You Don’t Know Jack

Jack Edwards is my hero.
If you don’t know why Jack’s my hero, you probably haven’t watched a Boston’s sports game with me. Crazy Jack says the sort of crazy things I say; albeit with less cursing and a more sonically pleasing voice. I’m not here to argue that Jack isn’t a homer announcer – that [...]

Let Me Call My Mom

The Boss is feeling particularly insightful and introspective today… which is really unfortunate because the only thing noteworthy I have to write about today is beer and women – territory where much more insightful/introspective/awesome men than I have worn. Curse you, Bukowski! Oh well, maybe if you’re lucky you’ll get something out of me today [...]

Dead Man’s Alley

I know I say this every week, but thank God it’s Friday. Only about two and a half more hours before the weekend and Micah’s birthday celebration. Old man Boyce turned 24 yesterday and we’re heading out to Cask N Flagon tonight to celebrate, and probably heading out somewhere nice tomorrow – to satiate the [...]

Twhoring

I got bored (SHOCKING) today at work and was over on my Twitter account (Follow me by clicking on the huge blue bird over hyere —>) and was thinking of all the crazy “Tw-” words (or Twords) that have sprung up as Twitter has risen in popularity. It seems like Twitter is everywhere these days [...]

Life Thru Media

I was over on The Facebook and there’s some new app that let’s people pick their Top 5 of different things (very High Fidelity of them). Since I’m obviously overwhelmed with tasks right now, I decided to knock out a few ones real quick.
Beers
Switchback
Guinness
Sam Adams Octoberfest
Killian’s Irish Red
Budweiser
Video Games
Star Fox 64
Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of [...]

Red Balloons

One of my best friends is leaving for boot camp in about three and a half hours, and because I am incapable of expressing emotion like any normal person, I’m sitting here in the cube typing this.
I’ve known Deirdre since August 28, 2004. Sounds kind of creepy that I know the exact date, but it [...]

Fat Ass Melancholy

(I spelled that word right without any help. Get off me.)
It is 11:11am (quick make a wish, kids) and I’ve already come to a number of truly pathetic realizations about my dubious existence, which is rather impressive because I didn’t actually reach a state of functional mental activity until around 10:45. I figured that I’d [...]

Weird Things

http://xkcd.com/557/
I was racking my brain for things to write about, because I’m trapped in the middle of three styrofoam walls for the next 6 or so hours. I thought about talking about dreams, hence the XKCD comic, but considering that I usually don’t remember my dreams (and the ones I do remember, I’m not particularly [...]

I’m Not Black In February

There are really only 3 good things about Mondays.
1. How I Met Your Mother is on CBS at 8:30 (and Big Bang Theory is on at 8, but that’s really just like an opening act)
2. Heroes is on NBC at 9 (though this has become less exciting since Heroes got all political)
3. Monday is Pianosa [...]

It Seems Like Forever Ago…

Being a computer nerd (in addition to being a geek), I find it necessary to download as much open source garbage and unnecessary Web 2.0 frivolities as humanly possible. As a result of this I’ve now managed connect all my Instant Messenger accounts through Pidgin, as well as connect my Twitter accounts to Pidgin, and [...]
