Well aren’t you just SO clever?
I’ve been in many a Starbucks and sure the names of their sizes don’t really make much sense outside of their own RDF, but it isn’t that hard to figure it out. Their new displays even show the sizes of...

(Over) Heard in the Cafeteria
I am not making this up and I only include it as a reference to the previous entry. I went downstairs, not hungry for lunch today but craving for some Perrier with a slice of lemon. Yeah, I’m a snob,...
The dangers of aural pleasure
I defy most people to listen to “Rhythm of the Night” by DeBarge and not find themselves singing along with it by the end of the tune. If you don’t, then you either have no soul or you’re the kind...
Foggy Day in DC
Foggy, in a fog, haven’t the foggiest… all very appropriate phrases for today, for me at least. Oddly enough I had a good night’s sleep last night, though in terms of dreams it was very strange. Some very odd tales,...

5… MILLION dollars!
Apparently some couch potatoes are suing Microsoft for over 5 million dollars over the holiday Xbox Live outage. In the cosmos of frivolous lawsuits in which people apparently don’t realize that coffee may be hot and people can be clumsy,...
What’s really in the mind’s eye?
With the WGA holding firm, I’ve been able to catch up on a lot of saved episodes, Netflix DVDs and I’ve found other shows to watch, many of which are no longer in circulation. One of those is “Brain Story,”...
Oh yeah, I’ll slice your cheese… permanently.
I got into the office before 7:30 this morning, which unfortunately has me thinking about lunch already and subsequently food (which isn’t hard to do) and then I remember my Sur la Table gift card, so I peruse the site...
