Take that, work
Migrating from Firefox to the fancy schmancy Google Chrome has once again freed up my access to Tumblr. Now I can get back to what my work wants me to be doing: blogging.
A quick summation of mostly unimportant goings-ons in my life:
99% of the snow is now gone in the Twin Cities (knock on wood)
I finish with my Paleo (no grains, no dairy, no fun) diet after six weeks
It’s March Madness...

FoD Exclusive of the Day: A hot Filipina girl with big naturals lost her tramp stamp? No disrespect, but the Ed Hardy Boyz (Nick Kroll and Jon Daly) are on the case, bro.

Ed Hardy Boyz = automatic reblog. Also, I want a baby dragon that does motocross.
Going Paleo
One of the things I truly love in life is food. Cooking helps me to relax, and trying new recipes and experiencing new cuisine is a growing passion of mine. Why, then, did I just decide to embark on eating paleo (often referred to as the Caveman Diet)?
Well, I’m not sure. I’ve always enjoyed a good challenge, and this is certainly it (a cash incentive that goes to the person at my gym...
Unnamed soup
My girlfriend, Mallory, and her parents arrived to a single-digit Minneapolis on Friday night. Having trucked across one of the most boring stretched of the country for 13 straight hours, I wanted to welcome them with something warm and hearty.
Working a full day, plus only being half moved in to our new place, however, made this a more difficult task than I anticipated. A super easy soup recipe...
Damn you, Websense
So, my work apparently became wise to the fact that there’s an awful lot of porn on Tumblr, and has successfully had it blocked from web access.
This has had disastrous effects on my blogging abilities. Especially since it perfectly coincided with me moving in to a new apartment that is not yet internet-ready. And to top it off, all of my new neighbors block their wifi connections. So much...

It’s on.
Two days before my birthday?! It’s another good sign. We need a team meeting ASAP. Whose bar napkins will we be using to devise our plan?
I’m very happy to see that Red Bull will be bringing the Flugtag to the Mighty Mighty a.k.a. Minnesota. I will definitely be in attendance and,...

This Is Cute, You Should Watch It of the Day: If there is one thing that will never not be funny, it’s little kids reeancting scenes from adult TV shows. And to help me drive this fact home, here are a bunch of kids reeancting scenes from Jersey Shore.
Here’s another fact: MTV needs to replace The Situation with the kid playing The Situation in this video.

This Is Funny, You Should Watch It of the Day: Wu-Tang Clan leader RZA auditions for the part of Leslie Knope on NBC’s Parks And Recreation, and, naturally, brings da muthafuckin’ ruckus.

I wish I wouldn’t have fallen asleep during Julie & Julia now…apparently RZA from Wu Tang played both characters.

Holiday eating
It was/is the holidays, which means the annual winter visit from my brother, who dwells in the City of Brotherly Love. This, coincidentally, coincides with our family of four hitting the town, and generally eating in style.
Our first stop was the (relatively) freshly minted D’Amico Kitchen at the swank Chambers Hotel. The look of the new space is more welcoming than the old one, with warm,...

Christmas reading
I already had a little bit of a literary log-jam, thanks to the McSweeney’s book sale, but then Christmas really flooded the coffers, and now I have a dilemma on my hands. I had just starting reading Vacation, by Deb Olin Unferth, after finishing Bowl of Cherries, which was odd and satisfying. But now, I picked up four more books, and I think Vacation is going to get bumped. In fact, I...

Ron Artest’s open letter to Tiger Woods.
This is amazing. If you don’t know who Ron Artest is, you that Google thing and look him up.
As if I didn’t already love Ron Artest enough.
I hope that I can get to a point in my life where Ron Artest needs to pen me a letter. Also, so happy to know that Ron’s wife was also his first.

This Is Funny, You Should Watch It of the Day: Hey, MTV! Here’s an idea: How’s about you cancel the Darwin Awards pre-show you call Jersey Shore and replace it with an hour of Nick Kroll doing his Bobby Bottleservice character? For one thing, it’s pretty much what you’re going for, except without all that messy evil of paying real people to make fools of themselves under the guise...
