I was debating if I would carry on the mascots thing as a series, as suggested by fellow writer Mr.X (cool guy, go check out his stuff). As I continued to play with the idea, I was suddenly inspired two weeks ago when I was shooting the UCLA football game and I ran into the [...]

Jack Kerouac was a staunch conservative, religiously and politically; this is not the memory of him idolizing teenagers prefer to dwell on. I was hesitant to post this clip of William F. Buckley’s “Firing Line” because Kerouac is clearly drunk, but I believe it speaks to the issue of cultural memory. Kerouac, and the Beatnik [...]

In the spirit of Noam Chomsky’s optimism that I rambled on about earlier this week, I’ve been re-examining old projects that I had previously invested a lot of time and resources, and then subside for whatever reasons: possibly lethargy, more likely due to my busy social calendar. Regardless, this is an introduction to my psychogeography [...]

I am from the West Coast. Most places around here are shiny and new, it’s a younger part of the country than the rest. Once upon a time, I ventured to the midwest, near Chicago and lived in a little house that I adored. It had a full basement, attic and it was old. The [...]

I wish I was a kid again just so I could get one of these badass lofts. These would be perfect for your dorm room and/or office. Tumidei is an Italian furniture design company that has been around since the 1950’s. They have a wide variety of products including beds, lofts, and chairs. If you want [...]

Nov 4th. Vote.

I think I am letting off more pheromones than usual lately…unless I suddenly woke up and was just 10 times more attractive than ever before. But I still look the same to me.
The past week has been odd. I have been asked to spin around by two drunk guys outside my work so [...]

I live in Lake Forest; a California city housed in Orange County. Population 78,020, median income $74,084 and is the 10th safest city in the United States. Over-sized vehicles with “I’m a Proud Parent of an Honor Student” stickers can often be seen driving through beautifully, manicured neighborhoods.
I was pulling up towards a red light [...]

Forget researching ways to cure cancer, diabetes, lupus or alopecia. Let’s focus on building more churches. Let’s make sure we make them bigger. Forget improving our child adoption system. Forget housing the people homeless. Forget our education system. Pretty much FUCK everything. We need more churches.

So it has been a while since I have posted, but now I am back on track and ready share with you all the cool items I come across on a daily basis.
To start off with, Sydney based clothing brand Supply is an exquisite collaboration of creativity and style. Backed by their multi-label clothing store, [...]

I was checking out the stats for the site just now. I decided to check out the list of cities that we get visitors from and I came across this city.

Where the fuck is Rough And Ready!?!? It’s not like people choose what city they are from, it’s automatically done by the site. Sooooo yeah. [...]

I’m currently reading a book titled “The Chomsky-Foucault Debate on Human Nature,” which circles around a debate that was held in Holland in 1971 and was hosted by Dutch thinker Fons Elders as part of a series of debates he staged that brought together philosophers from differing reservoirs of twentieth-century thought; it sounds much more [...]

Fear is the government’s most powerful tool. Shoot, think about it, it’s the most powerful tool for humans. How many times did mom tell you that your eyes would stay crossed if you made that face? How many times have we heard that if we don’t go to college then we will be failures? How [...]

The traffic was normal. I was on the 5 North on my way to a terribly, underwhelming errand. There was a white BMW in front of me. I’m driving along, VROOOOOOOM! And then it happened, I saw a skinny man hand reach out of his car window to expel trash. Yes! It was so casual [...]

So Thursday October, 23rd I went to this event at Cinespace in Hollywood that was put on by Reelzchannel.com. It was also sponsored by Perfect Vodka and Jetset Energy Drinks. Apparently the event was like a salute to directors kind of thing, because they were playing clips from movies, and interviews with different actors. It [...]

McCain supporters are some bright ass people….

Here is where McCain says “Cunt” hahaha. Don’t worry. I am not saying he is not a good candidate just because he pulls a Bush and can’t give a speech.

And none of the people in the background even noticed. Oh joy.

A few months back I was leaving work. And by work I mean grinding bails of hay while wearing tiny jean shorts, cowboy boots, and a piece of cloth that my bosses called a shirt. This all took place at a trainwreck called ‘Rockin Country Nights’ at the Whiskey-a-gogo.
They called us the GoGo Cowgals and [...]

Have you ever been to a birthday party with a bunch of actors and singers and dancers? If not, I highly recommend not to. Don’t get me wrong, I have a lot of fun at this birthday but I really hate when you go to a party where people feel the need to show that [...]

I should probably not be left alone with both my debit card and a computer with an internet connection. Ever. Shopping is hard enough for me to escape when it involves (usually) showering, getting dressed, driving, getting out of the car, etc. But online? Way too easy to drink four beers and buy 17 tank [...]

They fuck with people so they don’t go out and vote. I don’t know what makes us think that our vote will actually count. Remember when Bush took office?! I don’t understand how we, as a nation, don’t say shit about some of the things our government does. Gas prices hit $5 a gallon, nobody [...]

Lately, cute vintage cloche hats? are making scene-stealing cameos. Could it be because style icon Angelina Jolie sports this pretty vintage-inspired hat in her new film Changeling? Or maybe it’s just a respectful nod to the flapper fashions of way back when. John Galliano even interprets this ’20s trend on Christian Dior’s fall couture runway!

I?dig [...]

Thanks to my good friend Mr.X, we’ve come across the sequel to the violent and savage beating of children. For those of you just tuning in, allow me to fill you in. I came across a video on YouTube, or as I like to call it, my portal into how dumb some people can be, [...]

I don’t work in a bar. I work in a restaurant that is next door to a bar, in which I procure a wide range of alcoholic beverages for my customers’ consumption. So I spend a bit of the time I am at work in the bar.
The same people sit there all day and all [...]

I love Bill Maher. His show is hilarious and he is obviously very intelligent and well-spoken. He can be mysoginistic at times, which bothers me, but he obviously doesn’t understand women at all, and I can look past it. I also loved Religulous, for the most part. Religious fanatics are taking over the country as [...]

Over the weekend I traveled home to the land of corn and cows, Nebraska. I usually enjoy my short trips home, as long as that’s what they are…short. What I don’t like is the long, annoying flight that takes me on my short, enjoyable trips. These were no exception to my hard and fast travel [...]
