A Quick Bite of Info, and a Roll of the Dice

So, we’ll do the first…first. Shocking…no. You may all recall that, when I first left ATS, my first step was to blind fire a couple of resumes off to a couple of airport cargo brokers, one of which was BBE. Well, out of the blue, wanna guess who called me on Tuesday? No…no…it wasn’t Gilbert

The Deification of Bill

I am constantly baffled by the buildup of Bill Clinton. I mean, it’s fairly common these days to hear some comment, whenever he pops up in the news, about how he’s a great man, or one of the greatest presidents of all time. I keep hoping, in fact, that after that ridiculous snippet of crap

Well, Look at That

SHOCKING. SHOCKING. My owed money has magically appeared in my bank account. I’m sure it had nothing at all to do with me deciding to play hardball, and winging a heater at their braincase. Yeah…nothing at all. Anyway, I FINALLY can say I am completely free and clear from ATS. Nothing else to deal with.

Sir Schmoopy of Awesometon

Already having long enjoyed the video game reviews of Yahtzee Croshaw on The Escapist web site, I have now discovered Unforgotten Realms. Watch as 2 people try to play an RPG…he’s a wizard…named Sir Schmoopy…based on known magician Abe Lincoln…armed with nunchuks…because he won’t be able to hit anything, but goddamn, will he die awesome.

Every Time I’m OUT…They Pull Me Back IN! …Oh look, an update!!!

Thank you, Al Pacino. While Godfather 3 wasn’t as good as the other 2, for a variety of reasons, it did have some fantastic scenes, and lines, within it. I also don’t mind the ending…I think it was kind of fitting that it isn’t Sonny who pays the price in the end for the life

Hey Hey, it’s an Update!

Well, not much, but since Liam asked, he (and everyone else unfortunate/bored enough to read) will receive. New job started. Uhhh…spent a lot of time driving a…it’s either a 1/2 ton or 3/4 ton…flatbed truck around the city and the surrounding area. Did some shipping/receiving. Had a chunk of today off due to the truck

More Video Hilarity!

Jesus, I keep finding links to this stuff all over the forums I frequent. Anyway, this was an ad Nike ran in the late 90′s during the whole McGwire-Sosa home run battle. It has 2 pitchers, Tom Glavine and Greg Maddux (for the non-sportos…Maddux might be the best pitcher of the past 30 years, and

Full Metal Jacket & Santa’s Elves

I had noted this in the Google Reader side column, but it’s so goddamn funny, it deserves a post. Somebody spliced footage from Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer with dialogue from Full Metal Jacket, and did a really good job. I chuckle until the point where the head elf demands to see Hermy’s war face,

Look out! Zombies!

Haha, scared you, didn’t I? Actually, that whole intro premise is so lame, I have most definitely frightened myself. Well…not so much frightened as revolted…egh. So, just a quick little Book Review I thought I’d throw up here. The book is called World War Z by Max Brooks. It’s sort of a…I’m not entirely certain
