and candy was only a penny a stick at the country store. The world […]

If I ever get around to rescheduling my paintball outing I know that there are at least two things that I’m going to want to bring with me: A mini-gun I hear that some of the more powerful and intricately designed mini-guns rely on multiple battery packs. I also think that a custom feed would […]

es, yes. I know there’s a thread for cheerleaders of all sorts in the main TJNR forums. Trust me, it isn’t normally my gig to say ‘Aye, carumba! She’s one hot tamale!’. HOWEVER… During the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament this past week I managed to catch the UCLA/Memphis game. It was a pretty good game […]

http://heyitcouldbeworse.com/?p=190 http://heyitcouldbeworse.com/?p=191 http://heyitcouldbeworse.com/?p=192 It is really, really hard to believe that a year has already passed. I wish today would end. I keep finding myself about to fall into a weeping lump of cry baby. It is taking everything in my power to keep myself busy and to keep my mind off things.

Foodies, according to Wikipedia, are “…amateurs who simply love food for consumption, study, preparation, and news.”. I have, in my many years on this planet, made many decisions which I have put me somewhere in the Foodie realm. I love shopping at stores like William Sonoma, Bed Bath & Beyond or anywhere that has utensils […]
