“What Would Massah Like For Christmas?”

Ok, so I posted on less than half of the days in July. Here’s why:
Del Close Marathon
That only covers this last weekend, but it was fantastic. I’m going to try to recount the entire weekend, but there are so many inside jokes and great inspirations for jokes that it’s realistically going to cover about 70% […]

I have a lot of other stuff to write about that’s sitting in note form, but this is for immediate release -

Recap

Perhaps by default, this is becoming a weekday-only site. Perhaps it is because when I spend 50 hours a week in front of the computer at work, I don’t have as much incentive to do it at home - though I do, because I work on projects as well. Regardless, the pattern is showing that […]

Kinda Forgot The Title

Let me give you an excerpt from last night:

It’s Jordo, Rory, and me on the couch in Jordo’s apartment and I say to Rory “Do you have any idea how awkward this is for everyone except for you?” and Jordo nods her agreement and Rory is just staring blissfully ahead. It’s not exactly what you’re […]

Remember when I was writing about polar bears and other vaguely unrelated things?

The Real Orientation Experience

On a day when I was bad-mouthing the world so vehemently, it was rewarding to play midnight baseball for the first time in two months. Inspiring, invigorating, intoxicating (for some), and intriguing.
The Bureau (modified as always) topped The SGA 18-16, the most competitive game we’ve ever seen. The game began with a strong Bureau […]

The Lows And Lows Of Humanity

The state of the world right now can best be described as the montage that aliens (The Day The Earth Stood Still*), or robots (The Matrix), or other humans (Equilibrium, V For Vendetta) always use to tell people how horrible they are. War footage, famine, and unadulterated social falterings like obesity, racism, xenophobia, etc.
