March 20, 2012 By 1 Comment

The Dodgers are insane

February 27, 2012 By 2 Comments

  And in related news, rape victims are partially to blame.       First things first, I am NOT a Dodgers fan.  Nor am I a Giants fan.  I grew up watching the Angels and have long loved the Cubs.  This isn’t a story about baseball, but about ultra-wealthy greedy people who try to [...]

Other priorities

Secret Agent Man

October 21, 2011 By 1 Comment

  Grab a cocktail and enjoy.               The daily grind is much quieter now that Jesus moved to a location that should triple his tailoring business.  There are times I like it and times I don’t. When I remember the times he rolled back in after work with a [...]

Subway and Double D’s

October 6, 2011 By 3 Comments

Light beer commercials are lame

September 14, 2011 By 6 Comments

“Stay thirsty, my friends.” The Most Interesting Man In The World         Lets be honest, domestic light beers all basically taste the same.  It doesn’t matter if it’s Coors Light, Miller Lite or Bud Light, you’re pretty much getting the same crappy taste for the same low price.  As I heard Adam [...]

September 12, 2011 By 1 Comment

I’ll have you know, sir

September 4, 2011 By 12 Comments

I pity your children. I’m not changing the name of the person who e-mailed me because, well, because I don’t really want to.  Sorry if that makes me a dick, but he e-mailed me knowing full well I was a blogger.  So, if you think about it, it’s really his own fault.  Yeah.  Sweet. If [...]

White dudes can’t dance

September 1, 2011 By 10 Comments

Chastity Bono had her front door permanently sealed, which means Chaz Bono is a dude.         I’m not a racist.  Nor am I sexist, homophobic or anything else that would suggest I don’t like people based on their skin color, religion or any other shit like that.  If I don’t like someone [...]
