Trailer Love

This trailer is too damn funny. Even if it's not actually real. But with all the winks and nods to the original "Harry met Sally" movie, and the fantastic appearance by Tyson, and you can't go wrong here.

Game On: Week of April 1

My most recent column, in which in reviewed Crysis 2 and Homefront. A big tip of the hat to two of the publishers of the column. First, to the Globe Gazette in Mason City, Iowa. And then, in a pleasant surprise, the Red Deer Advocate in Alberta, Canada. Oh yea,...

My Night with a Pure Heart

Tonight I'm checking out a band I'm a fan of, The Pains of Being Pure at Heart. I honestly don't know how I found out about this band, but I think they were one of those "People who like this album also like these ..." recs from Amazon when I...

Friday Funnies

I admit to never watching the Dana Carvey Show when it was actually airing. What can I say, it only aired during the spring of '96 and I was probably really drunk and whatnot in college, and in my sophomore year I was most likely only watching The Daily Show,...

Idiot of the Day

Well it's Opening Day in the MLB, and that means it's Mike's last post of crazy MLB meltdowns. Enjoy.

Idiot of the Day

Mike came through once again with a quality MLB meltdown. This time, it's Hall of Famer Goose Gossage. No, not Maverick's Goose. The Yankees' Goose. And he's a little cooked in this video.

Idiot of the Day

My pal Mike is stoked about the start of baseball season. Sure, you all know me as the Pinko Commie Bastard Who Loves Soccer and Doesn't Care About Baseball, but his excitement over the start of the season is nice. If nothing else, he's exposing me to some hilarious meltdowns...

Friday Funnies

In honor of my making bacon, I got to relive another great scene from the Muppets Take Manhattan, where Kermit gets into the ad game. If you don't like the Muppets, I don't know that we can be friends or be related to each other.

My Design

I've been trying to learn Adobe Illustrator in a more advanced way. I'm very comfortable with InDesign and Photoshop, but my skills with Illustrator are not bad but not where I'd like them to be, especially in the sense of being able to create things from scratch. I've been working...

Idiot of the Day

This one, sadly, goes to my former employer, SHNS. The first winner of the Scripps National Spelling Bee died, and of course, leave it to them to fudge the headline. In case they've already corrected it, here's a screenshot as proof.

Makin’ Bacon

Before I left for Ireland, I did partake in a cool little cooking experiment. My mother-in-law, knowing my addiction to cooking, smoking and creating our own food instead of having to buy everything, bought me a cool book, called Jar It, Pickle It, Cure It. The book has all sorts...

What I’ve Watched: The League of Ordinary Gentlemen

Not long after my bowling outing with friends, I had a nagging feeling that out there, somewhere, was a documentary about this sport. And because of my psychotic love for documentaries about odd things (Darkon, Bingo, Trekkies), I found one that came out not too long ago called The League...
