AA: interlude

May 6th, 2011 No Comments

Hey folks, likely no posts from me until I finish off the dive course. Will be busy basically all day tomorrow (and in no mood to write after) then out on the boat for 3 days / 2 nights. Back to regularly scheduled tales of me embarassing myself soon (which shouldn’t be hard to get [...]

Earworms (Commercial Edition)

August 13th, 2010 No Comments

In the vein of the earlier earworm post I have a more important question… Is there anything more insidious than that very special brand of commercial that finds a nook and simply won’t leave your head for hours or days after you hear it? United Furniture Warehouse has even had campaigns based around singing the [...]

A father for us all…

July 23rd, 2010 No Comments

The other day I was at the drugstore trying to choose a birthday card for my team to give to our boss when I noticed a familiar face peeking out from the kids birthday section.

People with zero chance of becoming Nobel laureates

March 25th, 2009 No Comments

This is absolutely one of my favorite things that have been sent to me in a while, a set of 41 terrible science projects. I’m sure a good chunk of these are fake or shopped, but some are all too real. Honestly, you have to pity the elementary school/junior high science teachers. Who doesn’t remember [...]

The Album Cover meme…

March 23rd, 2009 No Comments

As usual I’m weeks late to the party on one of these, but here’s mine. The idea behind this meme is that you combine random info from randomized sources to create a CD/Album cover for your fictitious band. Ikinci Qala brings a sort of Ladysmith Black Mambazo vibe to mind and the album title/artwork meshed [...]

A Kwazy Kwanzaa… and a solemn and dignified Ramadan to you.

March 20th, 2009 No Comments

Sandra Lee… In my American foodie brethren her very name evokes the kind of disgust usually reserved for Rachel Ray’s spouting EVOO (followed by an explanation) or by College_Student_04029812 asking for CHEEP FOOD IDEAZ 4 DORM PLZ for the millionth time! Those of us lucky enough to live north of the 49th have thankfully avoided [...]
