Cookies and sex differ in the way that cookies are generally better the softer they are, while sex is generally better the harder you are.
So Long Bayside
In about an hour I depart for Binghamton for the start of the Spring 09 semester. I slacked off on my posting duties in the last couple of weeks for two reasons mostly. One, my internal debate about blogging swung back towards “Blogging is a bastardization of everything writing should be, a means of cheapening communication and another way to avoid human contact.” And yet I continue...
Sick Day
I’m sick on this snowy MLK Day. After playing enough Call Of Duty to make myself believe I could singlehandedly storm the Reichstag and sitting on the warm radiator watching the pristine WHITE snow try and take away from the good reverend’s day (For shame snow, for shame) I laid down on the couch with my laptop. Unsure of what to write here because all I had done today was cough up...
Boo's Big Break
Nate once famously said of my brother and me, “You’re photoshopping geniuses. It comes so natural to you guys. That, text messaging and gay sex.” As a slight correction I don’t have photoshop. I struggle along with the old PC standby, Paint. It’s not sexy, but it has lead to some of the greatest creations of the young 21st century. In my time I’ve created...
A MOM-ent For Self Reflection
I heard people bitching about my lack of posting lately. I’ve seen the interwebs buzzing with rumors that I was washed up and past my prime. I’d like to address those people now…
Apparently my mom caught up on the last couple of entries here and took exception to the one centering around her “use” of facebook. She jokingly threatened to start her own blog where she...
Boredom Takes Hold...
Just some random stuffs from this afternoon:
allisons:
“Did you know that FX has changed its afternoon programming annd has replaced King Of The Hill with The Bernie Mac Show? First Obama and now this :(”
— Zachary…who else, really? What gems.
^Aren’t I hilarious? I seriously am distraught over this revelation though.
^ Youtube has a frighteningly good bead on the person I...
Auditory Hijinx
I love parallelism. I like it in literature, I like it in cinema, (I could shoot out 5,000 words easily on the amazing use of it in “The Departed”) and I like it in life. So it’s only fitting that I started my week with the exploration of a facial cavity (mouth) and that I ended my week with the exploration of a facial cavity (ears). I trekked over to the...

Revolution In The Bronx
I know my tone is usually light and message fairly, if not completely pointless, so I’m giving fair warning to anyone who can’t handle seriousness (Kenneth) look away. This week a number of teachers at my former high school, The Bronx High School of Science, quit as a result of the administration. This is not a new problem. The faculty and administration have been at odds with each...
Oral Hygeine-x (Hijinks)
Yesterday, as devoted readers already know I had to return to the dentist to get a cavity filled. Devoted readers and those who know me, also know I can be an awkward person. When an awkward person is put in an awkward situation things get exponentially worse. I submit for your approval, Return To The Dentist.
Things started out alright. I didn’t wait long to be seen, an attractive, young...
Parents Just Don't Understand
The title of this post is stolen from a weekly segment on Collegehumor, run by a girl I have an unexplainable crush on. That’s neither here nor there though, the title was just appropriate for today’s subject matter.
Lately a lot of my friends’ parents, friends of my parents, older relatives, and most specifically my mom have created facebook accounts. In her defense she...
"They Liked Me So Much I Gotta Come Back...
I’m going to start with a plug. —-> http://clubtrillion.blogspot.com Mark Titus is the 12th man on the Ohio State basketball team and does his own blog. He’s a junior in college and partly my inspiration for starting to write here. It’s definitely worth reading if you have time (after reading my thoughts).
Sunday lead to a Father-Son-Bonding-Lunch at a restaurant by the...
A Day In The Life
I have answered the calls of my acolytes and given my people a voice through a website that allows for blog commenting. I know my readership has jumped to double-digits and I hope the dozen of you that frequent the site take full advantage of commenting. I enjoy writing here, but it’s all for you guys really. I discovered a way to keep myself busy during down time without issue when I was about...
Comments
The blog faithful can now comment thanks to Jeremy. That’s two references for Jeremy in two different blogs in the same week!
Yellow Snow, Blue Women, Gang Violence, and Bro...
Twenty-aught-nine started off with all of the action and drama Valkryie so greatly lacked. After getting out of the shower my brother eagerly alerts me I should have the camera ready. Excited for the first shenanigan of 2009 I follow him around for 10 minutes before he gets annoyed and tells me he’ll come get me when it’s ready. I start making plans for dinner (By the time I was awake...
Grandparents Say The Darndest Things
New Years Eve went surprisingly well, especially after my grim forecast from earlier. Nothing to really say about it though, just wanted to share a couple of things.
(While on the phone)
Poppy: I was supposed to go with a seniors group from my building tonight for the new year but it’s too cold out.
Me: Oh really?
Poppy: Yeah, we were going to go out to watch the balls drop, but since...
