A Quick Look Back

On Saturday night a few of us gathered to eat some food and hang out, and in the course of the evening we ended up watching the SNL Presidential Bash, where clips of political skits were shown from season’s past. This got me to thinking about a great clip from The Daily Show when they […]

So Long, BVD Boy

Some of you may recall this story from earlier in October in this space. It was a warm and fuzzy tale of a guy in an office just trying to use the restroom, and instead getting a full-on show of male semi-nudity with little regard for office environment. It is still a conversation topic for […]

Holy Creep Out, It’s Catman

My buddy Kelly lives down in Dupont Circle, and while it’s a great condo that he has lived in for the last seven or so years, the real special treat of the apartment is the front porch. You see, his building started taking care of this stray black cat. Sounds nice, except this stray cat […]

Yes We Did!

I’ll keep this short. I’m stunned into something many I know would not think possible from me: a lack of speech. I’m so overwhelmed with happiness and joy and celebration that I am at a loss for words. This country is ready and has now said it is ready for a new time. It is […]

Monsters Vs. Aliens

OK, I have a little bit of a soft-spot for animated movies. Not all of them mind you (Toy Story, Monsters, Inc., Care Bears, and many others I cannot stand), but I’d be a lying fool if I said I didn’t have some that I truly enjoy watching. The Incredibles, for one, is just hilarious […]

Creepy And Cool All Over

I’ll get half-sappy for a moment. One of my big mentors (though he never really knew it) is my buddy Bill. He’s a bigshot photog on Capitol Hill. I knew a lot of the photographers at the newspapers I worked at, but Bill and I were cool with the same punk bands and making fun […]

Simple and To The Point

Vote. Please, everyone, vote. My DC vote won’t mean a damn thing for Obama (he’s winning DC in a cakewalk), but I’m eagerly trying to get everyone to vote for DC Councilmembers who are against opening up Klingle Road. I like having open park spaces in my neigborhood. Screw those who want to shave 2 […]

Clouds of the Family Ilk

I give up. This is the week all my enemies must have been hoping for. If you have been following my travails of the last six days, surely you have seen the humor and darkness that has surrounded me. If there could be something of a culmination, it happened last night at Halloween dinner with […]

Cloudy Week Ain’t Over Yet

It’s Friday. Then end of the work week. And as much as I would love to rejoice in parting of the clouds and the sunshine breaking through to end this week of misery, I still cannot get past the storm. I flew back home to Kentucky last night. It was quite the experience. Normally I […]

A Silver Lining In The Clouds

I love The Office. It’s just a great show, and it’s black comedy is of the highest order. And the new HR chief they brought in is fantastic, just for the fact that she’s Michael only with breasts. It’s great. I’m just posting one of the deleted scenes because it is just too damn funny […]
