Day 11:

I should have been to bed an hour ago. I have to be up in 4 hours. Therefore: this blog sucks. Sorry. Here, watch me on Wipeout again..

Love,

Day 10:

I swear I just looked at the clock a second ago and it was 9:15. But as I look now, it’s almost midnight? Why does time pass so quickly these days?

It’s not even like it was when I was a kid where time would pass quickly at recess but slooooooooow during class. Time just zips by all the time now! Doesn’t matter if I’m doing something I want to do or something I hate doing. Time just flashes by.

“Ugh…this root canal sucks! WHAT? It’s been five hours already?! Well, I guess it’s like they say…Time flies when someone’s drilling a hole in your skull!”

I think I may be time traveling at a rate slightly faster than normal time! Quick call Doc Brown, or Bill and Ted, or even (shudder) Dr. Who! I don’t care who you call I just want to be able to do more than one thing after dinner before it’s midnight!

You suck, Time!

Day 9:
I was on Facebook today and confronted with this editorial cartoon.

That’s all well and good. I assumed the message was never forget or take for granted the sacrifices others made for your sweet life. A good message, to be sure. But then I made the classic internet mistake of reading the comments under the photo. Some people clearly gleaned a different message than I did… Read the rest of this entry »

This week, the boys say goodbye to Steve Jobs and along the way talk tech, movies, and tv. Plus a Monday Night TANfight pitting Damien from The Omen against Kevin from Home Alone!

Day 8:

So the other day I’m at the store and I buy some instant brown rice (Yeah, that’s how I roll, son). Nothing too fancy, just the store brand.

Unfortunately I have thrown away the box…otherwise I would have gotten a better picture of these instructions.

If you can’t tell, that first line (circled in red) actually says, “Open box.” NOW you tell me! All this time I’ve been trying to cook the rice like this… Read the rest of this entry »

Day 7:

As a comedian, I run into some really funny people. Every so often I meet a comedian that I enjoy so much that I want the world to know. So during this blog-filled October (Blogtober), I’ll be highlighting a wonderful comic each Friday in a feature called TGIF: (This Guy/Gal Is Funny). These won’t be long essays or anything, just a little recommendation on some people to go to when you want to laugh. This week, I want to draw your attention to Brian Scolaro.

Day 6:

So Kiki asked in a recent comment what my thoughts were on Avatar coming to Walt Disney World. Normally, that’s the kind of thing I’d do on a Kingdom Comedy video, but sadly I just don’t have the time these days. Also, I doubt we’ll talk much about it on the podcast since the other two probably don’t really care one way or the other. So I thought I’d give my thoughts here.

Day 5:

Poetry is a way to express complex emotions that are hard to get across using simple prose. Poems often use odd language to help illustrate abstract concepts. Pop songs, on the other hand, tend to rhyme…and that’s pretty much it. They make little sense when held up to scrutiny. That’s why I started this series of blogs where we take a closer look at some song lyrics. This time we take a look at Juice Newton’s “Queen of Hearts” Read the rest of this entry »

Day 4:

Despite my big win many weeks ago, Cracked still feels the need to ignore my genius. It happened again in the photoplasty contest Fictional Characters on a Budget. The idea being what if your favorite fictional characters had to get by with less (like the rest of us these days) Here are the gems Cracked passed up on…

This would make it so much easier for kids to dress up like Superman. Read the rest of this entry »

Day 3:

I loves me some Jamba Juice. I only go once, maybe twice, a month so I always order the same thing (Citrus Squeeze). I should probably try something new but I don’t want to take any chances that my one Jamba trip for the month will not be delicious. I like what I like. Plus, their ads don’t do a great job of convincing me to try something new…
