  • Go Back To Those Gold Sounds

    My dearest, most lovely, most amazing, and talented friend, Soung, eloped on January 10th. It was a Tuesday, otherwise, I would have been there. Damn you people for eloping on a Tuesday! (When it’s central, so essential) I met Soung when I was 18. We lived together in college. Katrina introduced us. Soung was the…

  • And The Finalists Are…..

    And the contenders are…. I find the first one to be very lame and by lame I mean typical and expected. Plus, well, they didn’t pick mine, those bastards. Did you notice that the finalists are from Berkeley, Princeton, and Cambridge? I get the picture. I see where this is going. SNOTTY LIBERAL COMMUNISTS!!

  • Peace March Down Broadway. April 29th, 2006

    Tobyjoe and I attended the peace march that took place in New York City this Saturday. It was pretty amazing, to be honest. For some reason, I always get choked up around large groups of people who come together for a similar reason. I am not sure why. Anyway, I have some images I’d like…

  • The New Yorker Caption Contest.

    The other day I was flipping through our weekly New Yorker when I discovered that they had a weekly caption contest. I mentally recorded the comic, and within a few seconds, I had decided on a caption. This is the comic: My caption: You don’t emit squiggly lines, do you? After running it by Tobyjoe,…

  • Chicago Prohibits Foie Gras

    Yay Chicago! Foie gras is produced by force-feeding grain to ducks and geese several times a day through a pipe inserted into their throats, causing their livers to expand. Someone I work with said, “Yeah, but is that really painful?” Hopefully, New York will follow. I’d love to see veal outlawed as well. Read more…

  • Flickr, mihow.com, and Scarlett Johansson

    OK, so there are a few things I’d like to talk about today. First, I’m going to talk about Flickr. Then, I’ll bring up my pictures. Finally, I’ll talk about Scarlett Johansson and how she’s in my foyer again. I like Flickr. I really do. At first, I wasn’t super keen on it. I remember…
