    you should know

    Friday, February 5th, 2010

    So a friend at work let me know about Momentile some time ago, back when it was in its beta phase, and I really liked it immediately. Rather than do lots of extensive typing and thinking, I will now lazily blockquote their About page. A momentile consists of a single image, defined only by the [...]

    Another heartfelt cop-out for NaBloPoMo today, though this is one I’ve been meaning to get to for a long time. It’s a favorite passage from a favorite book — “Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers,” by Mary Roach — containing what continues to be one of my top seventeen favorite words in the English [...]

    Anniversatating

    Wednesday, January 11th, 2006

    It is January 11, and today H.G. “Beans” Byrne is six months old. He celebrated the occasion by getting a flu shot. He did not, from what I could tell, feel particularly celebratory about said flu shot. Man, did he ever turn red. HGB turned our lives upside down, but then he turned it right-side [...]

    … And a happy twelfth night

    Monday, January 10th, 2005

    I was about to say how I don’t like to brag about my friends, but to hell with that. People, I’ve got some quality motherscratchin’ friends. When one of them gives you this for XXX-Mas: … I mean, it’s almost redundant to brag. Merry XXX-Mas from Dookie.

    Thankful.

    God damn, am I a lucky sonofabitch. Observe: • The Wife: Awesome, foxy, more fun than a barrel of mandrill baboons. • The Friends: Better than anybody has a right to have. Halliwell alone would be an achievement, but add the Szaszkos and Natrone & Jen and the Crutchmers and the KeKinders and the Matt [...]

    My ever-vigilant boss just made me visit this site, which fills my heart with happiness. I highly recommend it. Agent Foxxy Boxing sent me this link a few days ago. It, too, rules. No thinking today. Just linking.

    An open love letter

    Monday, November 8th, 2004

    Dear KC-MO, (Sigh.) Parting was such sweet sorrow. As Darleece, Gin & Juice and I finally found the highway out of town yesterday, I couldn’t help but reflect on what a fucking kick-ass weekend we had, and what a kick-ass place you are. Even after we checked in close to midnight Friday, and Dr. 12 [...]

    Return from The Lou

    Monday, October 11th, 2004

    Um, right, so there was a week there when I didn’t write anything for a couple of days, then left town for several more days. Time out of town was spent in lovely St. Louis, with the lovely Max Power and Chesty LaRue, who’ve set up shop there. I had a damn fine time, which [...]

    Suck at 35,000 feet

    Monday, September 27th, 2004

    God bless Netflix, and the fine work they do. I forget how I even heard about it, but a double-feature DVD of “Airport” and “Airport ’75″ sure did make its way to the top of our Netflix queue recently, and yesterday afternoon/evening Darleece and I got the chance/had the free time/nothing good was on TV [...]
