His Pants Are So On Fire.
I don’t think anybody anticipated the breech of the levees. It’s simple. Homeboy lied. What’s the definition of a lie again?

What About The Girls?
Last night Tobyjoe and I went to a Krav Maga class in Manhattan. I left work fifteen minutes beforehand, not the wisest idea. Taking a cab across town at rush hour is one of the most stressful commuting situations ever. When I arrived, I was already out of breath. I was also late. Normally, being…

Losing Weight… And My Mind.
I am dieting again. That might explain my tone here as of late. I’m in a very spastic state these days. I feel like I’m taking part in one of those sprints where you’re running so fast, your legs can’t keep up with your body and eventually you just fall down. And it’s sorta fun…

What’s Your Cause?
Something that has always bothered me, something I haven’t ever understood is during a court case when the prosecutor (or defendant) makes a statement that is clearly hurtful to the other side and the judge then asks the jury to disregard the information. Clearly, that’s impossible. And I know it’s a tactic used just so.…

What is Postmodernism?
What the hell is postermodernism anyway? I want real-life examples. Even if you don’t really know, like I don’t really know, take this opportunity to tell us what you think it is.

That Oxymoron Was Emancipated!
There is a discussion going on over at Spread about Postmodernism that made me realize something about myself. I’ll use words, they’ll come up in my head and I’ll say them, and then they don’t mean what I think they mean but I use them anyway. I do this a lot with the word “Ironic”…

Old Negatives
Today, I discovered a box filled with old negatives. At times today, I have felt like I’ve remembered lost memories. The negatives span at least 15 years. There are literally hundreds of negatives that I developed over the years. Some of them haven’t ever been printed. Anyway, I scanned a few of them today. I…

Sometimes It’s Good To Go Inside.
I waited for my cappuccino. The barista at this particular coffee shop was always very charming. He used words like “darling” and “sweetheart”, “sugar” and “honey”. He served terms of endearment with nearly every cup of coffee—uppers, all around. Come to think of it, everyone who works at that coffee shop is usually pleasant. The…

(Some of) The Barbarians.
On Wednesday, The Barbarian Group took us out for dinner. I love it that I’m usually invited to these gatherings as they’re all so damn fun to be around. Look at these beautiful bastards. (Click each image to enlarge.) This is Stacey. Stacey’s purty. Half of Meredith is there, too. She’s a looker as well.

America, Land of the Scared?
In today’s NYT, there is an article on the front page saying that the Dubai Company plans to delay its new role in taking over 30 terminals in 18 countries. Since Wednesday’s discussion here, I’ve been thinking. The conversation even continued Wednesday night while out for dinner with The Barbarian Group. The New York Times…
