This is brilliant

Louis CK doing a bit of cranky old George Carlin-style complaining.

The Wrestler

I’ve been waiting to check out the trailer for Darren Aronofsky’s new movie The Wrestler for a while, and the trailer makes it look like it’s gonna be a good’n. I hope it plays at a place that has good popcorn

GW Cookies!

I guess Seattle magazine finally put themselves online, which is cool because I can link to the article where the cookies that Gretchen makes were given ‘best in show’ in their cookie category.
I get them occasionally when I’ve had a bad day or she accidently hits me in the eye. In any case, even if [...]

Last Chinese Democracy Post

I’ve probably dedicated more posts to this crazy fucking album on my blog than anything else, but I have to say, that having listened to it this morning streaming on Myspace, that is does, in fact, rock my socks. There are some weird choices and inexplicable songs, but it actually exceeded my expectations, and I [...]

A few bits and pieces

I tried my hand at creating a LittleBigPlanet level yesterday and while I wish the controls were more, well, controllable, I was able to finally create a flaming bus shaped object that would trigger falling bombs as I drove. It’ll probably take me three months to create my level idea, which loosely based on the [...]

Dogfish Head

I came across a great article in the New Yorker today about the owner of Dogfish Head brewery. I enjoyed Dogfish Head 120 minute ale on election night as every drink was a wonderful punch in the throat.
I’m interested in trying the Palo Santo Marron (made in $250k Paraguan “Holy Wood” barrels) and the Midas [...]

While experimenting with creating bacon straws (a not unworthy goal) an group of [...]

I currently own a 1971 Volkswagen Super Beetle named Greta. I drove the car for about a year and a half at the end of high school, and she is cursed.
Many folks have heard that at various times she leaked gas, or wouldn’t start or wouldn’t turn off or [...]

Relationship Deathwatch Day 2,201

Basement.
I wake up to the sound of a hideous screetching cry. It is my cat friend, and her belly tells her it is time to eat. I grab a handfull of comforter and rip it off of my lady friend sleeping next to me in order to lower the temperature of her body just enough [...]

It’s not over…my friends

Bush has been laying pretty low the last few months, scuttling out infrequently to cause the stock market to crash or congratulate Obama and his “bride” and I guess in all the excitement of Obama becoming president we’re sort of missing some of things he’s hoping to do with his last few months in office. 
Like, [...]
