lord of the oscar

I never really get into the Oscar events. It’s the same shit every year. The show is boring, self-indulgent, way too long, and way too pretentious. Billy Crystal totally sucks as a host and a comedian. Tonight’s intro movie was lousy, usually it’s the best part of the show. The only part of the thing […]

Cat with Hands

Cat with Hands is an amazingly disturbing and scary short film, but really, really well done. Awesome work. You all need to go see this.

Woke up this mornin’

…and got myself a gun.
That’s right. They’re finally back. I can’t wait, but next Sunday will mark the beginning of season 5. Fuck Sex and the City. The Sopranos are back.
Check out the site. The photo is incredible. Read more for the full lyrics to the song…

Two Tony’s

So, what did everyone think about the first episode? I had mixed feelings. I do, however, enjoy the additional cast members including Robert Loggia and Steve Buscemi. Just curious to see what you have to say.

I feel like a woman

One of the better Super Bowl commercials that they simply didn’t play enough. I saw it tonight and just wanted to share it with you if you haven’t seen it. I think it’s pretty damn funny. I hope this link works and you enjoy it.

How to Crap at Work

Since Chris is usually talking about his balls or shitting himself, i give you this……
We’ve all been there but don’t like to admit it. We’ve all kicked Back in our cubicles and suddenly felt something brewing down below. As much as we try to convince ourselves otherwise, the WORK POOP is inevitable. For those who […]

Great Movie that makes you puke

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is a great movie, great skript, great cast, great story, great acting and the worst camera EVER. 108 min of hand camera. Not a single shot with a tripod. And the cameraman wasn’t even trying to keep the camera steady. And after 50 min or so, my brain and […]

terrible blogging

Sorry about my lack of posts for a couple weeks (3 to be exact)… Things have been out-of-control busy at home and at work. Blogging was moved lower on the priority list than usual. I am going to be better. Luckily my friends chip in with good stuff - especially the “how to crap at […]

epson r-d1

This will be my next big purchase. Epson announced this beautiful analog-looking 6.1 MP digital camera. It has Cosina optics with a true rangfinder built-in. It is the first digital camera to be compatible with Leica L- and M-mounts*2 lenses, some of the best in the world. If Witold reads this, I’d like him to […]

translucent concrete

This may be the first architectural/construction “technology” that I have been excited about, ever. 27 year old Aron Losonczi has invented Litracon, a new form of concrete that allows light to pass through, while retaining all of the load bearing properties of true concrete. A new type of fiber optic material is added to the […]

flight attendant

David Neeleman routinely serves as a flight attendant on board JetBlue flights around the country. He listens carefully to customers as he serves their complimentary beverages, and in-flight light snack. He remembers what they tell him. Why is that so special?
He’s the fucking CEO. He is the head of the only airline that, in 2001 […]

four free dogs, one monkee

This entry was recently removed from craigslist, but luckily the editor over at Gawker copied it first. God, I love craigslist. I wish I could contact the guy about the monkee. See below:
I have four free dogs. Two of them are large sized, about up to my waist. One is brown and the other sort […]

Carl

One of the smartest guys I have ever known was named Carl from Bangor, Maine. He was my roommate and good friend through much of my time in college at RIT in Rochester, NY. He was a good guy, a mechanical AND electrical engineering genius, a big partier, and a stoner to end all stoners. […]

smoke

Carl grew up on a potato farm in Bangor, Maine. For those of you unfamiliar with Bangor, it is in the northern, eastern most point on the northern, eastern most state in this country. I have never been there, but it has got to suck. Growing up on a farm did have some perks though, […]

acid

Carl was a stoner. He cultivated a marijuana forest in the basement of the house we rented in college. He smoked every morning and every night, before and after class. He drank many beers, and the best recipe he ever cooked was his mom’s “drunken chicken.” I guess even his dinner was fucked up.
One time, […]

b of the bang

This unbelievable sculpture is now under construction in a stadium in Manchester, England. It will be the largest sculpture in all of the UK. It is simply incredible. Take a look at where it is mounted. It is on like a 30 degree angle, I don’t even know how. The construction is obviously very complicated. […]

we love de subs!

If any of you have wondered where those “We love de subs” rat/gerbil/humans from the Quiznos commercials are from, you need look no further. The guys over at rathergood.com have the sickest sense of humor. They invented the rat-things, officially called “Spongmonkeys”, who originally sang about loving the moon, now sing about subs. Watch the […]

busy

I have been so busy for the last few weeks, culminating in today’s 10 hour debacle or meetings, ohone calls, functional specs, wireframes, and website and email launch. I stopped to fantasize about having a TiVo for my life. I was stunned to realize that I can’t decide whether it would be better to pause […]

birthday

OK, so this is it. It’s my birthday again. I’ll be 31 on Saturday, April 3rd. If any of you came to my party and stayed late enough last year, you’ll remember that there was a wet t-shirt contest at 3am. We plan on doing even better this year. How?
Well let’s start with the fact […]
