Put Your Hands Up? My Arms are Tired
May 17th
Got to any dance club or click on your Top 40 and without fail, someone in the song asks you put your “hands up” or “hands in the air” or “hands way up there.”
In fact, it is requested of me in almost every damn song, and I just can’t do it anymore, my arms are [...]
“I Need Some Sandwiches. Fast.”
May 15th
If there was any college job I had that could be deemed an ‘adventure’, it would be the one that on paper looks the most gentile : making and delivering sub sandwiches.
As boring as it sounds, the job required me to do most of the work including taking calls, making and then delivering the subs [...]
What I Watch and Why
May 15th
My favorite shows and why they appeal to me…
- Intervention makes me feel better about my own addictions.
- Real Housewives makes me feel better as a human being. Also handy if you need to throw-up or forsake humanity.
- Locked Up Abroad reminds me never to stick drugs up my blowhole and take them to Bangladesh…no [...]
Death of the PC…Coming Soon
May 15th
Okay, so how many years have we been hearing about the pending death of the PC? Ten? And how many more years will we be hearing it?
Here is another.
Yet, still, after all these years, I sit here, writing this and reading those stories on a…PC.
In fact, my PC has expanded over the ages to now [...]
Witness to a Beheading
May 4th
For many, many years I have been haunted by what I witnessed on that sunny, hot Friday afternoon in Chop-Chop Square.
That was the day I watched a poor immigrant, accused of dealing drugs, lose his head into a wicker basket.
TGIF…
To say it was hot is to deny it justice.
The temp was 110 degrees, which would [...]
My History with “Facebook.com”
May 4th
In what is perhaps the most indelible scene in the movie The Social Network, Justin Timberlake’s character, Sean Parker, meets Mark Zuckerberg in a fancy restaurant and schmoozes him with tales of his Napster days.
Yet most interestingly, before he leaves, he makes what is described as his “greatest contribution.” He advises Zuck [...]
Must-See Movies for Movie Lovers
Apr 28th
As a lifelong film buff, and film major, I thought I would make an updated registry of ‘must-see’ films – movies that are not necessarily on all the mainstream lists….
Perhaps you’ve seen some, perhaps you’ve seen none. Check them out if you haven’t and hopefully you can find a gem…
Cube
Shaolin Soccer
Big Night
LA Confidential
Fritz Lang’s M
Wallace [...]
Questions for Inception
Apr 22nd
- Why does gravity get affected in the second level but not the third or limbo? Seems if you set off an explosion in the third level, it causes a frickin’ apocalypse in limbo.
- Why is limbo so bad if you can just jump off a building?
- Why does Sedo have to wait until he’s [...]
Hanging with a Porn Star, Vegas Edition
Apr 17th
A friend and I were hanging out by the roulette table at the Cosmopolitan, watching another buddy lose thousands, when a couple of attractive girls walked past us, into the bar.
It was 3 am.
We followed them into the casino lounge, bought them a few drinks and then headed up to my hotel room for [...]
B.O. is Right, Kanye’s a Jackass
Apr 17th
In case you missed it, the President recently took the opportunity to label Kanye West a “jackass.” The second time he has done so.
And I applaud greatly him for it…West is a jackass, the kind we need to minimize in culture.
How big of a jackass?
Well, he was already a jackass for saying “George Bush hates [...]
Ugliness at the Playboy Party
Feb 19th
If there is anything worse to do at a domain conference, or any conference, I have yet to encounter or witness and partake as I did late last night on the bus ride home from the Playboy mansion.
For those of you who do not know, the mansion delivers guests to parties via a legion of [...]
Oh No! Avatar in 2D Sucks!
Apr 26th
Perhaps the addition of 3D made ALL the difference or at least I certainly hope so. Because in two dimensions, Avatar is a subpar sci-fi/cartoon with little to no depth or character or long term viability. A phenomenon or a fad. Not even Cameron’s best. A few notes:
- Story is Dances with Wolves…in space. Do have to [...]
Speaking of Dance Clubs…
Apr 14th
Few notes on one of my favorite nocturnal activities…
- Amsterdam has the best DJs. Australia too for some reason.
- Once you get table or bottle service, you can never go back.
- Last time I was in Vegas, a very attractive and voluptuous redhead gave me a spontaneous lapdance/makeout session at our table. “No lapdances, no lapdances!” yelled [...]
Hot Notes of the Week
Apr 11th
- Is there any question that Tina Fey is smarter and more talented than the real Sarah Palin?
- I’d rather do Sarah though.
- I have no love loss for man-boobs Mickelson. His fat ass proves golf is a game, not a sport.
- Katy Perry has the best set of tits going right now! She knows it [...]
Headcase Files: Tidbits from a Crazy Life
Apr 4th
- I was once $100,000 in debt and fought my way out of it, paying back every dime. I should have just declared bankruptcy.
- I’ve broken three bones, on seperate trips, partying in Vegas.
- I was invited to tryout for Second City in Chicago when I was in College, working as the MC in a comedy [...]
Notes on the Week
Apr 3rd
– I have a deep love for Starship Troopers. The combo of cheese and killer effects and perfect casting make it a joy everytime.
- No to health care reform, no to financial reform, no to energy bill. Obama just needs them to keep saying “no” until November.
- The Twins won’t win the Central. The [...]
Add More States to the Union
Mar 28th
Posted by admin in Commentary
In many ways it seems as logical as manifest destiny would dictate but one must also consider the benefits and ease with which the United States could add two more stars to its flag while sealing its eastern front.
The two candidates for statehood I suggest are Puerto Rico and Iceland. Here’s why…
Puerto Rico
Already a US [...]
