So the second X-men movie comes out on Friday… anyone interested in: 1) gathering at my place for a private showing of the first one tonight in the basement theater? (perhaps I can even be inclined to pick up X-men 1.5 on my way home from work today) 2) getting together for the new one…

Good Lord… someone gave Pat Sajak his own talk show again. Soon as I get home I’m going to start stockpiling rations and weapons in the basement. ARMAGEDDON IS COMING! REPENT! REPENT!

All bow down before the marketing genius that is Тату. I just finished watching their new video for Not Gonna Get It. Ummm… wow… Apparently someone just completely knows how to market directly to me. The pitch meeting probably went something like this: “Ok, let’s see… we want to appeal to the 20-something negro male,…

so my roommates have decided that silly things like occupational conferences and sibling weddings are more important than celebrating the occasion of my birth, so its possible Jammy Jam is going to be moved slightly. It will be within a week of my birthday, but it may be before my birthday. Right now, the possibilities…

on the curse of TiVo

Sometimes I wonder about the great things that I am missing because of TiVo. I happened to not fast forward through a set of commercials tonight, and I was lucky enough to see the BEST COMMERCIAL EVER! Coors Light: Ode to the Wingman. I’d link to but it doesn’t seem to be on the Coors…

Ok, so honestly I’m not starving at the moment, but lately I haven’t been all that artistic either. I aim to change all that. First things first, I have finally added danitapgh’s portrait. That brings the photosketch series to seven. In case anyone hasn’t seen the others, they are: Cheryl, Mathilde, Regina, Diane, Jennifer and…

so sui66iy in his recent strive for weenieness posted that he had calculated his Ecological Footprint. Lots of people followed suit. I was bored and decided to give it a shot myself. Hmmm… I only hit 7.4. 72% of the average. I really expected that to be higher (and it might be 6.6, I said…

So, as I mentioned earlier, it was reported today that Nina Simone is dead at 70. What I didn’t know at the time was that last week, Luther Vandross had a stroke at 52 years of age. I am suddenly fearing for the human race as there is now the very real possibility that no…

“Look, I’m a team player. I’m all about getting things done. I’m willing to bend over and take it up the ass for the team here… just don’t ask me to smile and don’t ask me to pretend it was my idea.” hmmm… I wonder if they’ll call me in the morning.
