Return of the Jedis

As a kid under the age of 10, I probably spent more hours playing Star Wars than I did doing my homework or reading. So I’m likely in the exact demographic/psychographic for this new VW ad featuring a little boy dressed as Darth Vader trying to use The Force. The commercial is really good considering [...]

Traffic Lights

If you’ve ever talked to me for more than a few seconds regarding the topic of commuting you know that I’m not a fan of driving to or from work. Jenn & I share this duty (thankfully) as I drive in the morning while she does her makeup and she drives in the evening. It’s [...]

Lucky Number 11

Today marks my hire date anniversary at Turner, my “Turner-versary”. In over a decade of working for the company, I’ve worked six different positions in four departments and two business units. To say that a career is a journey would be an apt analogy. I hadn’t thought about it too much – who celebrates either [...]

End of Summer Jams

The hit of the last fortnight has been Cee-Lo Green’s “Fuck You” (both the text-only version and the newer official version). The hummable (if not singable) nature of the song and the amazing videos (as different as they are) got me thinking about another great tune with a stunning video: Her Morning Elegance by Oren [...]

Teefury Godness

Just got my initial order(s) from teefury and now I have to figure out when I’ll wear them. Also testing out the new WordPress app for iPhone. And additionally placing my first iPhone pics that used the flash. Nothing Flickr-worthy but I’m betting I fit somewhere between the Family Guy target audience (Hulk + Kool-aid [...]

We’re #1

I’ve been loath to mention the most recent #1 ranking for the University of Georgia, since the last time UGA was ranked #1 things didn’t work out so well: I digress. The current #1 on everyone’s mind is this Princeton Review list of the Top Party Schools. My response: smirky-shrug UGA’s response: “We’d rather focus [...]

Lost: The End

So here it is. Finally. The End. I’ve been putting off writing this post at least in part because it signifies not only the end of the series, but a significant portion of my blogging activities. For the better part of the last 5 years (I didn’t start blogging about individual episodes until the Premiere [...]

Lost: Recon

Tonight’s episode was easily one of my favorite episodes of this season, if not the series, for the character development of one James Ford AKA Sawyer.
Commencing to blogging!
First, let me do a little bit of non-”numbers” math:

That’s the number of Sawyer-related sex scenes we had tonight.

The first was with the double-crossed con woman (A re-con, [...]

Of Gilmore Girls, Modern Family & Parenthood

I have, for whatever reason, a certain amount of fan cred for the TV show Gilmore Girls (late of The WB & The CW) because I took a Google search term – Rory Gilmore Sex Boat – and made it my own. Four and a half years later and I’m still number one, which sends [...]

Bean Soup

The other day my mother-in-law was nice enough to give us a ham bone with the (ample) remains of a Honey Baked Ham still attached to it.
My first thought: whose recipe for Bean Soup should I use first?
My mother-in-law insisted whatever recipe I use should be altered to include potatoes, so I took that to [...]

Well, not really, but an embedded customized video will have to do.

No word yet if a Disney attorney will C&D me on the blog name, but I’m hopeful that won’t happen.
Anyhow, the video is in support of the Disney Parks “Give A Day. Get A Day.” volunteerism program. You might have seen the Muppets in [...]

My little piece of the Fiesta Movement

As an initial caveat, I’d like to start off by saying that I am not an “Agent” of Ford’s Fiesta Movement, I’m just someone who has seen the promotion/activation/campaign and been pretty impressed by the use of social media.
Here’s the second caveat: I’m an avowed Mimobot nut. Check the archives. Ever since I got my [...]

Mimobots!

I had my first run-in with a Mimobot and the fine folks at Mimoco during SXSW back in March. I loved the concept and the execution so much I got one for myself and one for Jenn and even contemplated them as “toys” for Rae & Owen.
Hey, Rae needed a flash drive for school. It [...]
