I’ve been in my house five years now. I have a metal shower curtain rod in my bathroom. I have metal hooks that are on that shower curtain rod. For five fucking years, I’ve heard scraping metal against metal every blessed damn day in the morning. I complain about it in [...]

…and I’m still fugging laughing as I type this. Too true. Too funny. I finally beat MSG4 and to be honest, I enjoyed the game. It took my 36 hours to beat it and I’ll wager that 18 of those hours were spent in cut scenes. It’s the video game [...]

What do you say to the guy who lead a gang rape ten years ago against your favorite ex-girlfriend? Well, I had no clue so I acted like nothing happened. He looked exactly like he did in high school. Afterwards, he went to a major local Ohio college along with my best [...]

…came to me almost seven years after I left the BFA program at Bowling Green State University here in Ohio. And it came from a Hollywood writer, director and producer I happen to have a great deal of respect for–David Milch (Deadwood, John from Cincinnati, NYPD Blue, etc.).

Okay, okay, okay. I’m addicted to gadgets. I know it. Fantastic Bastard dubbed me “Technology Boy” ten years ago and he was absolutely correct. If it’s the latest thing, I have to have it. Infommercials are a particular weakness of mine. I love to be sold on the next [...]
