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. My guess is [...]
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 best to [...]
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 literature classes. Interestingly enough, [...]
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 a [...]
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 laughter. I’ve dubbed [...]
After going through a bunch of lame books I’m now on a hot streak. I recently read Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk. I loved it. It’s a book that is written for my generation. It also happens to be a pretty glamorous movie, but the flick is nothing compared to the novel. You can get [...]
I’ve never voted. I’m not really proud of this but I’m not really bothered by it either. Chalk it up to apathy, thats the term people use to explain why more than half the country passes up on their right to vote. My parents and people of their generation seem to be appalled when I [...]
I’ve been doing the whole apartment hunting thing for the last six weeks in Manhattan and it just doesn’t seem to be working out all that well. I’m searching for a studio or one bedroom in a cool neighborhood with a space that has a bit of character/uniqueness and with private outdoor space being the [...]
I have a friend who is serving time in jail. He’s in the middle of a three year sentence at a correctional facility in upstate New York. He was involved in an unfortunate situation that had horrible and tragic consequences for everybody who was involved. It was one of those blink of the eye moments [...]
