Genius.
I’m not a musical fan, nor really a big fan of Joss Whedon (mostly liked Firefly, never liked Buffy), but this is genius.
Their site is actually down today - Act One (of Three) came out and their streaming server checked out due to load, but it is available through iTunes now, and I don’t regret […]

Thank fucking god*. The wheels of justice turn slowly, but at least they’re still turning.
Some of these poor sods have been holed up there for more than six years. And while I’m certain that some of them are evil motherfuckers, I think we all know that there are very, very likely some that were probably […]

I’ve loved every version of GTA from the first I played on the original Playstation (A game where the object is to steal cars and commit crime? No way!)
I’ve said for years that I would buy a PS3 or Xbox360 based on which played GTA:IV best. I went PS3 in a close heat (I already […]

For as long as I’ve been snowboarding there, Tyrol Basin has an annual belt sander race in the bar (the bar itself being among the best at any ski hill anywhere) near the end of the season. This year’s was yesterday, March 9, 2008.

As I’ve posted previously, we’re American Idol fans.
Last season, Melinda, a professional backup singer before Idol, was the picture of consistency. Every night she belted out a perfect song, and I personally think she should have won. However, every night you’d usually see someone else put on a performance that was an equal or near […]

I don’t know what I just squished my right foot into. I expect from the right leg is where the tentacles will begin to enter my torso when it begins to spread.
I let the mutt out and on the way to make a deposit in the back yard, she managed to shake off her little […]

My namesake is dead… no, not the Jon Stewart who comes up when you google "John Stewart" (dammit, people, can’t you spell?). No, not me.
This one:
The one who wrote "Daydream Believer" for the Monkees.
The one who was in the Kingston Trio.
The one to whom a few emails were intended, but were sent to me.
Rest in […]

Suz and I tried out a new restaurant in Madison recently, the Samba Brazilian Grill, based on a recent glowing review in the Isthmus. It was an expensive night out ($120 for two of us with a couple of drinks, dessert, and tip), but (in contrast to most of the time when I eat an […]
