He’s not just a hummer

Now I know I’ve described the gentleman before who enjoys (ugh!)  humming to his heart’s content.  Well, now I’ve discovered some other random annoying talents (if you can call them that). No, it would be too restrictive for this man to have only one skill.  This guy’s an artist!  He cannot be a mere hummer!  He [...]

The Vocal Stylings of the Weekend Crew

There is a new most unpleasant, habitual entertainment that I did not sign up for when I moved.  I experienced just a bit of it before when I commented about the late-night warblings of drunken skunks in the bar below me.  Hey, that’s what makes the rent cheap.  On a normal day, the alcoholics keep it [...]

Riding the Oscar Wagon

I didn’t see Crash, but I “broke”-down (pardon the pun) to see Brokeback Mountain.
First off, Carlos just didn’t want to see this movie.  Not because of the gay theme, but because he felt that he would be bored by a “paced” movie.  He also said that he didn’t want to ruin his view of cowboys.  Coming from [...]

Sometimes you just have to worry about the grout

The other day, I was sick with worry.  I sat in front of my pc pondering the meaning of life, wondering where I’d be in the next few months (job-free) and sulking to my heart’s content.  I went to a bad place, a very bad place.  On the verge of tears and self-pity, good ole Carlos [...]

What the hell is wrong with Christina Ricci?

So I’m watching “Dinner for Five”, a show on the IFC channel where various celebrities from the Indepent circuit sit around a table and chat about whatever young talent talks about.  The mix of talent is really good and can theoretically be quite entertaining, actually.  For reality tv junkies like myself, it offers a refreshing change [...]

I Know You’re Dying to Know

Why’d I leave Blogspot?
Two reasons, really. OK, there’s more…probably. The first is the simple strikethrough feature. I wanted to be able to strikethrough my text; a trend that Jamelah started. Yes, Jam you started a “trend”. I also thought it’d be cool to be able to customize my header, but I haven’t gotten that far [...]

STOP WITH THE HUMMING!

Occasionally, I become acutely aware that as I get older, I get a wee bit judgemental. No matter how big or small the infraction, I have a tendency to go postal to the point of plugging my ears and stomping my feet in a childlike tantrum fit. So why, kiddies, why do I have to [...]

Cheers to Human Ingenuity…”Hip, Hip, Hooray!”

Apparently, all you need to get creative is a blizzard. That’s right, folks. Snow makes Man (or Woman for that matter) turn to their most primitive natural instincts to find abstract solutions to their problems. A most beautiful concept. So it is without further ado that I inform you of the nature of my goddess-like [...]

The Girl from Iponima & Other Elevator Scenes

In case my fans haven’t heard, there is such a thing as elevator ettiquette. How do I know? Well, believe it or not, our company once held a training seminar about it. Yeah, I know. But I actually did come away with something more than at the “Sexual Harrassment in the Workplace” seminar.
Allow me a [...]

So Quiet, You Could Hear Crickets Chirping

You won’t hear a peep from me on where I’ve been, my dears. It’s all relative to where I am. And since it is all about me, I think that I’ll spill the beans when I’m good and ready. Or, at least until they’re cooked to perfection.
