  • Wes Anderson: All You Need to Know

    This American Express commercial teaches you all you need to know about Wes Anderson. It’s also my favourite spot that’s currently on the air (VW’s Big Day spot is still my #1 all-time favourite).

  • Chris Voted Off

    Chris just got voted off of American Idol. Further proof that America is totally borked.

  • Apple vs PC

    Best. Joy of Tech. Evar.

  • Foreign Relations

    This girl could kick my ass. She’s 18 years old, lives in Tel-Aviv, and is a soldier in the Israeli army. I met her today on ICQ. She’s actually a really nice person and I’m glad to have met her. Normally the people that contact me are idiots. Young girls from former Soviet states seem…

  • Five Things You Have Learned on the Job

    I decided to start a new meme (insert requisite apologies here). I’m calling it, “Five Things You Have Learned on the Job That Other People Might Find Useful.” Here’s the deal: think of five things you have learned while on the job. They can be pretty much whatever you want, but they should be things…

  • Liberty Leading the Peeps

    The call was put out and I answered. Not my best work, but it only took me about 25 minutes. And before you ask, the answer is yes, I have much better things to be doing with my time. It’s just that this is more fun.

  • Foxtrot: Paint By Numbers

    Yesterday’s Foxtrot comic had a hilarious paint-by-numbers that requires a calculator to be able to complete. Morah did it and there really is a picture in that mess.

  • The Importance of Set Decoration

    Did anyone else notice the carefully placed production logo on this past Monday’s episode of Prison Break? Let me set it up for you. Michael Scofield (played by Wentworth Miller) dons a guard’s uniform so that he can snoop around the psych ward without anyone asking too many questions. He goes down to the basement…

  • IE7: IE Still Sucks, But It Could Be Worse

    I admit it. I was championing Internet Explorer 7 as Microsoft’s big return to the browser market. After all, IE has been the weak link in the “Big 5” (the Big 5 being IE, FF, SF, OP, and NN. If you don’t know what those mean, you must not be a web designer), so how…

  • Fire, Media, and Politics

    There were two fires in Spokane this morning. They both broke out while most people were still asleep. One of the fires left three families homeless, while the other burned in an unoccupied, unfinished building. If you were the news director, which story would you give greater coverage? The local news decided that covering the…
