Yoko broke up the band.

January 22, 2010
Thumbnail image for Yoko broke up the band.

In an effort to try and get some kind of record of the art I’ve created over the years (much of the earlier stuff having gone out the door unphotographed), I emailed my friends and asked if they could take a photo of the Beatles drawing they’d asked me to draw years ago.
I don’t remember much about [...]

Are you with Coco?

Favre drinking game.

January 16, 2010
Thumbnail image for Favre drinking game.

I’m not a drinker, but if I was, Sunday would be the day. This is because of the “Favre 3:16” phenomenon that I had described earlier. This Sunday, the Vikings play an important game that they, according to several people I’ve asked, probably won’t win. Their victory or loss will have no effect on the [...]

Favre 3:16

Thumbnail image for Favre 3:16

While watching the Minnesota Vikings vs. the New York Giants today (which was painful to watch if you were a Giants fan), I couldn’t help but notice once again that the game announcers should probably just marry Brett Favre and get it over with.
They love him. Excessively.
The Vikings didn’t win today, according to the announcers. [...]

Tucking.

July 14, 2009

This is the living end.
Because journalists fear using the usual words and think that they must come up with new terms in order to keep their writing fresh, we have to suffer through word abuses such as the word “tucked.” For some reason, stories about celebrities visiting restaurants rarely contain the word “eat” or “eating.”
Celebrities, [...]

You are not a nerd.

September 21, 2008

I think, if I see another celebrity blurb where some no-brain celebrity claims to be a nerd…
Nerd is the new cool, I guess.
So here we have Megan Fox, who can’t quit talking about sex in just about every news story I regretfully stumble upon, telling us she’s the “biggest nerd.” And why is she nerdy?
I’m [...]

Dependent independent.

September 10, 2008

From this article, a quote from Brad Pitt:
My vision of an ideal couple is two strong, independent people sharing their lives together.
Um.
That just sounds odd.

Different norms.

May 5, 2008
Thumbnail image for Different norms.

The quote of the day comes from Warren Buffett, a man apparently full of hot air, who said that factories in China have different norms for working conditions than those in the U.S., and he won’t “tell the world how to run” their businesses.
Different norms.
That’s one way to put it.
If you’re the world’s richest man, [...]

Formaldehyde.

June 6, 2007

I saw the third installment of The Pirates of the Caribbean yesterday.
I’d forgotten that Keith Richards was in it.
Keith Richards is a lot of things.
Well-preserved, for one. Like beef jerky. Or the Iceman.

Celebrating Earth Day.

April 23, 2007

I celebrated Earth Day yesterday by drinking a cup of organic green tea in a Styrofoam cup during Sunday School, and then throwing the cup away in the garbage. The plastic garbage can was lined with a plastic bag.
Sheryl Crow thinks we ought to use less toilet paper and wear clothes with attachable cloth napkins. [...]
