I usually don’t write reviews for events I actually enjoyed, but two nights ago (3/2 I had the liberty of seeing Do Make Say Think live, and I feel compelled to express my opinions about the show since I was so taken by this performance. To say I received my $15’s (ticket price) [...]

I believe I’ve figured it all out.
Every time Congress is investigating the current administration, there is a widespread attack of memory loss. They suddenly can’t remember talking to other staff members, emails they sent, letters given, meetings, etc. Alberto Gonzales can’t remember if he was involved with the firings of the attorneys, his assistant doesn’t [...]

Last weekend sucked. Six unexceptional movies came out and butted heads with one another, none of them succeeding in drawing in much of an audience. This weekend is probably going to be a much easier choice. It all comes down to whether you feel like a kids movie, a thriller, or a comedy. Or, if [...]

There is a certain time of year when 50 degrees seems pleasant and weak afternoon sunlight streaming through your lager reminds you of laying out by the pool with a daiquiri. As the weather becomes less ferocious, we’re all looking for one thing: outdoor happy hour.
Yesterday, we hit up Abilene on Court Street, [...]

Myspace could not have asked me a more appropriate question this morning as I hastily added four presidential candidates to my extremely exclusive friends list. Sometimes politicians have a hard time recognizing the difference between irony and genuine support. So I didn’t add Mitt Romney. If I did, I’m pretty sure that would legally bind [...]

I post in response to a recent New York Magazine article whose subject matter rendered me shocked and appalled. It inquires, “Can Human Giant Save MTV?” an incredibly bold and misguided question not because the answer might be no, but because it assumes that MTV needs to be saved in the first place.
Human Giant, [...]

After a lovely Sunday afternoon of walking around the neighborhood, drinking outside and playing Scrabble at Abilene (Jonathan, I apologize, “wino” is actually in the OED), I returned home, put on my pajamas and opened up a fresh Netflick. My roommate was on the way to his shift at the Park Slope Coop, and I [...]

Well, this settles it. I have an unhealthy new Monday night activity. Where I used to go out drinking like a normal person, I now make dinner and watch network TV like a total sociopath. My thoughts on the new episode of Dancing With the Stars below.
At least they didn’t start blogs.
Leeza and Tony
This episode [...]

Friend:
I’m not completely positive we’re arguing about the same thing here, but I will fight back nevertheless.
I am well aware of the fact that Jordan Catalano had his faults. He totally dissed Angela when she sought him out at the Buffalo Tom show, although in his defense, I would have too (remember how she [...]

Reck: I’m writing a Jared Leto dissenting opinion right now.
Johnb: Excellent. Though, I don’t know how.
Reck: It’s too easy.
Johnb: How is that going to be easy? My arguments are rock solid.
Reck: Ha. You wish. I will take them apart like so many lincoln logs.
Johnb: Let the debate begin.
I hate to break this to you, Johnb, [...]
