Today was 9/11. It is the sixth anniversary since the tragic and fateful day. For many, the wounds aren’t as raw but the memories of that day are still powerful. I found myself thinking about 9/11 a lot today. My big sister wrote an email to Courtney and I this morning. […]
I’ve been giving some thought to the idea of partaking in a charitable cause. Occasionally, I will attend a fund raiser or donate a few bucks to a friend’s cause but neither really does much to elevate my own sense of altruism. I’ve been working tremendously hard over the last few months. I […]
For the last few years I’ve been employing a liberating hair style. Basically, I let my curly hair grow for five or six months until it is completely unruly and becomes a total jewfro. Then I buzz it all off.
I’m at about that point in the cycle where I’m sick of my […]
In recent weeks my big sister Lisa mentioned that she wants to blog. I guess she’s been reading the “Yo Bro” blog and it got her thinking that she could do it. Lisa has the tendency to blurt things out and not follow through so I didn’t pay much attention to her. […]
I got a good chuckle watching this video of myself. My big sister and I spent countless hours keeping ourselves occupied with this new toy (camcorder). I’m glad we did because these kinds of clips are precious. We usually played some variation of the interview show and it was always about sports. […]
Until last week I didn’t really get the whole bachelor party thing. I failed to grasp it from the “purely idealistic thinker” angle that greatly contributes to my overall weirdness. It seemed like the ritual was a pre-marital crisis for the bachelor as he sewed his wild oats. Meanwhile, his friends do their […]
I lost my cell phone on Saturday night. Left it in a freakin cab. I realized about 10 minutes afterwards and did the whole song and dance thing of calling the phone one zillion times. No dice. That never works.
Like most technologically dependent drones, I’m a pathetic shell of my glorious self without my […]
I love to write. It’s part of the reason why I started this blog. I’ve been writing in some capacity since high school. Back then I wrote for the school newspaper (I was also captain of the math team!). In college I kept a personal journal and took a bunch of […]
I do not want to get a haircut in 2007. I think about this very often. On a slow day I probably think about not cutting my hair at least 10 times. I realize this is stupid and wish I would think about world peace or self-enlightenment or get-rich-quick schemes instead.
I don’t have […]
My Aunt Gail is a laughter coach by trade. She teaches laughter classes in her neighborhood in Harrisburg, PA. Aunt Gail believes in the physical act of laughter. She wants people to laugh, even without the aid of jokes or humor. When people begin to do this the simulated laughter becomes stimulated […]
