Actually…

The last twenty seconds of the new Iron Man movie (past the credits if you missed it) mark the beginning of the end of the Marvel movie empire. OK, maybe that is a bit harsh, but it does signal the theatrical adoption of a marketing strategy that I recommended, much to my own chagrin, exactly [...]

I have been spending a fair amount of time writing restaurant reviews that I never end up publishing anywhere. In an effort to prevent this activity from being a complete waste of time, I have decided to publish them on the blog in the Foodie category.
I apologize in advance as most of you have never [...]

I wanted to just take a minute and wish everyone a very merry Christmas, if you so chose to acknowledge and/or honor the holiday.
We do Christmas big around here, food-wise at least, and at 8PM I’m stuff. Cinnamon rolls first thing, then some ham (of course), raw oysters straight out of the shell, cheese grits [...]

I just saw something in front of my house that my being is forcing me to comment on. A middle aged balding man driving down the road wearing a Member’s Only style black windbreaker, arm hanging out the open window of his late model powder blue Volvo station wagon, Bob Seger blaring from the radio [...]

I really hate reposting popular Internet items, but I keep going back to this one to see which way she spins.
Apparently, I am right brained but I can make her spin to her left by reading some text on the page. Mood and time of day don’t seem to have any effect.

Rereading some of my blog posts, my random thoughts in the shower don’t seem to be all that random. I makes me recall my sophomoric wonderings as to whether the human mind is physiologically capable of being random.
As such thoughts inevitably hinge on the quantumelectrical nature of the brain, I shall avoid this line [...]

Reading through many of my blog post, I see prolific use of the phrase “i.e” in addition to its literal translation “that is”. It is a habit I picked up a long time ago, probably when I took Latin. I have even been known to use it in spoke rants.
I heard someone today refer to [...]

I have been slammed this week and frankly just don’t have the presence of mind to write anything worth reading. So I have resorted posting a video of my own family’s creation that always makes me laugh. That is me cackling in the background.

Have a fun long weekend!

I was told today that I shouldn’t apologize so much in my blog, but that I should take a stand and stick by it right or wrong. I am sorry, but I am trying to adopt a more civil tone in my Internet discourse to be heard above the din of flaming.
As long as I [...]

I have really been trying to prevent my blog from becoming too introvertive (or rather neurotic), but I couldn’t help it tonight. Part of the reason I started this thing is to become a better writer. I leave it up to the reader to judge whether that is happening. To accomplish this, I wanted to [...]
