I’m back from a week in paradise in Zihuatanejo, Mexico, and I am tanned, relaxed, and inspired, and testing out my brand new MacBook Pro. I thought I’d share this excellent video I stumbled on this morning. Live by it. Everyone Must See This! – video powered by Metacafe I’ll write more about my trips [...]
Last week or the week before, Beck pulled off one of the best Saturday Night Live musical performances in recent memory. He may be a Scientologist, but he’s an incredibly talented nerd. This video of the performance speaks for itself. Enjoy. [thanks jay.]
I am back in Dubai after one of the best vacations of my life. 2 1/2 weeks away from work is the longest I have ever spent out of the office (while still actually having a job) in 10 years of working. I was in London, Mexico, and NYC, and couldn’t have enjoyed myself more. [...]
Ok, I want to be perfectly clear. What you are about to listen to is one of the funniest, most genius things I have ever heard, I was skeptical at first, because very few “telemarketer pranks” ever make me laugh. This guy, Tom Mabe, is getting pretty famous over his brand of humor though, and [...]
I am sure it is starting to seem like I only blog about videos on YouTube. Of course, that is MOSTLY true, and YouTube just keeps getting and better. The next version of this site will have a section, like Links, dedicated just to external videos. For now, we’ll continue to have to deal with [...]
I am so sorry that this is another YouTube video. But I just laughed out loud so hard I scared myself. This is the dumbest motherfucker on god’s green earth – the worst burglar ever, caught on tape. I can barely believe this is real. You HAVE to see this right now. Right now. I [...]
A guy known as “Stoney” sent me an email today with the following hilarious story: ————Email starts———— Dr. Schambaugh, of the University of Oklahoma School of Chemical Engineering, Final Exam question for May of 1997. Dr. Schambaugh is known for asking questions such as, “why do airplanes fly?” on his final exams. His one and [...]
Sorry, more YouTube. I can’ stop. Too fucking funny. She SHOULD be working. [via gigglesugar.]
Johnny Cash kicks ass even in the afterlife. The video for his latest single, “God’s Gonna Cut You Down” (from the album American V: A Hundred Highways) is saturated with cool celebs, and basically freakin fantastic. They actually asked me to be in this video, but I turned them down. I was busy. The other [...]
When I was in NY just a little over a week ago, I was able to squeeze in Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan on the afternoon of the day it opened. Like just about everyone else, I LOVED the movie. I’ve been a big fan of the Ali [...]
I consider this Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster motivation for finding a way to get rich. Quite possibly the most beautiful car on the road. [via autoblog.]
I don’t have time to write about these too much, but I managed to select, edit, and upload 48 Zihua pictures onto Flickr for your viewing pleasure. Zihuatanejo, Mexico is absolutely stunning. I highly recommend it. Kathlene and Kevin, who got married there and planned the whole thing, can be seen in some of the [...]
Anyone who has every worked with me would know that I LOVE the whiteboard. I can use it equally effectively to draw a long timeline, or draw a caricatures of my co-workers. I like the way whiteboard markers feel, and I like how easily I can “edit” as I go. My skills are nothing compared [...]
It’s great to have Flickr and all, but I am utterly unimpressed with all the options for embedding photos on this website. As I am sure you have noticed, periodically some new thumbnails appear in the sidebar indicating there are new photos. Unfortunately, Flickr does not publish an RSS feed for the new sets as [...]
WTF!!?? Listen, there is no need to explain to me that I am a big guy. I know it. I wear a size XL. But what is the deal with my disproportionately large neck? I mean seriously now. It’s like my face is growing straight out of my chest. I have been wearing XL sized [...]
I kind of stopped collecting my “great emails” for a while. Mostly because I posted all the good ones. I have something new, but it is just a short response to something I sent. Basically, the email I sent is too explicit for this website. But the response is classic. I won’t tell you who [...]
