Hello, Pretty-Pretty…
I love the smell of kitsch and PR in the morning! I had dinner with Moose last night and bad movies came up, as they always will, and while he and I are a bit at odds over whether Barbarella...

Drinking More HD Kool-Aid
Against my better judgement, but in the face of really crappy HD DVR (not to mention customer service) from RCN, I bought an HD TiVo. They’re running a special that includes lifetime product service and it’s comparable to what I...
Never gonna make you cry…
The phenomenon of the Rickroll is truly going from cute to mega. Noticed on Kris’ shared feeds from Gothamist: Meet the Mets, Rickroll the Mets Thousands of Internet denizens–including some Mets–don’t want to ever give Rick Astley up, so they...
Don’t need it, still want it.
I’m pretty impressed by this 36-piece set from My Pro Kitchen. At $280, it seems a bit steep, but if it’s truly professional quality, it’s worth it. About all that it suffers from is not being “pretty” but it looks...
Seriously y’all, I’m punching a bear in the face!
See here and here for some comic-scans context from The Order, but doesn’t that sound like something Paula Deen would say? “Punching a bear in the face.” might just have to become my standard response to what’s up? Just had...

6 Years Ago, The World Ended
Pardon me while I geek for a moment… If you’re not reading FreakAngels by Warren Ellis and Paul Duffield, shame on you. If you are reading it and you haven’t told me, double shame on you! It’s a weekly online...

Gary Gygax, one of the co-creators of the Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game, died Tuesday morning at his home in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, according to Stephen Chenault, CEO of Troll Lord Games. Gygax designed the original D&D game with Dave...
comics: Heel, toe, heel, toe…
I hope you’re already reading xkcd, but if not, you really should. Especially the geeks and most especially the math geeks. 🙂 This one is more for the current and former band geeks out there, and I just kinda lost...
George Clooney asks, “Why is nobody f**king me!?”
As much as it pains me to ever say that Jimmy Kimmel has talent, he really produced a winner. Apparently a running joke on his show is that at the end of the program he bumps Matt Damon, saying that...
