My New Year’s Resolutions

In a fit of originality, I’ve decided to post 10 of my resolutions for the upcoming year. I should probably include something about not using lists to avoid having to really think about what I’m writing, but I just wouldn’t be human if I eliminated all of flaws. I did take the numbers [...]

Don’t look back in anger

As we drop the curtain on another year, it’s time to go introspective.  Here’s my 10 questions raised by events of 2007.  Good luck to everyone in 2008.

Does it really matter who we elect president?  We’re still over 10 months away from elections, there’s been more debates than anyone can remember, there’s more candidates raising [...]

Kindergarten Christmas Programs

Because today was the first day of my Christmas vacation and Manda had to work, I was charged with attending her son’s Christmas program. The conversation went like this:

A: Hey, could you go to Alien’s Christmas program on Friday? It’s during work for me.
M: Sure, that sounds like fun. [...]

Holding a gun to Santa’s head.

Someday, we’ll address the fact that my posts have been forced to follow a myriad of topics that fall into the ‘tough act to follow’ category.  But I don’t mind.  I relish the challenge like Joey Chestnut relishes a Nathan’s Famous.  And since this is the last Friday before Christmas, it’s time for me to [...]

What’s That Lassie? Joboo’s in Trouble?

A lot of people ask me about my process. Ok, that’s a dirty lie; nobody asks me about my process. Hell, I don’t even know a lot of people. But humor me, ok? Otherwise I’ll just make these paragraphs longer.

Anyway, about my process. I generally try to post at least [...]

Dirty Haiku

This week, I’m honoring a request by none other than Joboo. He wanted a donkey punch dirty haiku. So, with the help of Eric, I give you my first collaborative dirty haiku:

need a little boost
Donkey Punch in your bitch head
anal squeezing wheee!

My Name is Bruce

Look, I can’t do this justice, so I’ll just say that when a release date is set, I’m there.

Here’s the trailer:

I can’t breathe, and my crotch is warm.

Judge Orders Monkey Returned to Bipolar Owner in Fort Worth

First off, this is a great headline.

Second off, I don’t know which is the insult, or which is the injury. On the one hand, the monkey is being sent back to the roller coaster ride of living with, and relying on, a bipolar person. Every day will be punctuated by the highest of [...]

Taking crack one step further.

As I was taking my stroll along the digital yellow brick road that is the internet the other day, I stumbled upon a story that caught my attention.  That was the purpose of my mental stroll so I wasn’t shocked, but I still feel compelled to share.  It was Time Magazines top 10 oddball stories [...]

Wish Harry Were Here

If Harry Caray were alive today, this would both delight and horrify him. That’s right, my beloved Cubs have signed Kosuke Fukudome.

Now I won’t discuss whether or not it’s worth it for the organization to spend $48 million on a dinged-up outfielder from Japan. Instead, let’s get into his name. It’s [...]
