UNDER THE GUN AND OVER THE HILL
I am not black.  I have had weird gray hair since I was 14 years old.  And that’s exactly why I loved the documentary “Good Hair” by Chris Rock. LOVED this movie. Really great on a number of levels. It was equal parts fascinating, hilarious, and educational.  Seriously.  I was going to post the trailer, but it gives away too many great jokes that are in the film. AND RUINING...

SMALL TERRORS
Tonight I was in line at the supermarket behind a girl who’s credit card didn’t work.  Then her ATM card wasn’t approved.  Then they not only had to call a manager over the loudspeaker to come do an “override”, but the cashier lady called across like 3 aisles to “Sarkes”, an old wrinkled man, to “put this woman’s items away.”  The girl...

WatchWatch
Who hasn’t heard of the amazing TED talks?  Hopefully no one - and now, not you.  If an alien came to Earth and I was trying to explain the internet to them, TED.com would be the first thing I would demonstrate: It’s humans helping and explaining things to other humans.  Some funny, some sad, some complicated, some simple - but always compelling and brilliant.  I probably watch more of...

BIRTHDAY SECRETS
Thanks to everyone who came out to wish me a happy birthday last night!  I had a fantastic time - even though I drank more Chinese whiskey than any mortal ever should. Ugh. In lieu of presents, I asked everyone to anonymously write down a secret about themselves that no one else knows. Whether we mean to or not, we all lead secret lives - and I think the things we don’t tell each other...

Blastin Holes In The Night Til She Bled Sunshine
Whether it’s a hotel driving a man crazy with images of dead twins or the pale of the full moon changing a man into a raccoon (Werecoon?) I’m a huge fan of anything horror.  From a very young age, I devoured anything and everything scary that I could get my hands on - and that continues even now; last week, I finished reading the zombie compilation The Living Dead (it was sweet), and...

Hands Up For The Grand Finale
My birthday is Friday.  I have gotten into the habit of throwing giant parties on my odd years, and this is one of those.  Right now, my plans include a fishbowl, $200 in cash, and a lot of secrets. You know; like any good party has. ;) I was going to start the night at this restaurant where you eat in complete darkness, but they’re all booked up. As a replacement, I’m considering...
