    About two months ago, Tobyjoe and I were at Enid’s with some friends. While there, a song came on. I couldn’t help but sing along. I made a note to myself: Remember this song. Download it later. It’s from your youth. Of course, the next day I forgot how it went. A few weeks after…

    When I was ten, a girl named Nancy Horn lived up the street from us. Our neighborhood was shaped like a lower case n. At least that’s how I picture it now. She lived at the top of the n. We lived at the bottom of the right-hand-side of its leg. Her parents were friends…

    I know most of the world isn’t online during the weekend, but I’m really itching to start a discussion surrounding this particular issue. I’m not sure how I feel about it as I was not raised with Islam. I was raised Catholic and while I have seen some pretty horrid things done to Christ over…

    Am I the only person who finds Overheard In New York kinda off-color at times? This was taken directly from their “Totally Awesome Quotes” section: Title: Go Back to Israel! Jewess: That’s the third time you mentioned Jews. What’s wrong with Jews? Goy: They are demanding, confrontational, and have a hard time telling the truth.…

    Last night, I visited the Barnes and Noble on 46th street to pick up a few things for the project we’re currently working on. I also wanted to pick up a new book for myself. I ended up getting The Good Life by Jay Mcinerney. Judging by its cover, you might figure out what it’s…

    On Tuesday night, those of us watching the State of the Union heard breaking news about Cindy Sheehan being arrested for (and I quote) “unveiling a banner” while seated in chambers. Everyone heard that. That’s what was reported. Two other people were arrested as well. But I didn’t hear about that until a day later.…

    An off-duty, rookie cop walks into a White Castle. He is intoxicated. It’s 4 in the morning. He’s carrying a gun and isn’t supposed to. That’s rule number one. He broke it. He orders his meal. While in line something happens. Words are exchanged. Since it’s 4 in the morning, the witnesses have varying accounts…

    Tobyjoe and I got to talking last night. We have an idea I think is absolutely fabulous and absolutely easy. Should it work it will prove satisfying for everyone involved. Here’s the deal: The first 5 people to send me their addresses via email (people I DON’T regularly see, please. There’s a reason. It’s not…

    It’s been one of those weeks where I am second-guessing everything I say or do, talk about, eat, wear, think, or forget. Plus, I’m tired. I’m currently reading Charles Baxter, The Feast of Love. Last night, I lay in bed reading. Toby was at the computer. I was at the part where Chloé’s life changes…
