I’m just an MBA candidate

Tuesday, January 15th, 2008

I may only have 4 months of business school education and 6 years of work experience, but something about this scenario just seems to scream “ridiculously poor business practice”:
Jan 12th: Lose cell phone in the city by the bay-ay-AY-ay. (After the lights… went down… in the cit-ay)
Jan 14th: Stroll into AT&T Wireless store, drop $200 […]

Philly.com is a disgrace

Wednesday, June 20th, 2007

The Fightin’ Phils are in the middle of a division race, only two games back from the stumbling, bumbling Mets. Aside from a woeful bullpen, the Phils are loaded with great young talent all over the field. The starting pitching is solid with a burdgeoning ace in Cole Hamels. The infield is loaded with Young […]

That’s some crazy LSAT logic

Monday, April 23rd, 2007

Turner County High School in southern Georgia held its first integrated prom this past weekend. The following quote from a former student is just plain “mind bottling”:
“The white people have theirs, and the black people have theirs. Its nothing racial at all.”
It’s like my mind is trapped in a bottle and it just can’t get […]

Life imitates art

Uncle Eddie: “That’s something ain’t it? She falls in a well, eyes go crossed. She gets kicked by a mule, they go back to normal. I don’t know.”

Lizard licks his eyeball

Thursday, September 14th, 2006

I hope I don’t get hit…. in the reeeeaaaarrrrr again.
Those Geiko commercials kill me, especially the Burt Bacharach one. I realize some people don’t care for them, like C, who squirms everytime she hears about the licking of the eyeball. And my mom, who’s 100% convinced that they’re all celebrity impersonators because there’s no way […]

Engrish Blekfast Tea

Wednesday, September 6th, 2006

The hirrs are arive, with the sound of engrish…
Call it Engrish, call it Chinglish, it’s endlessly fascinating and incredibly entertaining. Here are all the links you need to get you up to speed. I’m a poet and I didn’t even know it.

Earth Sandwich

Saturday, June 3rd, 2006

From ZeFrank: “Never before have two pieces of bread been simultaneously placed on the ground directly opposite each other on the globe, thus making an Earth sandwich. The fact that the Earth has never been a sandwich is probably why things are so f*cked up.”
That’s ridiculous, you say? I’d say you’re obviously living in an […]

The Big HeBowski

Thursday, May 11th, 2006

If you grew up in the early 80s, and are a male, then there are two things you assuredly love: He-Man (from your formative years) and the Big Lebowski (from your college years). Am I right or am I right? Or am I right? Right… right… right.
Anywho… some strange folks at IdiotWork decided to […]

The Italian Stallion

Wednesday, May 3rd, 2006

I’ve been referring to Rocky Balboa as “The Italian Stallion” for pretty much my entire life. All along, I thought the reason for that was because somewhere in the Rocky movies he was referred to by that nickname. Lo and behold, I stumble upon this video and learn that Rocky never had that nickname in […]

My favorite pastime

I think [this] pretty much sums up my typical Friday night.
