You are now setting your eyes upon the glorious World Champions of the “Lap-dog” category of the DDXCWC09 (Doggie Day Cyclocross World Champions 2009). Be afraid, be very afraid.
In the midst of this weekend’s Kruger’s Crossing cyclocross race, was this special doggie event. Although many dog’s entered, only few walked away with the golden collar [...]

Prompting a delightful feature from AllHailTheBlackMarket.com, Abe’s costume for SSCXWC was a mix between 60’s bikers and a leggy albino woman (Photo to the left was modified so viewers could look directly at his legs). It was truly magnificent to see, truly. Although, Abe isn’t the feature of my post…Allhailtheblackmarket, however, is.

With the release of the Apple Magic Mouse, finger use is making a serious comeback! People around the country are finding all new uses for the “Two-finger swipe”. For those of you who haven’t been making it past Second base ( I’ve been hitting 1000 for the past year), the new Apple Magic Mouse will [...]

Somebody forgot to inform the networks that Willsmithmas is actually July 5th, NOT August 30th. Mother effers.

I was asked this week to submit a photo of myself and write a short bio of my achievements for work. Eventually this would be placed on EntercomDigital.com and linked from our super nerdy Dev Blog (check out my post on ReTweets). Of course in my divine irreverence of anything related to professionalism, I submitted [...]

Wait wait wait. Before I type another word, I should really clarify something overlooked in this whole Portland-internet flame war about the recent WebTrends shennanigans. (also see this Webtrends page)
Every single internet troll involved in this is obviously a serious amateur…bantering on and on about how all the cyclists aren’t doing their part and need [...]

The single greatest find at a garage sale in about 3 years. For a whopping $5 this wonderful peice was mine. Yes, it’s black-light paint. Yes, it’s painted velvet. Yes, it’s 4′ wide. Yes, it’s a fan. Yes, it is perfect.

My newest fancy of a project is ThingsThatSmellBad.com. In the painfully oversaturated era of Tumblr blogs with basically no point but to entertain, I thought I might as well throw my hat into the ring. Enjoy.
Oh, and go submit your own sticky smells.

Dear Coca-cola,
Seriously, what the shit? I mean, I’ve seen you take some risks, but nothing too nuts. Nothing like your competition, for the few who can remember Crystal Pepsi (bleeh). You’re classic, just like your name states. Even New Coke was withdrawn when you realized what an atrocity it was. You don’t need to “update” [...]

Google, you never let me down on April 1st. Way to keep the tech world on their toes.
Although I’m starting to think that something along the lines of “AIG Bonus Watch Widget” would have been a funnier April Fools addition to your technological arsenal.

Meet Larisa.
Larisa is unemployed. Larisa is also a college graduate with a Business degree. Undoubtedly, like me, Larisa has student loans or some sort of credit accumulated during the acquisition of said degree. Now Larisa faces the torture of Craigslist scouring, corporate ass-kissery, business card palm greasing, Taco Bell , and daytime TV. Yea, she’s [...]

It’s weird when you see a guy on TBN that looks like your friend Taylor in 30 years.

It’s weirder when you see the Celebrity Look-a-like edition of Family Feud.

I originally saw this at trackosaurusrex and it is possibly the highlight of my day.
Apparently this man of unknown origin was waiting to confront Lance with his bident (sp?) of steroid syringes. Lance did what most of us would probably do when confronted by a comical mascot apparition to confront accusations against us. He pushed [...]

Yea, I said it.

I never thought I’d have to say this, but stabbing that chimp was a bright idea. However, giving him Xanax in his tea? Seriously. We give chimps Xanax in their tea? Really. I don’t even get Xanax in my tea. [...]

The new developments in box wine are pretty awesome, even if box wine itself is rather ‘bleh’.
Box wine singles and the wine can: Yea, like little single juice boxes you can drink with a straw and cans of wine akin to those un-carbonated juice cans. (Kind of reminds me of Caldera who does his IPA [...]

Above is a photo from my recent birthday. As I looked around the room at said party I made an odd realization. Of the two dozen or so who attended, almost half of us were wearing flannel shirts. This, however, was not the first time I had accounted such a large number of flannels. Although [...]

I’ve had exactly 27 birthdays in my life (not including my actual birth). And of those 27, I can easily say that this was one of the best. I celebrated with great friends, great drink, great music, and a great girlfriend.
Through the hours of unofficial Kareoke, break-dance amateur hour, power-slides, frat boy wrastlin’, homophobic man-hugs, [...]

Special thanks to the bootiful Christina (theactualchrist.com) for linking me up to this gem of a website.

Open a browser and search “penis docking” in Google Images…..with SafeSearch off.
For more information on “docking” please see UrbanDictionary.com
Sidenote: Also don’t search Google Images for “blindfold” with SafeSearch off. Actually don’t search with SafeSearch off at all.

CONTENT ADVISORY – NOT FOR THE EASILY OFFENDED
Many times in life we have these instances where we see something or hear something about ourselves and think, “When in the world did I do that?”
For some this is a small bruise after a night of drinking, for others it is reading a brilliant thesis from early [...]

Only in America does it take a diesel truck and hydraulic lift to do the same thing a ladder can accomplish.

I love “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.” I love it a lot. Some may say I love it more than I should. And as one who doesn’t watch much TV, loving a TV show is a big thing for me. I just wanted to highlight some of my favorite It’s Always Sunny moment. Some are [...]

I normally get around to watching the Soup (not Talk Soup) with my roomies at some point during the weekends. The show airs on friday nights, and tends to be a source of amusement on early evening endings or hungover saturday mornings. For those who are unaware of its existence, Soup covers the last week [...]

Okay folk.
So Mark, a colleage and friend, has been pestering me to do a podcast for some time now. He insists that I would be able to entertain people for longer than 5 minutes. While I disagree, I’m going to entertain it.
So, I need your questions. That’s right, your questions. Questions on anything. Questions about [...]

Oh lord, I’m a wonderful, genius strongman.

The movie of the fall! Yes, the movie everyone will be dragging their families to, right?
Hah. I’m not going to trash on the bad acting or terrible writing of this movie. Nay, not the over-simplified plot nor the fact that Kirk Cameron had to bring in his own wife to do a “kiss” scene. I’m [...]

With Halloween approaching in three days, I thought I could help some of you less sexually fortunate people enjoy the holiday. Everybody talks about Halloween as a fun, costumed night of candy collecting and scary stories. But the truth is obvious. Halloween is just another holiday to try and look cool enough to get a [...]

While in Salem this past weekend, I had a chance to get in some Pony fighting. Those wild mother-effers are a handful.
Sidenote: I always thought a Pony was a teenaged horse. Apparently it’s just a “smaller” horse. Check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pony. I guess growing up a little boy who didn’t give two craps about horses really [...]

Maybe the country can learn from this, and we can [...]
