Eva Longoria Let’s just pretend I made some witty, womanizing comment here. I’m too tired.You know, not that I really need a reason to post another picture of Eva Longoria. Really, I could just give up ranting now and look at her, but I actually do have a point here. And I’ll get to it…

on the price of video on demand…

Must see Originally uploaded by loungin. so, I had been meaning to address this issue for the last couple of weeks. I even mentioned to rmitz that I was thinking of ranting about it when he brought up the same topic a couple weeks ago. What would you pay for the ability to download your…

on being famous for nothing…

Ashlee Simpson Not for nothing, but that’s a tight look, I ain’t mad at that So it’s been a while since I talked about the folly of celebrity. I hadn’t really had anything to say. But I’m sitting here watching the season premiere to Saturday Night Live in the vain hope that Kanye West says…

on stopping the signal…

Serenity Good ride, but it’s over nowOk, so this one may very well cost me a friend or two. So there are a lot of readers of this blog who proudly self identify as geeks. I suppose, in some respects, I fit that mold. In others, I really don’t. To look at some of my…

God Created Mav Originally uploaded by chrismaverick. so beststephi pointed this article out to me earlier today.

on me being the original feminist…

Mr. Tree Photo Credt: Paul Chinn. So back when all of the rigamarole started over whether or not gay marriage should be legal or should there be a constitutional amendment banning it I advocated an alternative solution to the problem. I said I wanted to outlaw marriage altogether. Gay, straight and otherwise. I then explained…

why must the forces of nature conspire to make me hate everything I love? I want to like football, really I do. Football is one of the very few great joys left in my life. I don’t ask for much. I just want to sit down and relax while drinking a beer and watching forty-some-odd…

on football and waffles…

I will now take a break from the regularly scheduled hurricane coverage for this special announcement: Football season starts today, and Steeler season starts on Sunday. As per custom I will be serving breakfast (probably waffles) at my place an hour or so before the game (11:30-noonish). We will then be congregating to watch the…

on criticsm from a college drop out…

I just want you to know, on the extremely off chance that you ever read this, Kanye West, you are my fucking hero… My favorite part is where NBC issued an official statement apologizing for a celebrity having an unapproved opinion. Assholes. Its not about whether or not you agree with Kanye. I just want…

modern day ettiquette…

So a question for the ladies, and for the guys too, I suppose: so at lunch with a female coworker I had a discussion about how much engagement rings should cost. I wondered if it was still important to have an engagement ring cost 2 months salary. Without getting too personal, I’m just going to…
