My buddy Michael from QSaltLake sent me this. It sort of takes me back to the heydays of Cherry Poppins in Las Vegas. There was an awesome reveal in today’s chapter (5, I think) of X-Men: Messiah Complex. I’m really loving X:MC so far. Since the House of M reset, the X stories have been decent [...]

I hate these things… Sam is hosting a dinner party for five guests, Anna, Bob, Chris, Dana, and Evan. He has prepared four dishes, Chicken, Ham, Steak, and Salmon. Each guest will have two exactly two different dishes based on the following constraints. No guest can eat the same two dishes as another guest. If [...]

So on my practice LSAT exams, I consistently seem to have the most trouble with logic games. I rock the reading comprehension and the arguments portion isn’t terrible. Anyway, I’ve spent a significant amount of time this week on a workbook full of logic games and I seem to improving, although my head is swimming [...]

There’s a cosmic rule that says that if you run a blog in the United States you must post about “something you’re thankful for” on this holiday. Apparently, if you don’t celebrate this Thanksgiving holiday, you are un-American and might as well support troops of Nazis on dinosaurs destroying our country in a rain of [...]

So it seems that Mitt “I support gay rights” Romney and Rudy “How do I look in drag?” Guiliani are both campaigning on their recodes of beating up their supposedly liberal communities where they governed. The New York Times set out to determine whether New York is actually as liberal as the Republican front-runner suggests. [...]

One of the fun and unique things about my office are the Boggle tournaments. We play for keeps (especially Cady) in real-time games and on the Bogglific application for Facebook. Yesterday I took a sick day to sleep off the feelings of a coming flu. It didn’t stop me from winning yesterday’s round. Today, however, [...]

There’s a very important holiday coming up this week: Black Friday. So, in the spirit of recognizing the reason for the season (shopping and presents), I’m trying to put together a list of gifts I’d love to get this year.

After spending the day with Jennifer–mostly helping her clean out her closet and de-clutter her apartment–we decided to go see a movie. After watching a trailer for Lars and the Real Girl, we thought a hilarious comedy was just what we needed. While the movie was great, it was not a hilarious comedy. It was [...]

I’m glad the week is over. It’s been all about budgets and metrics and strategic plans at work lately and, therefore, boring. On the plus side, some good entertainment for distraction. Mostly minor spoilers for Beowulf, Titus, Wicked and Mistral’s Kiss beneath the cut…

I have a confession to make. It’s somewhat shameful. Let me set the stage… The year was 2005, the month November. It was strange time, quite unlike today. The nation seemed lost in a quagmire of a war with no end in sight. Books and movies about a young wizard dominated much of the pop [...]
