I am Legend: The movie review from somebody that isn’t crazy (No Spoiler)

December 15th, 2007 at 11:24 pm » Comments (1)

So I went to the 11 o’clock showing of this movie on Friday December 15th with my wonderful girlfriend. First of all, I want everybody to know that this is ZOMBIE MOVIE. It seems to me that the previews didn’t get that across very well. At first I thought it was going […]



Awkward Social Situations Part 1

December 15th, 2007 at 3:16 pm » Comments (0)

So I tend to over analyze things. That tends to make things a little awkward sometimes, for me anyway. The other person may feel the same way, but more than likely, doesn’t have a clue about what I am thinking. I digress,so I will get to the point.
We’ve all been walking […]



Black History Month - It’s Important

December 15th, 2007 at 2:29 pm » Comments (0)

I am not going to say that I work with the most brilliant of people, because I don’t. In fact, my coworker has to be one of the most insecure, uninformed people I’ve ever met in my life.
In the course of starting to work in a new division at work a few months ago, […]

Rice Rockets: Turning compact commuter cars into impractical noise makers

December 12th, 2007 at 9:50 pm » Comments (0)

So insurance rates on Honda Civics are unusually high. Why? Because kids are choosing to modify them for the purposes of turning them into race cars. The car is just over 100 Horsepower, yet it sounds louder than big trucks. That must mean that the car is fast right? Not […]

There are a lot of things out there that are annoying, bad drivers, slow talkers, etc. However, today I have to say that bad trends caught my eyes:
1. Short shorts or skirts with UGG boots!
This is a concept that is beyond my grasp. It’s Southern California. It doesn’t […]



When did everybody tun into experts? And when did they become so stupid?

December 11th, 2007 at 11:03 pm » Comments (0)

There are some people in this word that know everything. Sometimes I will ask one of these people a question that I am not positive of the answer to. Occasionally I will have a good idea of the answer, but simply want to check my own memory. Then somewhere between 3 seconds […]

I recently came accross the following cartoon by Clay Bennett (www.claybennett.com). It really spoke to me and inspired me to write a little piece.

This cartoon suggests that global warming and nuclear power are both monsters. However, as with anything in life, a choice must be made. In the case of this […]



Being Southern in California, Part I

December 8th, 2007 at 11:33 pm » Comments (1)

So, something that I’ve noticed in California that is just absurd to me is how Californian’s interpret Southern cooking. I primarily say this in terms of corn bread. There are places that are popping up saying they are original ‘Southern Cooking.’ PFFT is what I say to that. The primary thing that I […]
