Just when you think you’ve seen it all. Supposedly, tossing your baby off a 50 foot shrine onto an outstretched blanket will bring the lil’ one good luck and improved health for years to come. Heck, if this can be proven then, boy, do I have a solution for the US health care system! […]

1,347 Quills!

What do you get when you add one bull terrier and a porcupine? A face full of pain. Supposedly, the dog encountered the porcupine in the backyard of his/her home. Luckily, the dog survived.
I received the photos via an email chain so I do not know the owners of the photos. If these […]

Exactly what he said!

I found this blog post from the Washington Wizard’s Gilbert Arenas, a.k.a Agent Zero, rather interesting (at some level)…
From Gilbert Arenas’s NBA blog post, “There Are No Such Thing as Shark Attacks”:
“I know this is random, but I just want to clear this up for people out there. There are these things called shark […]

Wet Your Whistle for Free!

The downside? You have to ride a train…
What do you get when you couple a ride on Amtrak and a free $100 drink coupon? An excrutiating long and drunk trip from Chicago to LA on America’s railways.

Ok, so I had to post this pic. It’s a couple days old but are you &^%$ kidding me? I’m all about the “toros” getting their licks in, turning people into human shishkabobs and pancakes, but this picture puts it over the top. What I want to know is how the horn came out? I […]

Mutts Rejoice!

Recently, my sister sent me an article from the June 24, 2007 edition of the L.A. Times entitled, ‘Decoding the secret lives of dogs‘. It seems as though the age old question, “What kind of dog is that?” can finally be answered. Through the miracle of science, DNA testing can now be applied […]

The Police @ The Friendly Confines

So last Friday night I hit the Police concert at Wrigley Field in Chicago. The atmosphere was great. Amid a backdrop of Wrigley’s ivy covered walls and the Chicago skyline, a monstrous stage stretched from left center to right centerfield, towering towards the sky. The weather cooperated, offering up 75 degrees and […]

Tossing the bolas

As we head deeper into the summer months, backyard BBQs and weekend get-togethers seem as abundant as this year’s Cicada swarm. As a kid, I remember playing games like Wiffle Ball, “flashlight tag” and “sharks and minnows” (if you were lucky enough to have a friend with a pool). As I entered […]
