Jessie update
Filed in blog, Sat, 27 May 2006, 9:56 amOkay, let’s get the important stuff out of the way. Jessie is still in pain. He’s lost a lot of weight. But he hasn’t given up - so neither can I. I know that sounds a tad overdramatic, but Teddy deteriorated so quickly there was no alternative to try to save him. He would have [...]
Update backlog
Filed in blog, Fri, 26 May 2006, 12:08 pmI seriously need to post a bunch today. Even this first one is a couple hours late. But everybody wants to know about the same things - how’s Jessie doing, how’s the wedding plans, how’s the house, oh, and how am I. That last one is of course at the bottom. I’ve got to cover [...]
Invincible
Filed in blog, Wed, 24 May 2006, 2:07 pmYes, it is the oft-done tale of a small-time nobody making it in the big leagues, but that doesn’t change the fact that Invincible uses my beloved Eagles and the city of Philly as the backdrop. Which means that I will actually be rushing to the theaters to watch a guy-cry flic. Check out the [...]
The Evolution of Dance
Filed in blog, Tue, 23 May 2006, 11:01 amI’m sure most of you have already seen this one - even one of my sisters sent me this link. But it took me until today to finally watch the entire thing. Brilliant! And mad bonus points for including “Jump On It”/”Apache”. Plus, I really wanted to try out embedding a YouTube video.
Now I’m All Over The Shop
Filed in blog, , 10:29 amSometimes you just come across a song that is so perfectly composed, so exquisitely catchy, so… just… everything, that you can play it 20 times in a row and still want more. Recent examples for me would be The Postal Service’s “Such Great Heights,” Bloc Party’s “Banquet,” Feist’s “Mushaboom,” The Black Keys’s “10 A.M. Automatic,” [...]
What’s up on the Interweb?
Filed in blog, Wed, 17 May 2006, 5:08 pmI’ve been holding back on a ton of links as if some special Link Day were going to come along and save me. Anywho, it’s time for me to clear out some of the crap I keep losing in tabs these days:
- I really want to renovate my basement as a bar/entertainment area. Somehow, I [...]
Whole Foods
Filed in blog, , 11:32 amI need to send a shout out to the wonderful folks at Whole Foods. I’ve been a big fan of the WF since we moved to Montclair and found one 2 minutes away from us. Sure, it can be a little pricey - but you get what you pay for. And at Whole Foods I [...]
The political “Oh Snap” for the evening
Filed in blog, Tue, 16 May 2006, 9:18 pmMe: That’s right, the presidential express - I mean presidential address - was on tonight… The presidential express, not to be confused with the Starlight Express.
Lisa: Which also bombed.
Woman
Filed in blog, Thu, 11 May 2006, 9:41 amFor some reason Lisa isn’t keen on the idea of using Wolfmother’s “Woman” as our wedding song. Back me up, isn’t it just perfect?
Alright, as an alternative we could use “White Unicorn.” The only trick at that point is trying to last over 5 minutes on the dance floor and having to choreograph moves to [...]
From good to bad to worse to impossible
Filed in blog, , 12:45 amSo the weekend started out well. At least Sunday was cool. I almost completely forgot it was the 7th of May, and would have spent the day lounging on my butt in front of the TV if not for a sudden realization that the Hoboken Art and Music Festival was that day. As life has [...]
