A conversation with Will that happened on Friday:
Will: Are you going to blow anything up on Sunday?
Shu: No, nothing really planned.
Will: Come on… What are you, some sort of communist?
Shu: If anything, I was going to just drink Pimm’s Cups all day. It’s a traditional drink of British aristocracy.
Will: < < Throws rain [...]

About two weeks ago, we were at a Thundercloud and saw a flyer for 69 Love Scenes, a local theater’s production based on Steven Merritt’s masterpiece 69 Love Songs. The play is 69 short sketches, each one based on a song from the albums. It takes place over three nights, with each [...]

There are many benefits to being married to a vet. If you’re a cat hoarder like me, free vet care is obviously at the top of the list. However, a close second though, is you have an encyclopedia of medical knowledge at hand.
Let’s say you’re at a drug store. I don’t have [...]

I believe this commercial launched Volkswagon’s Drivers Wanted ad campaign in the mid/late 90’s.

This is probably one of my favorite commercials ever. I think I was in my third year in college. This brilliantly targeted my demographic – catchy music (forget the fact that it’s about Roman Polanski), anti-establishment visuals, motivating [...]

1) Get really good at German to the point that I can read Kafka auf Deutsch.
2) Do a lot of statistics and [...]

Closest yet, but still not exact.
1 oz rum
2 oz ginger liqueur
1.5 oz Grenadine
1.5 oz lemon juice
Too ginger liqueury, but that was the only way I can mute the lemon juice flavor without making it too rummy. Things to try next: 1) Go back to equal parts rum and liqueur while dropping the lemon [...]

10 Nights.
26 2/3 Hours.
1600 Minutes.

This is We Landed On the Moon! and they are the best thing to enter my life since winning those zoom lenses from eBay this weekend. They will be the best thing that you’ve heard this week, too. I was listening to college radio last night, which can be either a treasure trove [...]

From mercurynews.com: “On ESPN, Chris Mortensen reported that ‘Mike Nolan fired himself,’ adding that Nolan ‘actually ended up consoling York, who was very emotional about it.’ That’s why the lie, and also why McCloughan was so angrily defensive about the Yorks during the KNBR interview with Ralph Barbieri: Nobody wants to say that in the [...]
