  • I'm Dreaming of a White July 4th.

    I work on 42nd Street and Madison. I have worked here for a little over a year. I’m not crazy about Midtown. Actually, I really can’t stand Midtown. The people are grumpier, yet they seem to be wealthier. It’s weird, Midtown. And even the bodegas, delis, and chain restaurants take note of the higher income…

  • Who knew he didn't stop at cheeseburgers and girly drinks?

    Today I discovered that Jimmy Buffet has a song called Dickhead When he’s out drivin’ he’s a Dickhead in his car. When he’s out drinkin’ he’s a Dickhead in the bar. When he’s at a party he’s a Dickhead drinkin’ beer. He’s got to be the winner of “Dickhead Of The Year”.

  • Save Us All. Quit Smoking.

    “Surgeon General Richard H. Carmona declared today that the evidence is now ‘indisputable’ that secondhand smoke is an ‘alarming’ public health hazard, causing tens of thousands of premature deaths from heart disease and cancer among nonsmokers each year.” Surgeon General Warns of Secondhand Smoke “There is no safe level of secondhand smoke, and even brief…

  • I'm Vagina Man's wife. Fear me.

    Tobyjoe and I headed to Nevada Smiths on Sunday to watch the England vs. Ecuador game. At 9 AM the upstairs bar was already full so we headed downstairs where there was more room. Soon, the downstairs was packed as well. We stood there for about an hour and a half watching people trickle in…

  • What the Hell Happened?

    I went to the gym to watch the second half of the Italy/Australia football game. (I promise you, I won’t talk about soccer forever but for now I am really, really into it and it makes me happy.) I ran for 45 minutes and hopped off to watch the last 3 on the floor. At…

  • I'm a Sore Loser.

    There is an awesome article in the WSJ about long-term goals for soccer in the U.S. “The hardest thing for people to accept and understand – longtime fans, soccer haters, the awakening media, the gleefully dismissive European football world – is that soccer in the U.S. has to be viewed through a lens more suitable…

  • I Am Obsessed With a Blog.

    I have been keeping this Web site for just under five years. In that time, I am proud to say that I have somehow avoided becoming obsessed with another blogger (in that really unhealthy way). I have met people through mihow.com, but I haven’t developed any unhealthy online girl (or guy) crushes. Thus far, I…

  • Chafed Cheeks and Angry Ankles

    Runners, I need your help. Let’s start with my ankle. It hurts. I have been running anywhere from 3.5 to 4.5 miles a day and upping my distance on the weekends. I love it. My heart rate has even gone down. (Before it would shoot up well above 70. Now, it takes a while before…

  • Offsides

    A lot of people new to football (soccer), or just those who have never played, have a big problem with offsides. For those who are unfamiliar with offsides. In order to be offsides a player “must be on their attacking half of the field, be involved in the play, and be closer to the goal…
