My wife insists–and only because I think she is a little jealous–that I have a man-crush on Absinthe. It’s rare for me to pick up new friends, and when I came home from Vegas...

Indeed, I think I am, but not so much that I’m ready to bet the farm on it. For those who don’t know, I’m just back from a trip to Las Vegas. And by...

I’ve been home for a while and it’s been nice. Though I’ve taken a couple of roadtrips in recent months, my domestic and international travel schedule has been slow. In fact, the last time...

It took fighting brain-splitting traffic, holiday shoppers, a tree salesman with a remedial knowledge of simple machinery, and a new-fangled Christmas tree stand, but by the end of the day, it was, of course,...

There was only one other guy there. He was unkempt. His shirt hung untucked over his gut. The mop on his head hadn’t been cut in some time and it was obvious he’d combed...

A creature of habit, and a habitual creature, I’m back on a rhythm that makes me think 2am is 6pm. The house is quiet enough for sipping beer and turning my noodle inside-out for...

I would convince America to let me be its pool reporter for the new O.J. Simpson book and FOX television interview. It’s not a personal selfishness so much as a desire to keep the...

Update: Come here looking for an answer on the Jimmy Crack Corn Cingular commcerical? All your answers can be found at Jimmy Crack Corn and Cingular is Forced to Care. So, after spending nearly...

It’s pretty clear how Americans feel about marriage. They work–like they have a fever in their gut–to make sure gay people (or any pair of people that isn’t a man and a woman) cannot...

Live Blogging Election Day 2006 I overslept. A squirrel has eaten a goodly portion of our Halloween pumpkin. Overnight brought a cold rain. L’il Otis is suffering from some odd malady that makes it...

A couple of months ago, I watched some bad television magazine piece (I think it was 20/20) about people who are–for whatever reason–not at all interested in sex. They marry other people who are...
