Wouldn’t it be cool if cops would pull you over for good driving and instead of giving you a ticket, they would give you a certificate and some free movie tickets or something?
They could also use different colored lights to pull you over - like happy green and yellow instead of harsh red and blue. [...]

Today brings us a guest post from my good friend Nick Long who hails from the great state of Texas.
#10 Gremlins (1984)
This was most likely my first and most traumatizing movie theater experience. My unsuspecting parents were fooled by the PG rating and images of a cute, cuddly ‘mogwai’ - they weren’t alone. As a [...]

Why do candy companies screw around with perfectly good candy? Was there a problem with just normal Peanut Butter Twix? Was the cookie contingent feeling so left out you had to throw them a bone?
And speaking of my favorite Peanut Butter candies - how in the world did PB Max not make it? [...]

I always get a little panicked around my birthday or Christmas because inevitably people will be asking “What do you want?” First, I always feel a little sheepish because I really don’t “need” anything and I really don’t like asking for things. Second I never have the right answer for the [...]

I’ve never kept a running diary before so I’m jumping into uncharted waters. Sit back and relax and prepare to be catapulted into my weird and odd observations as I watch 24. If you haven’t seen it yet - spoilers to follow.
No injury can keep Jack down.
Hmmm, anybody think those nukes won’t make [...]

I went to Hollywood Video today to rent a game for some friends coming over tomorrow and they not only were they out of the game I wanted [...]

I was just thinking…
The smell of a fresh bag of properly cooked popcorn is one of the best things in the world. The smell of a burned bag is one of the worst. Just a few seconds in the microwave separate one of life’s great experiences from 2 days of [...]

Time for the requisite family and friends update.
I have been getting a lot of emails from family and friends with all the cute and cuddly details about their lives. And since my email habits are like my phone habits (I try and spend as little time on both as possible) I’ve been feeling a [...]

I just found possibly one of the most useful things in my lifetime. No, not a really fast electric car, or even a Feline Stay-Fresh Drinking Fountain…(which is sold out by the way due to its immense popularity) No dear brothers and sisters I’m talking about the Procrastinator’s Clock.
What? Me? A [...]

Over the last 2 years I have become bi-lingual. I speak fluent English and passable “Toddler.” The tricky thing is that “Toddler” is not a standardized language and there are many dialects. In fact its probably safe to say that just about every kid from the age of 0-4 has their own [...]
