Game On: Week of May 13
My column from a couple weeks ago. I reviewed Iron Man 2 and Super Street Fighter IV. […]

Friday Funnies
Last weekend when Luke was in town, it was discovered he had never seen the hilarious Dramatic Chipmunk videos. Once we loaded it up on the ole iPhone, he went into a laughing fit that only better better described as a full-bore belly spasm. His face went red, he laughed for about 6 minutes straight […]
Idiot of the Day XIV
Walking to the grocery store yesterday, I found myself behind this lady. Look, I don’t have a problem with people doing crazy things to their hair. I put some high-priced, naturally made fancy stuff to make myself look as awesome as I do. But I had to do a double-take and laugh when this woman […]
Mmm, Ribs
So yesterday I smoked three racks of ribs. Jamaican jerk BBQ style. Damn tasty if you ask me. Plus, everyone there seemed equally satisfied with the results. In any case, it took no time for a few of the participants to get uber-sleepy. It may have been that they started watching the Miss USA pageant, […]
Bye, Bye Banks … Until Another Day
One of my best photo experiences ever coincided with being in NYC and shooting one of my favorite things to watch, skateboarding. Kelly and I went to NYC a couple years ago and went with Eric to the Brooklyn Banks, this kickass spot under the Brooklyn Bridge that is a mecca for skaters. I got […]
Friday Funnies
A couple weeks ago Kelly was sent a link to a recut trailer to The Shining, in which it makes the movie look like a G-rated Disney flick. I told him that many moons ago I had found what I thought was the originator of this trend. He instantly wanted to see it, and I […]
Greening My Mother: Gettin Clean
My mom’s been doing lots of things to improve her eco footprint, but there’s no shame in nagging her about more things she can do. Plus, most of the time it’s not me nagging her; I just need an excuse to talk about more things I’ve learned and what better way to do it than […]
Friday Funnies
This has been around for years, but damn it makes me laugh every time. The good folks at Robot Chicken made a uber-long stop-motion movie based on all the Star Wars films. It’s damn funny, is all I will say. This is just one scene from the movie, but I highly encourage you to scour […]
The Female Dickey
So on the tube the other night pops up this commercial that made me laugh and feel uncomfortable for the “actors” who have to star in this commercial. My joy in watching this TV spot was as boundless … First off, this is quickly entering the pantheon of hilarious infomercials. How many takes do you […]
Getting Back in the Groove
Well, it had to happen eventually. I was getting fed up with not getting enough running in, and after several months of not getting out there enough, it was time to hit the pavement and start getting back into running shape. About a month ago, I found my motivation. The Takoma Park 5K (comically called […]
