the next great city is…

So, when are you guys going to move up here and live near me? [sigh]. In other news, here’s a picture that I took last month of Lindsay Lohan and Van, my accomplice from the FOUR BROTHERS premiere in New York City. Doesn’t Lindsay look pissed off? I think we interrupted her food abstinence party.

praha haha! lmao!

The hurricane passed over my house in Houston this past weekend and left everything intact. I’m hearing there was a minor fender bender with my garage door. I don’t have a flight scheduled to return to check up on it, so hopefully things will hold together (or get fixed). Yesterday I ran the Ben Franklin […]

rita is coming

Watch all the cameras in Houston as the storm approaches. I have to admit it — I’m freaked out. On Monday I was walking out of the courthouse after inquiring about my defensive driving situation. That would be the situation where I’d rather just pay the fine than take the class. I decided I’d still […]

elvis presley’s ssn

Standing on the median at the Houston Intercontinental Airport Terminal C pick-up location, I could only gnash my teeth and seethe at the incompetence that was on display. This guy directing traffic — I like to call him Mr. I Have A Penlight And I Can Use It To Direct Traffic — was accomplishing nothing […]

return to prague

Here’s a change of pace. I decided I’d start publishing my Prague video journals that I filmed starting back on July 26, 2003. I’ve got around two hours of priceless footage — or so my dog tells me. I start off with an introduction given while I’m in a Canadian airport. I had to whisper […]

slight delay

Yesterday I was marveling at how fast and efficient Philadelphia’s SEPTA regional rail system has been for me. Today I was wondering how long the ”switch failure” was going to hold us up. Answer? Fifteen minutes. We miss the bus connection when we’re more than eleven minutes late. This causes people to whine out loud […]

shut down

The following blog post is in honor of the brain crushing headache I’ve had for the last three days, plus as a final anecdote to the memory of the Relationship That Wasn’t Meant To Be™ with the aforementioned totally out of my league slash super-intelligent writer hottie Tisha. There will be no more practicing out […]

$3.16 and rising

Last night I dreamt that Dick Cheney was my boss. I was trying to join a conference call that he was leading and the telephone I was using was stuck on mute. I ended up hearing Cheney bellyaching about how I was late for the meeting. This eventually degraded into a full out assault on […]

hurricane relief

A friend of mine from Houston sent me this CNN interview of a hurricane Katrina survivor in Biloxi, Mississippi. Be warned — this is a heart-wrenching interview. If you have a few dollars to spare then please donate to the Red Cross by clicking here. We now return you to your regularly scheduled Super Genius […]
