Friday Funnies

Gotta give the big tip of the hat to Luke for inspiring this one. A few of us yesterday reminisced about the greatness of Tom & Jerry cartoons, something I watched a ton of as a kid. Back in college, my buddy Jay G. and I found an audio clip...

Game On: Week of July 29

Here is my column from last week. The games I reviewed were Dragon Quest IX and DarkStar One.

Shark Attack

For those outside DC, please know that Discovery Channel loves Shark Week as much as you do. They love it so much that about three weeks ago they hoisted up the head, fins and tail of a fake gigantic shark and hung them from the exterior of their headquarters in...

My Reading Challenge

I'm probably doing something really stupid, but I gotta give it a try. With the new iPhone, one of the apps that it offers for free is the iBooks app, which is mainly for reading books on an iPad. When the wife got an iPad, to test the iBooks app...

Friday Funnies

Going the stand-up comedy route this week. I'm a big Norm MacDonald fan. He cracks my shit up. Maybe it's because he goes stream-of-consciousness pretty much all the time with no filter. Maybe it's also because he seemingly is high at all times of the day. Maybe it's his delivery...

Idiot of the Day

This is what happens when bad mothering and Facebook collide. What an idiot. And I don't care what she says, that picture sure makes it look like that baby has held that thing before. Not helping your cause, sweetheart. Oh, it also doesn't help that she's from Florida. Sorry, but...

Idiot of the Day

So I got to try a new spot over in Columbia Heights called Social. It's a cool joint that serves good drinks and food dishes and has a nice vibe to it and fun seating. Anyway, I'm hanging out drinking my third mojito (a Campbell favorite) when this girl sits...

Friday Funnies

When it's the anniversary of easily the saddest day of one's life, you do all you can to breathe, relax and try to find a laugh somewhere in the day. I'm not going to say any more except play one of his favorites. Nothing better than old men being goofy...

Trailer Love

For some reason this week a ton of movie trailers are being released for films I am interested in checking out. Can't let all this trailer goodiness go down with sharing it with all eight of you who read this blog. First, the serious stuff. Countdown to Zero looks right...
