Podcasts Rule
I've never said out loud... I love podcasts. I still haven't really said it out loud since I wrote it, but that doesn't make it any less of a sincere statement... I wouldn't say I was a late-comer to the podcast party... But I wasn't an early adopter. Sure, I've been watching and listening a few specific programs for years, but lately it's become a bigger portion of my life that I take with me daily thanks to the wondrous iPhone. Kinda like having the radio on on the background, but it keeps my mind turning a little better than music ...
Mad Men Theme
Mad Men is easily in my top 5 of television shows currently in production. It's no Lost, and I'm not sure where it stack up against Big Bang Theory or How I Met Your Mother. Definitely top five for me though... Something has bugged the he'll outta me since I first saw the show... I recognized the drum loop used in the theme song, and I couldn't identify where. It bugged the hell outta me every time we saw the intro... Until a few days ago when my iTunes on shuffle hit something... The drum loop that had been in the ...
New Link – Black and WTF
To the few of you, I've got a links section that I use as my personal home page as the links comprise a large portion of where I go as my staples online. So I'm gonna post anytime I make an addition to that page, because it's gotta be pretty good for me to put it there. What got me consider a new link today? A Tumblr photography blog called Black and WTF. I'm a photographer that likes the weird and funny from time to time as I like things that make me laugh or think WTF for a second...
Book Review: A Dangerous Man by Charlie Huston
So this was the first book I read 100% on my iPhone. Kinda interesting experience... I'm not sure how much of the formatting was changed to suit the delivery mechanism. I'll have to give the book a look to see next time I'm at a book store. So apparently, this is the third book in a series by Huston. Oops... That explains the numerous references to backstory that seemed oddly brief. I read it anyway. I needed something to wash the taste of Cormac McCarthy's The Road out of my mind. Good? Sometimes. It's never bad, but not great either. It's a work ...
Initials are so BS
You know what really put me over the edge? Driving to work, I'm on the not so nice side of town. One morning I had to stop and get some coffee at a Starbucks along the way, and across the street there's a McDonalds. I looked over at just the right time to see this guy getting into his rusted, dented, minivan... He looked like a strung out Chris Elliot wearing sweat shorts, a zip up hoodie not zipped... And... A CK shirt. It's been something that's been growing for awhile, but it really came out in the recent trip to ...
Book Review: The Road by Cormac McCarthy
I don't remember the when or who, but I remember hearing good things about The Road by Cormac McCarthy. I saw it on the Costco book tables and decided to give it a shot since I was in need of something to read. I'd seem the movie trailers, but knew nothing more about the plot than it was a post apocalyptic story about a man and a boy. Now that I read it cover to cover I'm going to make a proclamation about this book... Don't bother with the book because watching a few minute trailer is more fulfilling than reading these ...
Upersay
The super bowl came and went... Colts lost... Saints won. I'm not that upset, but a lot of people around here certainly are. Few things about the whole things from my little experience. One, I'm sort of happy the Saints won partially for the whole good for New Orleans part. But I'm more glad the Saints won because if the Colts would have won, I'd get a lot of crap for being from Indy next time I'm down in New Orleans. After seeing LSU fans rail against Notre Dame fans a few years ago, they are pretty brutal to their face. Another thing ...
