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…

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 […]

[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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

"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 […]

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 […]

The world is full of crazy. I’m a down to earth fellow; I’m pretty mellow. For those of you who like to stereotype you could even call me yellow. What gets me, though, is that for all of my sanity, hard work, and Dudley Do-Right attitude about life I am just ‘normal’. Which is ok, […]

Garth: Did you ever find Bugs Bunny attractive when he put on a dress and played girl bunny? Wayne: No. Garth: Neither did I. I was just asking. So, I understand that somewhere television and toy executives sequester themselves away and hatch hair-brained schemes in order to extend their brands and rake in more dough. […]

Oh, God. This makes me giggle like a school girl. Especially since O’Reilly reads it. From the Village Voice – http://blogs.villagevoice.com/runninscared…_with_those.php QUOTE Your Crap Archivist brings you the finest in forgotten and bewildering crap culled from basements, thrift stores, estate sales and flea markets. I do this for one reason: Knowledge is power. Those Who […]

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 […]

Angela went to Mexico last week for a vacation. Yeah, yeah – I know, she was running away to meet with her Latin lover, Inigo Montoya. Anyhow, the day before she left, Angela and I decided to go have a pleasant dinner out. I was thinking of something nice and small – maybe a burger, […]

Robots have become an integral part of our society. They build cars, act as a sentry (South Korean | Metal Storm AWDS), Even though they are just a little ways away from becoming the ass kicking, bone crunching Terminators or Transformers they still manage to capture our imagination. We’ve seen movies like Metropolis, Blade Runner, […]

Let me preface this post by saying that I’m an old school video game junkie. During the golden age of arcades and stand alone machines, I couldn’t get enough of them. My friends and I would ride our bikes up to the airport in Norfolk, VA, and hang out there to play all the cool […]

The Daily Show Today has been a pretty busy day for me. After a good amount of work Angela and I were able to sit down and watch some television. Like most people, we no longer watch much live television. With Verizon FiOS, we record our shows and watch them on our DVR. We hunkered […]

I like nakedness. Ok, I like it when it isn’t my nakedness. Seriously, do you really want to see me nekkid? I thought not. However, I did find the following site absolutely fascinating: Naked People. Keep in mind that these are pictures of both everyday men and women. I try to picture what people look […]

I realize that as I grow older my interests will become more and more narrow. It’s like that with every generation, isn’t it? It is the fundamental reason why old people hate the way young people dress, listen to music and behave. Ultimately I’ll be an old curmudgeon, sitting in my rocking chair at the […]

I’m reconsidering my plans to take over the world through inconspicuous means. I think that I might be able to do it using cats.

This morning I heard that MTv, a Viacom owned company, has recently created http://www.mtvmusic.com/, a site completely dedicated to music videos. After about a minute of thinking ‘Oh, that’s cool.’ I started thinking how ironic it is that I was amazed that create such a thing. Go figure. MTv put out a music video site. […]
