At least once a week – and for whatever reason, it’s happening more frequently these days – someone will ask me, “Why Georgetown?”
As in, “What is it about that place that keeps you there?”
As if to say that greener pastures exist for me somewhere down the road, on the other side of the fence, where [...]

I adore this video
Weezer has always made interesting videos, from the Happy Days moments in “Buddy Holly” to the fantastic (and Best. Video. Ever.) moments of the Muppets gang taking part in “Keep Fishin.’”

Us, you, me, them, us
this is for you.
if you think it’s for you, it probably isn’t.
if you never read it, it probably is.
confusing?
maybe.
but no one said it was easy.

Election 2008: Who the hell knows?

Not just an ordinary dull-ache-behind-the-eyes headache, mind you, but a my-brain-is-actually-cramping style of headache that usually only comes after watching Lost.

Jonesing for more Indy
I watched movies at two extremes of the emotion scale Sunday, both of them being fantastic, but with each of them leaving me in different mental states.
First, I watched The Savages, and while it gets labeled by many critics as a dark comedy, I’m not sure I’d quickly call it as such. Sure, it has [...]

So long Scrubs, for now
I love Scrubs.
Actually, I loved Scrubs, as the last two seasons have been pretty below average.

Logo update
The Goo Goo Dolls show at Fourth Street Live! proved to be a treasure trove of MLB logos, as I spotted almost half of the league’s 30 teams over the course of a few hours.
I have not, however, seen any new teams since then, although to be fair, it’s not like people at my [...]
