I always wanted a job where it didn’t matter if you were half in the bag when you did your work. Today, I finally figured out how to accomplish that. All I do is find out where I need to apply to design shopping center parking lots. Seriously, how drunk are these guys? A new […]
I have made a significant change in my life in recent weeks. I don’t know if it’s for the better, but there’s no turning back now. I have ended my boycott of Best Buy. A little less than a year ago, I vowed to never go back there again. I got pretty crappy service their […]
So Elton John has decried the Internet as destroying society, suggesting that the Web should be shut down for five years (as if there’s a headquarters that can simply pull the plug) because “(t)he Internet has stopped people from going out and being with each other, creating stuff.” First off, the Internet has created so […]
I went out to pick up lunch for myself and some co-workers yesterday. There is this awesome small supermarket with a great sandwich section near our office thatI went to. I get to the back and get in line to order our food. They had two registers working. I grabbed a menu and decided what […]
My latest column is up at Hobo Trashcan – I write there every other Thursday. This week’s tackles the serious subject of bathroom etiquette.

Most times, I pride myself in standing up for everything that defines America. This time of year, however, I have to go against so many of my countrymen on one thing. I hate fireworks.
Some Web site did a list. Imagine the originality, huh? Anyway, the list recounts their choices for the Top 30 Villains in Sports Movies. A noble cause, I must say, but their choices are so misguided. Where do I start? First off, the Yankees from Bad News bears are 24th. 24th! How is that possible? […]
As I flipped through a newspaper at work the other day, a story caught my eye. Apparently, a group of people got together and swam across the Chesapeake Bay. “Don’t they know there’s a perfectly good bridge right there,” I said to a co-worker. Now I know this is an annual event which raises money […]
Two bad bits of gambling news this week. First off, two West Virginia counties went to the polls to decide whether table games could join slot machines at race tracks there. One measure passed, one failed. Naturally, the one that failed is less than two hours from me and the one that passed is five […]
