For some reason, people don’t think of economics as one of the “cool” subjects like Archeology (thanks Indiana Jones) or Law or Philosophy (ok, maybe all academic subjects are kinda dorky). It always seemed odd to me - I mean - Economics is really the study of Money - which - as we all know, [...]

I had the recent pleasure of meeting Jack Black by chance while shopping at Bergdorf Goodman. He was really nice and let me take a picture with him. He even shook my hand, which is more than I can say about Donald Trump when he was my boss for a year This video is exactly [...]

1. ALBUM Day & Age The Killers
This is another excellent entry in the evolution of The Killers’ canon. Of course nothing is as catchy or anthemic as “Mr. Brightside,” but this CD has deeper roots than the pure electronic rock that dominated the previous two albums. Just listen to the opening aboriginal chant of “This [...]

So the economy kind of went to shit, huh? I guess we’ve been hearing about this for a while - but man - I did not expect anything like last week. Times are bad, and unfortunately, this whole thing is really complicated, which means politicians get to spin the hell out of it.

So after reading the post directly below, I had this sweet idea to do a Top Ten List for Mario Brothers games. I just had two criteria.
First, my list had to make some damn sense.

Google Chrome ladies and gentlemen is the new internet browser that will outdo them all (or so they want us to believe). It’s being touted by the guys over at google as a revelation. They took a note from [...]

About a month ago, I saw this video of Bush and the Prime Minister of the Philippines. For some reason, our ever-tactful President decided that the best way to compliment an entire nation and its leader was to mention how much he loves Philippino cooking. It’s pretty terrible:
The first time I saw the video, I [...]

The other night CB and I began drawing on his couch. CB has this idea that he’s going to get everyone to draw and sign it. I think he’s onto something here. So if you’re in the lower east side, and think you’ve got a little artistry in you. There is a home for you [...]

It was the last days of the Apprentice 3. I had met the Donald enough times that I had declined to ride in a limo with him. Which seems silly in retrospect. Either way I knew I didn’t want to do another year of reality shows (even though they are pretty bizarre sometimes).
In the end [...]

Okay you are on vacation in a friend’s house on a secluded stretch of strategically important coastline. All of sudden you see a boat load of terrorists land in a small motor boat. You try to call the department of home land security, but the terrorist jerks are jamming all celly signals. [...]
