Election

I get that a lot of you are disappointed that your guy lost, but can we cut out the "America is going to hell" and "I'm moving to Canada" bullshit?

My Pick This Week

November 02, 2012

Every week, I carve out a little time to study college football lines. If you've paid close attention, you might remember that I'm one of several who try to pick one upset each week. When your upset hits, you get the number of points in the spread added to your total, and at the end of the season, you pocket a little extra coffee money and have bragging rights for the year.

So what does everyone think of their new iPhone OS? The maps are getting hammered, but I think they're really cool. Of course, they have some flaws, but Google's maps were pretty bad at first too, and they didn't have 3D buildings or turn-by-turn navigation.

Somersaults

September 26, 2012

My friends, I might just have found an example that's among the worst packaging ever. Behold, the package of Somersaults. Let's start with the cartwheeling sailer. If you look real close, his undershirt is one of those that says, "I'm so gay, I shit rainbows." But in case his dapper sailing outfit -- complete with white shoes and red bandanna -- don't give it away, he's upside down and holding a sunflower.

41

September 17, 2012

I am 41 today. I'm such an old man. I guess at this point, the deeper voice, additional muscle, and lengthening penis that we learned about in 6th grade sex ed just isn't in the cards for me.

Overheard at theskinnyonbenny Headquarters

September 06, 2012

One drawback of working from home, is the interruption that occurs at the end of the afternoon when the kids get home from school. Yesterday, I heard Vanya at the bottom of the stairs saying this.

On the way into school this morning, Vanya remembered an incident from the previous day. "You know what Papa? Marnie said that Power Rangers weren't real."
