Pop culture I’ve missed out on


I got to reading JJ’s post on what he missed out on in pop culture, and I started thinking, “I’m a pretty hip dude, what could I have possibly missed out on?” Then I realized that was the meth talking, and I got depressed about how lame I am when it comes to pop [...]

The Manscaping Quandary


I was inspired by Canadian journalist Patrick White’s body grooming misadventures to tell a little of my own story about back hair and Robin Williamsesque fuzziness. This is the first installment in what will come to be known as “The Man Grooming Series”.
First, let’s set the stage. I’m a hairy guy. Not [...]

Where the hell have I been?


I keep checking back on the blog to see if I’ve made any new posts, and for some reason I’ve been remiss in my duties for weeks now. I’m not sure what posts I thought I might write while I wasn’t writing any, but it sure was disappointing to come back to old posts [...]

Maui Onion and Garlic Almonds Cause Halitosis


Yesterday was Easter. My girlfriend got an Easter basket when she went home to visit her mom. I was stuck at home working on a project for school, so I couldn’t go. My girlfriend’s mom is holding my Easter basket hostage until I come visit again. So I got to stare [...]

It all started because I was supposed to meet a group from work in a Corporate Box [...]

This is your life - Quiz Answers


Although no one even ventured a guess, a promise is a promise. I said I’d list the 5 things on this list that I hadn’t really done, and here they are:
01. Bought everyone in the bar a drink
Do I look like I could afford to buy everyone in a bar a drink at the [...]

This is your life


OK, I haven’t done one of these lists in a LONG time. Mainly because I’m a dejected blogger who never gets “tagged” with anything. Or maybe its because when I do get “tagged”, I say I’m going to get around to it about 5 times, but never do.

It’s Your Fault I’m Ghetto Rich


I mentioned how I went ahead and bought a 22″ widescreen monitor during my evening class yesterday, but there’s a bit of a back story to that. See, its a bit of a running joke that my youngest brother and I like to one-up each other with our home computer setups. Last week [...]

What I Did in Class Tonight


I still have 30 minutes to go in ECO 610 - “Managerial Economics” tonight, but let me go over everything I’ve accomplished during the first 2 hours (God bless wireless internet access on campus):

I checked my email and wrote a fellow blogger for permission to include her email in a post
