Me: Whatcha reading?
B: Trying to finish Twilight again.
Me: Ah. Did they kill him this time?
B: Nope, not this time.
Me: Well, maybe next time.
B: Wouldn't that be awesome?
Me: "Man, these eBooks are amazing!"

This Might Be The Year I Give Up on Dick Clark
You’re at the family Christmas/Memorial Day/Fourth of July Party, you’ve got a great buzz going, everybody’s having fun, and then someone says “Hey, did you see Great-Grandma yet?” Suddenly, your good vibes go out the window as you go to spend time with the 97-year-old matriarch of the family. It’s not that you don’t want to see her; you love her with all...
Resolutions
More on-air moments like this morning.
Grow a sweet-ass goatee.
Wow
Don was concerned that we’d struggle down the stretch. Turns out, the 3 hours went by so fast, we still had a ton of stuff we never got to. It was an absolute blast, and I got some awesome feedback… not only in my e-mail, but even from some tumblrinos (jheath and andeerae tuning in!).
The kind of day that reminds you why you got into this crazy biz in the first place.

LISTEN, GUYS!
PLEASE?

aaaahaahhahaaha but seriously f the maple leafs
So this is what it's come to? Opening pistachios...
Eh, I wasn’t doing a whole lot with that self-worth anyways.
HAY GUYS
I’m filling in for the morning show tomorrow morning, along with one of the guys I do the Sunday night show with. It would be really cool if you listened.
6am-9am (EST), you can stream it on wspd.com.

Why I Never Get Anything Done
In an effort to get out from underneath the pile of crap I’m dealing with at work, I stayed up until 2am last night writing out the major problems, the minor problems, and the steps to get it all taken care of. Not exactly a GTD bit, but enough to get out of that feeling of being overwhelmed.
I get in today, with a clear plan of what to do, and it gets immediately tossed out the window for...

This essay on the “Star Wars” prequels in the L.A. Times may change how you feel about the films, which it kinda did for me, but still—there’s no way to overlook shoddy acting and writing, regardless of how masterful George Lucas may have been in assembling his saga. Not that George Lucas cares, BTW.
Well, after reading through the article, sounds like...
One of these days, when someone is doing the fluff interview of an actor, or an athlete, or a politician, when they ask “What do you like to do in your spare time?”, that person is going to answer “Smoke a lot of weed.”
And it’s going to be hilarious.
The CBJ-Minnesota Game Tonight
It’s on Versus.
Steve Mason is in net.
They’re wearing the Cursed Thirds.
6-1 Wild. Clutterbuck gets a hat trick because the D can’t stop laughing at his name.
I Forgot to Mention...
My stepdad wanted to buy a new turntable for my mom, since her old record player died out recently.
He bought her a Stanton. Might have been a little bit of overkill.
The "Big Hauls"
Thanks to all the extra work I’ve been picking up at the station, we were actually able to splurge a little on Christmas.
Ella got her DS, finally. We warned her, however, that it is a heavily controlled substance. This is not a “take it to a family function so you can sit on the couch and cover your face with it” thing. It’s a “reward for good behavior”...
So I have to downgrade my WiFi security to allow my daughter’s new DS to get online?
I thought we were past all this now, world?
UPDATE: Ahh, dd-wrt, is there nothing you can’t do?
Who is vacuuming at 1am on Christmas Eve?!

I can’t help but think that every time I load up Bejeweled Blitz on Facebook, I hear a tiny voice inside my computer case say “Here I am, brain the size of a planet…”
Me: Are there any good Christmas songs in Latin?
Boss: I don't think the Romans got around to celebrating that.
Me: Oh, yeah. They just called it "That time we killed that guy."
Boss: No, that's Easter.
