This just made me laugh so hard, from Chris White Answers Profound Questions About the Presidents on McSweeny’s.
“When at his Georgia retreat, FDR liked to ditch the Secret Service, drive the back roads in his polio-mobile and see how the Depression was going.”
I really do picture FDR jauntily waving to the shivering pile of bones staring [...]
Eyebrow maintenance has not been a priority of mine lately.
I wish I had those kind of brows that are bushy, yet perfectly shaped by a skeptical eye roll. After looking at myself in the mirror and promising to do it that very night then, oh hey, this book needs reading, and this thumbnail needs filing and [...]
Reading every single McSweeny’s article, every single day.
Granted, I read pretty much every news story that gets published on the web, but I really got excited to see that Rory Douglas had a new column about MMA up, but will probably have to read it, here, at my desk, sitting up, instead of recumbent with a [...]
You know that part of Inception where everything comes shattering down in giant chunks and the van is going in the water and people might be dying and things are not going according to plan?
Things are like that right now.
But I did have a fun Saturday. And Lauren gets here in less than a week, Kah [...]

Shit is going DOWN y’all. I got my first business cards (I now network like a fool). Gay marriage is almost okay here in CA (Double Rainbow! So beautiful!). I love my job very, very, very much. I went back to MA for the first time [...]
…where even the yellow labs lack enthusiasm for 90 degree heatwaves:
…where the lovebirds nest:
…where the mangs get older and wiser:
Also: I have a sunburn.
And Lauren Ross moves here in ONE MONTH. You’re [...]
Kristen (dice) and Marie (goldfish) discuss Up In [...]
I went to go run up and down the Hyde Street hill here in SF last night while Brian was playing at Jack’s Cannery at the wharves, and when I got back, the ESPYs were on in the bar. I think watching sports is among the most boring things you can do with a television, I [...]
Did anyone else know that serpentine is CA’s state rock? And that it contains asbestos dust? And that CA is apparently embarrassed by this fact and is engaged in a “Drop the Rock” campaign to remove it from the books as a symbol of Califonia’s…what? Misguided alliances with Lord Voldemort? Are we so worried about PR [...]
