Buy Or Don’t Buy

So there’s this thing called global warming. Last year and even a few months ago, the global warming warners were saying “hey, you have to act now to stop global warming or your children and your children’s children will be in peril!”
Well, I don’t want my children or children’s children to be in peril! So [...]

So Muxtape is back. As previously reported, muxtape was a site to create mixtapes of any song you uploaded. There were search features! It wasn’t social so it even worked for a hermit like myself. But the RIAA stepped in and ruined everything.
Well, it did put a damper on things. But muxtape is back. But [...]

I really thought New York has become a haven of cleanliness and safety. Only a few months ago, I thought the subways would become amusement parks! But I was wrong, oh so wrong. Besides Brooklyn reverting to it’s 1970-1980’s alter-ego, Crooklyn, the subways are also losing their safe appeal (if there ever was one).
Now, it’s [...]

In the interest of full-disclosure, I was recently laid off as an editor/blogger at a start-up. On one very surreal Friday the boss-fellow called a meeting and told the majority of the staff (yours truly included) that due to the economic apocalypse, our time at the company was over.
And after a resume-revamping weekend (where it [...]

I thought I lost my debit card recently. Of course, in the panic of discovering it was missing, and the prospect of losing all the money in my account, I called the bank to cancel my card. I was relieved there had been no charges on it since the last time I remember [...]

When it comes to trash/trashy T.V., I am all for it. It could really just be about how to get venereal diseases and I’ll be watching it every Sunday night (I love “Rock Of Love”), but lately, there are some new shows that just seem, dare I say… unwatchable. Dun dun dun. But biggest issue [...]

The Fuck You, Penguin blog is best read from the ground up.
This guy hates cute animals.

The posts aren’t as fun in January, maybe because he ran out of cute animal pics. And started marketing the t-shirts. Kinda ruins the flow of the blog.
But check out “How come there is only one set of footprints, [...]

What I’d really like to do is write a big gushy post about how much I love Bruce Springsteen, but I’ll spare you. Instead I will simply offer up the song he wrote for the Mickey Rourke star vehicle The Wrestler. It’s classic Bruce, aka great. It also won a Golden Globe [...]

Oscar nominations just came out, and I have to say, you could not find a more Oscar-y crop if you tried. Of the five Best Picture Nominees:
-three are adaptations of novels or short stories
-one is an adaptation of a play
-two are biopics
-four are period pieces
-three are directed by men who have previously been nominated for [...]

While most of the time George Bush’s jokes were on him, or about him, but mostly unintentional; now, we got Obama! He makes jokes, not about himself so much, but about situations. He’s got zingers! He rolls with the punches! He’s a cool dude!
After the latest “Oopsies” (the inaugration flubbing), people were crying foul play, [...]
