Here’s my quick list of 5 signs that your upcoming Valentine’s Day may fall short of spectacular, lover boy: You’ve watched more than 3 episodes of Battlestar Galactica in the past year. You put “in a relationship” on your Facebook profile, even though you’re single. Your girlfriend can be repaired with a little duct tape …
Wordplay
Has anyone seen the ads for this anti-depressant medication called aripiprazole? You probably have, even if you don’t realize it. That’s because in the ad, they refer to its trade name, Abilify. I’m not making light of a serious mental condition (in fact, I probably have a few myself), but that has to be just …
What recession?
It’s getting bad, folks. Why, just a couple of weeks ago, President Bush even lost his job. http://www.instantrimshot.com/rimshot.swf However, not everyone is feeling the pinch of the current economic slump. For instance, those guys who stand on street corners holding “Going Out of Business” signs certainly seem to be getting a lot of work lately. Rimshot …
Young whipper-snappers!
When I was a kid, adults used to bore me to tears with their tedious diatribes about how hard things when they were growing up. How they had to walk 25 miles to school every morning, uphill, barefoot, both ways. Yada, yada, yada. I remember promising myself that when I grew up, I wouldn’t lay …
C’est lamour…
Ginny, Logan, and I were Wal-Marting (it’s a verb, look it up) yesterday, and I decided to pop over to the greeting card aisle to grab a card for my dad, whose birthday is this week.

Our boy, Schrenker (apparently during happier times) According to reports, Schrenker was in financial hot water over his businesses and …
As seen at Old Navy
Ginny and I were starting finishing our holiday shopping yesterday at our local Old Navy, when I noticed this in-store ad: Old Navy jeans: Now with 2 leg openings! I’ll wager these outsell the one-leg opening style was all the rage last year. I suppose that makes sense, considering most customers have two legs. - …
I’m not dead yet!
Redmond, Wa. - In a statement released today by Microsoft, the software giant announced that it will begin the planned phase-out of Greg by the end of 2008. Ironcially, the statement comes on the 34th anniversary of the product's initial launch. Greg has been a stalwart Microsoft program since the early days of Windows 3.0 and …
A blogger looks at 100001
I turned 33 this past week, folks, and I realized that I'm getting old much faster than I ever suspected I would. I have a theory about this phenomenon, and you're going to hear about it, whether you like it or not. You see, when you're five, a year represents a sizeable chunk of …
