March 25, 2009: The Flickcast.
Who doesn't love a good, old-fashioned, "speak your mind", kind of podcast? I know I sure do! I've teamed up with fellow movie buffs Chris Ullrich and Christina Warren to produce a weekly podcast in which we cheer, jeer, and bitch about movies, tv, comics, and all things "geek". The first episode is planned to be out on April Fool's day, next week, and it'll be sure to knock your socks off!
February 8, 2009: Sing. Sing a Song.
Given our hard economic times, people need to go out on limbs for work, and since I'm always free to try new things, I've started a DJ'ing company. I mostly do nights for bars, and run events like karaoke, but it ends up being lots of fun--for me, and for everybody else. I plan to have an addition to the site up for the DJ'ing stuff soon, so keep checking!
October 5, 2008: 23 Hours, 56 Minutes
So after about 3 days of sitting in the glass box, I managed to get eliminated from the Netflix competition. I made it 23 hours, 56 minutes (JUST SHY OF A DAY). It was rough, not being able to look away from the screen, but I really did have an amazing time, and I thank everyone who showed me their support, both in person, and by writing me. You can check out my full account of the experience here, and you can even see what I look like after being awake for almost 24 hours here:

August 29, 2005 "I am a MySpace Whore"
God, I can't believe it's finally happened. You know, I used to loathe those people out there (mostly girls 13-16) who would practically live on the internet. I don't mean being on it every day and seeing how the world works from the perspective of a 15'' moniter, because who doesnt' do that these days? I mean those people who preach their beliefs, goals, dreams, and every other little thought that popped into their heads on such abominations as Live Journal or Friendster. But recently, the concept of MySpace came to me as an act of boredome. I was bored one day, and figured I'd get my site a few more daily hits if I threw up my name and a few wacky traits about myself. What harm could that do, right? Yea, Right! I signed up Exactly one week today and I have checked my site at least 300 times since then. I've spiced it up with all kinds of accouterments and goodies, but not so many as to be tasteless. I have even sucked 44 friends into my little web of lifelessness. Granted, a portion of those folk are people like Dave Attell, Stephen Lynch, Dane Cooke, and Sheri Moon Zombie. Either way, I am trying to get as many people as possible to join my little brigade, because when I plan to take over the world, I will need all the MySpace friends I can get...muahaha

August 1, 2005: "Revamp, Baby!"
Boy, oh Boy....did this place need a once-over, or what? I looked at the site about a month ago and just started to cringe...Sure it was good while it lasted, but it needed a fresh start. I needed a fresh start. So I pulled out my back of tricks and gave the site a total Joan Rivers-style facelift. As you can see, I taught myself the art of the "rollover" and got rid of those horrible frames. As you can see along with the new look, there are a few new treats as well as the old ones. I even got a few folks to lend a hand. This site is on it's way up the ladder, and I think this is the very first step.
Check out some of the great new things we have here such as:
