Classic Bill Simmons article: One final toss for the Dooze. He wrote this when 2009 started, but I re-read it this week because it was mentioned in his most recent mail bag. He says it’s his most read piece ever, … Continue reading

Sweet Genius teaser. Flipped through channels and watched this for about three minutes. Pretty sure Food Network has secured the most insufferable personality on TV (and possibly the world).

Friends Visit San Diego

Tubo and Garsh visited San Diego this past weekend. The only goal when planning things was to try and do as much as possible that wouldn’t be done in Seattle. Meaning go to the beach and avoid chain restaurants.

Went to the Chargers/Chiefs game a couple days ago and seeing the Chiefs reminded me of Dante Hall. I was thinking maybe his returns were being exaggerated in my head. Looked up some highlights today, and they were definitely as … Continue reading

Big Ghost reviews J. Cole’s album. My favorite fake celebrity blog since Real Drew Bledsoe’s classic. Dollar and a Dream III – This beat sounds like Puffy circa Life After Death was in the studio wit his toothpick in his … Continue reading

Complex.com has a good article on J. Cole. Interesting perspective because it’s written by Damien Scott, who roomed with him at St. John’s University. The crowds were usually small and full of drunk college kids, but it was an opportunity … Continue reading

I was split on whether I wanted Mayweather to win (it’d be more exciting if he fought Pacquaio while still undefeated) or not (that fight’s never happening so it’d be good to see anybody beat the guy). The Larry Merchant … Continue reading

Things I did in June

Here are some phone pictures from June, when I was in D.C. for most of the month. First, these two flying contraptions from the aerospace museum. I like the first one mostly because it reminds me of the Godzilla episode … Continue reading

Back to Our Roots 2011: Five Memories

This isn’t really ranked, it’s just five quick memories from last weekend’s camping trip. But first, a Harry Potter portrait (no sound, but Jerry’s saying I should sit here and double gun it—don’t mind if I do!): Salmon Potter caught … Continue reading

Back to Our Roots 2011
