I had heard about this new, terrific holiday last week, but I let it slip by without having partaken in either. I had meat loaf for dinner, so if I go pet the one-eyed monster before heading off to bed, I'll have had a second rate holiday at least.

Jan 4th (today) is National Trivia Day, how's that for a bit of trivia?? I only know this because of a chanukah gift that a good friend gave me. Here is a list of the top 10 trivial events of 2004 according to Hasbro, makers of Trivial Pursuit. The origin of the word comes from latin, tri meaning three and via meaning way. "Huh?" you might say. Apparently, the Romans had these three-way

One of my first posts was about the boyfriend pillow that women were snapping up. I'm not sure if the same company is responsible for the new lap pillow, but I'm betting that it is. Man, who needs women now that these pillows are out? ;)

I've been watching Inside the Actor's Studio on Bravo quite a bit lately... I finally got a chance to watch the Natalie Portman interview from last week yesterday. I think I am officially in love. She was born in Israel, can speak Hebrew and can curse like an Arab. Not to mention that she is absolutely gorgeous. I want to join her fan club immediately!

I read Unfit for Command this weekend... I didn't realize what a snivelling little asswipe John Kerry is. The guy only served three months in Viet Nam and came away with three purple hearts, a bronze star and a silver star? Doesn't that sound ludicrous to anyone other than himself? Also the fact if he was such a great war hero, why would only one out of 20 people from his boats support his

I just watched The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Super Size Me. Two very interesting movies in their own rights. The really cool part about Eternal Sunshine is that all the special effects were done with the camera and lighting, there was no CG. Super Size Me was just scary. Check out the bonus materials and watch the food decompose (or not) in air-tight containers over the course of

This last election was much closer than I thought it would or even should be, even though I think it was a pretty clear victory at 289 to 252 and over 3.5 million popular votes. At least I don't have to hear whining about how Bush didn't win the popular vote this time around. It's a little conceited anyway to have 20 states be able to dictate who the president will be because of population. I

Two times this month, I journeyed down to sunny (read: hot) Mexico, home of cheap beer, bacteria-infested water, and loose morals. (Notice how all three relate to fluids). :P Each time I return, I find myself wondering why I am leaving. The first time was for a double birthday party. About fifteen of us crammed into two condos in Rocky Point for four days. Even though I lost a pair of

I was sitting in the McDonalds drive-thru window with the spoils of one the offensive displays from the BOB this season today. Not offensive as in made my stomach acids boil up, but offensive as in the Diamondbacks actually produced a few runs and got me a free Big Mac coupon. While I was waiting for my order behind the gas-guzzling Hummer in front of me, I got a sudden nostalgia for those old

I watched the debates last night thanks to my handy dandy DVR. Its like a Tivo. It's great, but I kind of hate that thing. I've watched more television in the last two months than I have in the last two years. So aside from almost falling asleep twice, I can say I was completely underwhelmed by both candidates. Bush has no public speaking skills and Kerry contradicted himself and flat out lied

I went down to Tucson for a friend's wedding shower party this weekend. It was a pretty good trip, as far as Tucson goes. :) Zach played with his band on Thursday night, check out his website. He has a bunch of music samples there that are worth listening to. Jay his step-brother made the website, pretty good, if I must say so myself.

So I get this bill for $165 from Sprint even though I haven't had service with them for three months now because I had the crappiest reception in the world on their service. I call and speak to someone who tells me that it was from an early termination. I signed up with them in March of 2002 and cancelled in June of 2004. They have a two year contract. I asked the guy to explain to me how that

I originally was not going to attend the DMB concert last night. I bought these tickets a few months back at $55 a pop, but I didn't know anyone that liked Dave enough to pony up the $55 for the seat. I drove down to Cricket nee Blockbuster nee Desert Sky Pavilion intent on selling the tickets and heading back home. It took me over an hour to hawk them. In the meantime, I had all these other

Am I the only human on the planet that has not watched a full episode of American Idol? Isn't it pretty much the same thing as Star Search but with an asshole Brit as one of the judges? The half episode I caught was this Simon bloke being a complete dick to people that were actually doing a good job. I guess it's kinda like that woman Anne Robinson from The Weakest Link being such a bitch....

Talk about crazy! Thieves have stolen Munch's painting The Scream in broad daylight at gunpoint right out of the Munch Museum in Norway. At least we don't have to worry about the same thing happening to Picasso's Guernica. That sucker is HUGE!! 25 feet by 11 feet and took Picasso two months to actually draw, but many more months to set up. I got a chance to actually see the painting in Madrid,

Instead of working today, I played web games most of the time. I can justify this because I'm stuck on this problem, and I'm cultivating my creativity which in turn will help me solve the problem I'm stuck on currently. That's what I'll tell my boss in case he runs across this blog anyway. ;) Here are some of the links : Gridlock (I got to level 29 before calling it quits) Eskiv (Beat a 175!)

How many times have you met a girl that just wanted to be friends and snuggle? Or even had a girlfriend or wife not be in the mood and want to just cuddle? Which you say you are cool with even though you're not in the hopes that it may turn into more than just snuggling. Well, those crafy Japanese women are a step ahead of us guys. There is a new "boyfriend arm pillow" available there that costs

The olympics are a time where all the countries of the world get together and compete in sport. Well, almost all countries. In 1984, Russia refused to compete in the LA summer olympics because it was on U.S. soil. In 1980, the U.S. refused to compete in the Moscow summer olympics because it was on Soviet soil. Of course, the U.S. could take the high ground because they had just upset the U.S.S.R.

Brits often call us Americans too prudish when it comes to nudity and sex. Well, at least in this instance, we can ask them what took *them* so long to get on the bandwagon. Naked News started broadcasting the in the UK last month. I first saw this fine news broadcast back in 2000. Unfortunately, it's now a pay service.

I finished reading the Davinci Code. Pretty good read. Fast paced. Could barely put the book down. I really liked how the author was able to weave historical characters and facts into the plot. Anyone notice a mention of Nicolas Flamel? Same one from the first Harry Potter book. My roommate walked by at one point and told me how outraged Christians are with the author, Dan Brown.

I got my first hang over in about ten years on Saturday. Boy do they suck!! I was over at a friend's house drinking and carrying on until the wee hours of the night and didn't think I had imbibed enough alcohol to warrant a hangover, but apparently I had. :( So, I moseyed around the house trying not to move too quickly and upset my poor brain cavity and channel surfed.

Women in the Netherlands can sleep safely tonight knowing that the infamous Dutch toe-licker was apprehended last Friday after getting caught having licked the toes of some women who were sunbathing earlier in the day. Or can they? The problem was, there was no law on the books that would allow the police to prosecute the notorious foot-fetisher. So instead of planting a glove at the scene, the
