Go to this link, scroll down to the third photo and look out the window. No, not your window; the window in the photo. I wonder if they come with the house. UPDATE: Characteristic of this blog, I’m a bit behind. Lindsay posted a link to the same photo, albeit here post is more crypticContinue reading “NOT SAFE FOR WORK (IF YOU’RE A DOG, ESPECIALLY ONE UNDER 2-1/2 a/k/a 18)”

Look at the vast influence I wield now. Just yesterday, I post something about the atrocities in Sudan and about a soon-to-be-released album to support the refugees in Darfur, and today, the Bush Administration actually comes out and does what many have been asking it to do for some time, calling the acts of theContinue reading “OBVIOUSLY THE WHITE HOUSE IS MONITORING THIS BLOG”

This should be making Bunsen’s day: “Has Ken Jennings Jeopardy! Run Ended?” 75 wins and $2.5 Million? That should teach Jeopardy! to not change their rules again and reinstate the original five-wins-and-your-out limitation. If this is true, can you imagine being the guy who beat him? Do you think that took so much mental effortContinue reading “IT’S ASS-KICKING TIME FOR ONE NEW MULTI-MILLIONAIRE”

This is great news. What is it about these heavily sarcastic yet wickedly clever “failed” Fox series that come back and finally receive their just due. First was Family Guy which it seemed like nobody but I watched when the episodes first premiered on Fox years ago, but since has achieved such a devoted followingContinue reading “NOW THIS IS A BUNNY I’VE ACTUALLY MISSED”

Everybody seems to be talking about today’s subway fuckups and awful morning commutes. And while our little bit of Frances may not come anywhere near as troubling as what Florida went through, surprise, surprise — I have my own story of a hellish morning. Door-to-door, home-to-work, on a good day with all the trains runningContinue reading “A FEW TIMES A YEAR, THE MTA REMINDS US ALL THAT WE’RE ITS BITCH”

President Bush would probably say, “Support Genocide in Sudan,” but what he would be speaking about is this new CD featuring System of a Down, Thievery Corporation, Gorillaz, Jurassic 5, Jill Scott, Bad Religion and others (21 Tracks in all) called Genocide in Sudan. (The CD is scheduled to ship on Oct. 15, but youContinue reading “SUPPORTING REFUGEES THROUGH MUSIC”

I’m truly baffled by anyone who can support this president. I’m not talking about the Republican party itself — although I don’t agree with most of their platform, I don’t think all Republicans are evil — but specifically this President. Sure, he can make fun of his verbal gaffes all he likes in a self-deprecatingContinue reading “POLITICS OF THE ABSURD”

I’m a huge proponent of DiVo. I could never justify to myself spending the amount necessary on a TiVo recorder as well as the subscription fee even if their programming interface is the best out there and the storage capacity is better. But when Time Warner finally started providing DVRs, a/k/a DiVos, to its customers,Continue reading “A MARRIAGE MADE IN HEAVEN?”

Tonight on The Sundance Channel is the first episode of The Al Franken Show, an edited one hour version of Franken’s three-hour Air America Radio program in the vain of Howard Stern’s E! show. I’m not anticipating such a scintillating 60 minutes of television, but it should be interesting to check-out. Howard Stern’s show worksContinue reading “WHO SAYS I ONLY TALK ABOUT TCM?

I spent much of this weekend avoiding the work/career/writing/etc. things I should have been doing in order to see a few movies (Hero, We Don’t Live Here Anymore, The Bourne Supremacy) and catch-up on my piles of newspapers and magazines. I remember being a much faster reader than I seem to be now. Whatever. IContinue reading “LOOKING FOR RAIDERS“
