Monday, August 16th, 2010You know how your mom used to say, “Sleep tight; don’t let the bedbugs bite?” Well, mom was giving you bad advice. According to an article in the NY Daily News, bedbugs like when you are still, especially in a movie theater. It is kind of ironic that in the most expensive city in the [...]
Goin’ to the movies!
Monday, August 16th, 2010I think I might go see The Expendables this week. Jason Statham is in it. What?
Postcards from the edge…
Monday, August 16th, 2010Mrs. Crankipants gave me a postcard she received from Wyatt while he is on vacation. Dear Mrs. Crankipants, I am having fun on my summer vacation. Would you believe Christina Hendricks is here?!?!? I spent the day making sure the ocean was safe for her, because you know, I’m in the serve and protect business. [...]
An end to a war
Sunday, August 15th, 2010There is only one God… On this date in 1945, Emperor Hirohito took to the airwaves to tell the Japanese that their country had surrendered. In reading about this, I learned that the emperor at that time in Japanese society was also considered to have divine status. I wonder he ever believed that he actually [...]
A little food for thought…
Sunday, August 15th, 2010I kind of see I’m going with a lazy Sunday kind of theme, today. How’s about some brunch? Breakfast? Well, in any case, taking this quiz will tell you about yourself based on your breakfast food choices. (Hmmmm….maybe I’ll have breakfast for dinner, tonight.) You Are Toast Old fashioned and a bit of a homebody, [...]
Easing into Sunday
Sunday, August 15th, 2010Almost every Sunday, I post a Sunday Song on my blog. Rather than post it here, I thought I’d post a brief video clip about some beauty found in the depths of the oceans. It is pretty cool. I hope you like it. Enjoy…(The film was not formatted to fit the YouTube “screen” very well, [...]
Hey, Hey, We’re The Monkeys
Saturday, August 14th, 2010Monkey and Bird is back this week with a new installment! Locally written and illustrated, it is the best comic about a gorilla you will ever read. (Those limited-edition Donkey Kong cartoons just sucked ass.) You can check out the new comic smell by clicking here.
S.W.A.K!!!
Saturday, August 14th, 2010When I was young, I learned from fairy tales that if I kissed enough frogs, eventually one would turn into a prince. Guess I haven’t kissed my quota…I digress. But think about it: Picking up a toad, looking it in the eyes (well, kind of), and placing a big fat smooch on it. What? You [...]
You Deserve A Break Today
Saturday, August 14th, 2010And you’ll get it, because I’m taking a few days off – from work, from the blog, and from life in general. I need to recharge my snark, and the only way to do that is to go off the radar. There’s no reason to fear, however, as I have a guest blogger lined up [...]
British Girl Punks Google
Friday, August 13th, 2010A British girl inadvertently pulled off the prank of a lifetime when she played dead in the street as a Google Street View car passed. Google captured the image of the “body” and posted it on the ‘net. Personally, I think this is the funniest thing I have ever seen. But I have a very [...]
