I came home to find two stations still churning out the old signal. One had a creepy end of the world, ghost channel feel, explaining what had happened to the signal, the other was All My Children, which also has a creepy end of the world feel. I guess I’ll be watching a lot more […]

Goodbye Analog.
Tonight my television will go fuzzy as analog signals are switched off across the country. My wife Kitty and I don’t necessarily have anything against TV, but for some reason we just didn’t scurry to get our converter box when the coupon arrived in the mail. Eventually it expired and we made no move to […]

Instead of writing a thoughtful, insightful, informative blog post that includes some anecdote about my hazy past followed by wry commentary and a link to a current news item about food, I’ve decided to post a video of a guy in a banana costume scaring the living hell out of people. You’ll like it better […]

Thank You, Mr. Ford.
Today as I was frantically searching for something interesting to post about, I found something even better: Harrison Ford. The above web ad was so compelling, that even though I had no idea what Mr. Ford was supporting, I had to pause… “Wait. Harrison Ford supports it? The Harrison Ford? Then, you’re right, there is […]
Ice Cream or Monster?!
The other day I was called into the lair of Wm.™ Steven Humphrey—yes, I think lair is the best characterization of his office—and found him, face awash in the slight glow from his computer, feverishly scanning something on his screen. “Hold on a second,” he said. I stopped in my tracks, knowing full well the […]
Enter the Voodoo Burger
Today I ate this for lunch: That’s a glazed Voodoo doughnut, split in half, concealing a ground hamburger patty topped with a slice of cheddar cheese. If that description reminds you of the Luther Burger, then you are truly an aficionado of fucked-up food. But whereas the Luther Burger is a cheeseburger using two Krispy […]
