I’m considering making this TMBG song my new theme. Sing along if you know the words…
[Audio clip: view full post to listen]
Oh no, no, I never go to work (X4)
On Mondays, I never go to work
On Tuesdays, I stay at home
On Wednesdays, I never feel inclined
Work is the last thing on my mind
On Thursdays, it’s [...]
“It’s It†spotted in the wild…
I wish I had a video of my wife’s reaction to seeing these It’s It boxes in our local grocer’s freezer case. I have never seen a reaction like that before —no words or breath, gesticulating wildly.
Ever since these fantastic ice cream treats disappeared from Dodger’s stadium a few years back, we hadn’t seen a trace [...]
BMX (update)
You might recall from a previous post that I got my old BMX bike out of my mom’s garage to eventually give to my son. Well, recently I had her restored to her former glory. Big thanks to Mr. Jalopy and Jesse over at Coco’s Variety Store for doing the work! They respectfully restore [...]
Plug ‘N’ Play
I recently ordered one of these plug ‘n’ play headphone amps for my electric guitar. It’s the VOX amPlug, and it arrived today. I took it for a spin and I have to say it rocks! (literally.) I recommend this highly for anyone who wants to practice without waking the neighbors or the baby. It [...]
I can do this job in my sleep…
I rarely talk about my dreams in waking life, let alone on my blog, mainly because they are usually boring work-related dreams. I call them “workmares.” Something like: I dream I’m back at the IN-N-OUT making french fries and I’m way behind and trying to catch up except that I’m me right now and I [...]
Helvetica
To whomever sent me a copy of the Helvetica Movie Limited Edition Box, THANK YOU!
Update: It turns out my brother bought this for me as an early Xmas gift. Thanks, Dave!
2nd Place Is the First Loser
I don’t think I mentioned it here, but I went out and bought me a spankin’ new Playstation 3 game system in anticipation of the next installment of my all-time favorite game: Grand Theft Auto. And it was only the next day, that Take-Two Interactive (the game’s distributor) announced that they would delay the release [...]
Welcome to the Neighborhood!
They recently opened a Best Buy near our house, and we went over to check it out on the day of the Grand Opening. It pretty much looks like a Best Buy from the outside, and there wasn’t a whole lot fanfare or activity.
You would think being brand new that it’d be state-of-the-art inside, but [...]
Let’s Do a Line!
My next-door neighbor has always been my up-to-the minute info source for web games that appeal to 11-yr-olds, (we won’t get into that week where I played RuneScape — and how I thought it was called “Run Escape” because that’s all I ever did,) and today he gave me the skinny on this little number.
