It’s…. Very quick side note here before I really get rocking on this. I was fortunate to finally purchase the complete (or complet) Monty Python’s Flying Circus…all forty-five episodes on stunning DVD quality of the original broadcasts with all the warts and flaws. So when I started out with “It’s…”, I, of course, thought of [...]

Ah what fun it is to contemplate your own candy bar. Strong Bad is at it again and the results are, as almost always, funny. Creepy Marshie makes an appearance in an easter egg, making him creepier than ever. This made me think of old candy bars that made their appearance to satisfy the craze [...]

More brilliance from the madmen (and madwomen) at McSweeney’s, this time an office memo about Career Days. My personal favorite to this one happens to be TAKE AN UNRESTRAINED ZOMBIE TO WORK DAY, but I have a soft heart for TAKE YOUR EVIL TWIN TO WORK DAY as well. I’m continually impressed with those guys [...]
Seems like there’s always something going on in the last couple of months and now things have finally, mercifully slowed down. No longer am I not home on any given night. Besides hockey and bowling, I am at home. Bowling only has about five weeks left and hockey maybe goes on for another six weeks. [...]
