    I’m a little late getting to this post because, well, yesterday I spent most of my free time trying to figure out a way to watch the USA play their first game in the World Cup. Too bad they lost. Anyway, I read an article yesterday that really piqued my interest. At first, I didn’t…

  • A Sporting Event Where the Word “World” Means More Than Just The United States.

    We have been diligently following the World Cup this year. Yesterday, we spent several hours at a local brunch spot where we watched Trinidad tie with Sweden, England win after Paraguay’s captian Carlos Gamarra headed in an own-goal, and Argentina beat the Ivory Coast, which was a must-see game. I rooted for the Ivory Coast.…

    I received an email from someone yesterday that had me thinking. I know them personally but I won’t say who wrote it. In fact, I’d like to keep most of this post as private (for everyone) as possible. They posed a question that I thought might be interesting to post here. They asked me how…

    Police have arrested a homeless man in connection with the Greenpoint warehouse fires that took place back in May. I guess it wasn’t Guttman after all. (Thanks to Brad for the information.)

    A St. Louis minor-league baseball club came up with the most horrific hamburger ever. A little over a year ago, Burger King released a breakfast sandwich that packed in 750 calories and 47 grams of fat. The Gateway Grizzlies rank in at 1,000 calories. The donut alone has 10 grams of sugar. (For those of…

    As Rachel Maddow pointed out on yesterday’s radio show, it’s entirely comical (and telling) that Anne Coulter’s new book comes out on 6/6/6. If it’s not purposeful, it sure is funny. Hell, it’s funny anyway. Someone needs to feed her.

    I have nails. For the first time in my life, I have nails. They’re kind of nice, too. Yesterday, I went ahead and got my first ever manicure to celebrate their arrival. I spent 20 bucks (that includes a tip.) They were so pretty and pink and shiny and I found that I kept looking…

    Tobyjoe is in the process of developing some film he shot at the Derby bout on Friday night. I shot with a digital camera. His look so much more interesting, in my opinion. Please swing by. He can talk more about what he used if he wishes. There will be more in the next couple…

    On Friday, Leggs Luthor (aka Anna) hooked us up with press passes to the Gotham Girls Roller Derby bout between the Queens of Pain and The Brooklyn Bombshells. It was amazing. Leggs Luthor broke the record for most points scored during a jam. (I think her total was 12, a shutout.) I know I’m slightly…

    The Department of Homeland Security announced yesterday that it’s cutting New York City’s antiterrorism dollars by 40 percent. I would be speechless, but I am still gloating over the fact that my Nano survived a wash cycle, a spin cycle, a rinse cycle, and another spin cycle. New York officials were given a one-page tally…
