20 Lame Things I Thought Were Ruining My Childhood
These aren’t things that actually ruined my childhood. I had a great childhood. But at the time, I couldn’t imagine life getting worse than living with this stuff.
Einstein’s Folly
I’ve made an observation of the world that I’d like to call “Einstein’s Folly”. Albert Einstein was arguably the smartest living man in the last 100 years. I don’t by any means question his genius. But I’ve noticed that he is falsely attributed with a number of quotable words that he never actually said. For […]
Top Ten Saturday Night Live Characters That Were Only Funny Once
At first glance, this list is a slam on all of these characters, but it’s really a celebration. I loved all of them. The problem was that none of them had enough substance to really carry a return appearance. Every time they came back on it was just the same old jokes again. Maybe we […]

I had two people ask me the same question in one day. They both wanted to know what was the best way to set up a blog. I’m sure there are other people who’d like to know the same information so I thought I’d set up a resource for everyone. I use 4 different options […]
The Proper Use of Christian Profanity
I like Derek Webb. He not only understands music and verse he understands his job as a Christian artist. I’m not at all a musician but I’m inspired as an artist when I listen to his albums. His latest album is surrounded by a bit of controversy. His record label refused to include one of […]
Peter Pascarelli – Fan Art
In honor of Peter “Mr. Sarcasm” Pascarelli I created these cartoons. Peter is the cohost of ESPN’s Baseball Today podcast. There haven’t been any publicly available pictures of him until this week when he provided color commentary on an ESPN broadcast. Peter is best known for his trademark “I don’t like anybody” catch phrase. It […]
Angels Stadium Panoramic
I took this panoramic image of Angels Stadium on May 29, 2009. The Angels were playing the Seattle Mariners. My final image is 13 feet wide and 5 feet tall. I’d hate to actually see the photo at that size because I’m sure it would show all kinds of mistakes. It’s a combination of 35 […]
Unquestioned Lies
In a recent episode of “This American Life” the theme was “No Map”. It featured stories of people encountering difficult situations without any guideposts on how to navigate through them. You can listen to the entire episode here. The final story was about Mike Nyberg, a Mormon that encountered corruption in international adoption, a complex […]
