You know there’s a prosecutor somewhere in Maryland who is going to be telling this story at Bar Association mixers for the rest of his life: Accepting a plea bargain that her attorney described as unprecedented in American jurisprudence, a 22-year-old Maryland woman yesterday agreed to cooperate in the prosecution of other defendants [...]

It’s not an interesting day on the internet unless someone has threatened to sue you. Lately I’ve been in the market for a roommate. To facilitate that, I’ve been keeping an eye on Craigslist. Unfortunately, my user experience over there has been negatively impacted by one particular realtor. John Adams Realty seems to think it’s a [...]

Someone got the bright idea to translate an episode of Cribs from whatever language the Ying-Yang Twis were speaking into honest-to-goodness English. The result is hilarious. If the video isn’t big enough to read the words on the bottom, you’re missing out. Once you’re done laughing at the translation, watch it again to get a feel [...]

Today Scout is three years old. If that whole thing about dog years being people years times seven is actually true, we’re going to have to get wasted tonight to celebrate! In honor of the furry beast, I figured I’d post a nice selection of pictures from his first day at home to his recent [...]

Today was the first weekend of AFDC Spring League. Lots of fun. I ended up landing funny during the first game and doing something bizarre to my (right) shoulder. Smart Pete would have stopped playing, iced it, and rested. Smart Pete doesn’t play ultimate frisbee, though, so he was at home. Instead, I played the [...]

The human body is an amazing thing. All of the outrage and hand-wringing about the AIG bonuses has caused me to roll my eyes so many times that I’d have thought for sure they’d have fallen completely out of my head but, alas, they have not. There are a few problems with the incessant bitching.

Yesterday I had all kinds of things I could have written about. There’s a Furry Convention in town this weekend, for example. I’d venture to guess that most of you don’t even know what a Furry is. I came up with one of my best ideas ever, which was quickly given away to anyone who wants [...]

The sisters were in town this past weekend, which was great. On account of the new job, I wasn’t able to spend Friday hanging out, but we got lots of quality time in on Saturday and Sunday before they left. Reese is adorable, of course (would you expect any less out of a Holiday?). We went [...]

Here’s a giant list of things you should have already seen on the internet: YouShouldHaveSeenThis.com. There were five or ten things on that list that I hadn’t seen before, like George Lucas in Love. There were also a few old favorites like Bubb Rubb and gay Mount Everest, but there were some left off, like The Song [...]
