As I drove down to the iParty last night and gawked at the cars that were double-parked ONTO THE HIGHWAY, I thought to myself… have people forgotten the true meaning of Halloween? I mean with all the costumes and candy and women who loosen their moral code for one night a year (God bless them [...]

Just a quick post to let everyone know that I’m going to try and get another post up by Thursday. I’ve got hockey tonight and last night I went to the Celtics opener against the Cavs (Celts won) and watched banner #17 get raised. Totally awesome.
Anyways, I also wanted to thank everyone that’s been reading [...]

Now there’s not too much I’m all that super-freaking-awesome at, I admit that (though The Dead Pool’s been getting a lot of hits, woooo!). But apparently I am a human repository of completely inane, random information. For example, I was working last night – I’m a bar back at a restaurant/lounge in West Roxbury – [...]

Author’s Note: I made a bunch of typos and quoted the wrong Nirvana song (oops!) in the original. I was just writing stream of consciousness and hadn’t planned on posting it here at first. My bad; it’s been edited. Enjoy.
I’ve always been sort of fascinated by girls named Mary or Maria. I don’t think one [...]

Hey folks. Hope your Monday is pluggin’ along a little faster than mine. Figured I’d drop a quick (as if anything I ever do is intentionally brief) update to pass the time.
Big downer for the Red Sox last night. The Tampa Bay (Devil) Rays managed to pull out a big game 7 win to secure their [...]

THEY DID IT! Woah, Deja vu. The Red Sox have once again managed to do the seemingly impossible. Just nine outs away from elimination, and down by seven runs (the largest deficit to over come since Game Four of the 1927 World Series), the Red Sox stormed back to make it 7-4. Then, just FOUR [...]

THEY DID IT! The Red Sox advance to the ALCS to face their new division rivals (and a team who’s guts I f*cking despise) in the Tampa Bay (Devil) Rays, after a ninth inning two-out walk-off single by Jed “Don’t Call Me Julio” Lowrie. The Man Named Jed’s hit scored Jason (Being Jason) Bay from [...]

So I’m now 3 weeks into the new job. Because “The Kompany” has more damn Ethics and Compliance, Security and Conflict of Interest policies and procedures than the NSA, I’m just going to it as “The Kompany.” And yes, for all you complete losers like me out there, spelling Company with K is a reference [...]
