You just got служил!

It doesn’t get much better than spending a long weekend in the Poconos. The beauty is stunning and the relaxation is deep.

This is what summer looks like!

Carl Sagan auto-tuned. Turn on, tune in and geek out.

Wow, I already did one post today (my first in quite some time) and now I’m going for a record setting TWO posts?!?  I just turned the blogging world UPSIDE-DOWN.

Anyhow, the Consumerist wrote last week about a for-real-real version of a Tracy Jordan Meat Machine Sandwich.  It appears to involve bacon, cheese, a creamy dressing and FRIED-FUCKING-CHICKEN FOR BREAD.

Now I’m not claiming to be Professor Health Food here, I love me some fried food just as much as any other gravy-blooded American, but there has to be a point at which we say “This far, no further!” Is an inside-out, breadless, fried chicken sandwich really what America is craving?

Of course it is!  After all, it’s Atkins friendly.

I’m an Apple fanboy, I admit it.  Once a staunch PC guy and open critic of Apple products, I have completely converted to the dark.  So it should come as no surprise that I am totally oggling the iPad the like a hungry castaway oggles his fellow shipwreckees.  Beautiful design, intuitive interface, shiny, what’s not to love?

So while poking around for ways to win an iPad (who wants to pay $500 for Gen 1?) I came across the latest from the Will It Blend gang.  It was only a matter of time, and yes it’s a little painful/hilarious to watch.

My shiny new Thesis install is done, but I’m still playing with all the bells and whistles.  So far though, it’s pretty sweet.  I’m sure the look will be continuously changing for a while, but I’m very pleased so far.

Anyway, here’s a little holiday cheer- Boston Style

Last week I received an email from my hosting company, NetProHosting, that they were closing their doors. It’s a shame, they were super cheap and I never had any trouble with them.

The sadder news is that I’ve spent a week migrating everything to my other host, hence the crappy default WP theme you see now.

I’ll be upgrading to the Thesis theme this week and tweaking the look fr a while after that. Until then, enjoy the amateur look and feel of the blog.

Chris and Kelly - just married

So yeah, I got married.

I’m serious!  We exchanged rings and everything.

Elvis was there.

Hail to the King, Baby

I first came across this on The Sneeze (or was it Retrocrush?) a couple years ago.  It still makes me delightfully uncomfortable.

Happy Holidays, everyone!!!

I consider myself to be a fairly well spoken guy.  As someone who reads my blog, I hope you not only enjoy the things I have to say, but the way I say them as well.  I’m not a stickler for grammar or vocab, but I try to keep things sounding at least somewhat intelligent.

This morning I saw a post from my friend Miss604, about Wordle.  Wordle will analyze your blog feed and create a word cloud of its content.

Sounds cool right?

Imagine my dismay at seeing that one of the most common words used here is “like”.

I’m praying it’s the affectionate form, and not the mindless filler form…
