Game On: Week of November 25

My recent column reviewing Assassin's Creed: Revelations and The Lord of the Rings: War in the North. Thanks to the Honolulu Star Advertiser for publishing, which I have not seen them pub my column in a while, so it's nice to have them back in the fold.

Friday Funnies

Because it's Thanksgiving, we have to celebrate the holiday the proper way: with a clip from my wife and I's favorite show that is just for us, Mad About You. The show is dated, goofy, couple-y and all that gushy stuff, but we love it and the wife watches it...

My Design

My friend Molly and I had a different beginning to our friendship than anyone I've ever known. We met in Richmond, VA for a two-week copy editing seminar that was part of my summer internship back during my junior year of college. Molly lived in St. Petersburg, FL, and knew...

Game On: Week of Nov. 18

My recent column, reviewing The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. Thanks to Seattle Times for publishing.

Idiot of the Day

I was in Florida this past weekend for a great friend's wedding, but of course during my travels I encountered a few idiots, as they do have a tendency to produce many of them in the sunshine state.This one I saw on a highway billboard. Vasectomies are no laughing matter,...

Friday Funnies

I have a whole list of nominees for this week's Friday Funnies, and believe me I'll get to them all, but I will also most likely throw a bunch of them into Idiot of the Day posts, because they could easily overlap. This one is good not just for the...

Game On: Week of Nov. 11

My recent column reviewing Batman: Arkham City and Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception. Thanks to the Seattle Times for publishing.

Friday Funnies

It's 11.11.11, so of course we must pay tribute to the man who brought us the true meaning of the number 11, Nigel Tufnel. Sadly the fools on the inter webs have all disabled the embedding on the videos so you'll have to follow this link to watch, but trust...

What I’ve Read: Last Call

It tooks weeks longer than I had hoped, but I finally conquered this mammoth, deep dive into the rise and fall of Prohibition. Being an avid drinker, this book is right up my alley and the 14 years of Prohibition (and the years before and after it) are filled with...

Game On: Week of Nov. 4

My recent column, reviewing Battlefield 3 and Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One. Thanks to the Seattle Times and the Nashua Telegraph for publishing.

Friday Funnies

Eddie Murphy has been getting a lot of press this week, for what reason I have no idea. I guess there is a movie (that probably looks like crap) or an interview where he says something questionably stupid. Shame, because the Eddie Murphy of my childhood was a comedic genius,...

Game On: Week of Oct. 28

My recent column reviewing Dark Souls and Dead Rising 2: Off the Record. Thanks to the Seattle Times for publishing.
