  1. Young men, you don’t have to feel down… July 31, 2007

    I’m going to hell for posting this. In my defense: they’re going to hell for doing this in the first place. And you’re going to hell for laughing at it.

  2. Dance Off Photoshoot July 30, 2007

    I’m in the rather interesting position of being the only person in Seattle who’s gotten at least a hint as to what each of the different teams are doing, and let me tell you…this year’s Dance Off is going to be awesome.

    Many congratulations to my dad, who was ordained to the Sacred Order of Deacons at Holy Spirit Episcopal Church this last Wednesday evening!

  4. End of an Era: No more Weekly World News July 26, 2007

    American Media has decided to suspend publication of Weekly World News, both the print publication and the web site. No reason was given at press time, although reliable sources do tell us that management turned down at least one offer to buy the publication.

  5. Finite Incantatem July 22, 2007

    We’re done — Prairie finished her copy mere minutes before I finished mine. In brief — we approve. Highly.

  6. Silencio! July 20, 2007

    Due to time’s slow march around the globe, Muggles across the world are already diving into the final year of adventures at Hogwarts, and while Prairie and I will be receiving our copies tomorrow, due to a prior engagement we won’t actually be able to read them until Sunday.

  7. Dance Off 2007 is Coming! July 19, 2007

    This year’s Dance Off is coming soon — just two weeks away! This year it’ll be held at the Crocodile on August 2nd at 8pm, and it’d be a good idea to buy your tickets now, as last year’s show sold out.

  8. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix July 18, 2007

    As Prairie and I have spent a couple days thinking back on it, we’re both pretty satisfied with this latest entry, and what few issues we have with the film fall pretty solidly into the realm of nitpicking, rather than actual issues.

    Not exactly doing our part to keep the booze flowin’, are we?

  11. Club Blacklight’s Last Hurrah July 11, 2007

    A few shots from the Blacklight’s final weekend. Most are from Friday night, which featured a few performances by a local fetish group…and as such, range from mildly NSFW (near-nudity with pasties) to extremely NSFW (bondage, domination, and simulated lesbian strap-on sex).

  12. Heat Wave July 11, 2007

    75 degrees already, and it’s only 8:30 in the morning. An expected record-setting high of 96 degrees. Y’know, I thought I moved to Seattle…who snuck up on me and shipped me to southern California?

  13. Boy in the Pool July 9, 2007

    Prairie took a bunch of pictures of me dorking around in the pool with my snorkel equipment the other day. Since today’s heading up into the 80’s, we’re thinking heading back to the pool sounds like a really good idea….

  14. Live Free or Die Hard July 9, 2007

    In short: as far as summer blockbuster entertainment goes, Live Free or Die Hard was everything that Transformers should have been. Big, loud, funny, and — and this is a key point — believable in its implausibility.

  15. Transformers July 6, 2007

    Mini-review number one: It was glorious, incredible, over-the-top, in-your-face, enjoyably bad. Mini-review number two: Moments of ‘holy shit, that was cool,’ buried in a whole mess of, ‘what the fuck?’

  16. Fremont Solstice Parade and 10,000 photos! July 5, 2007

    This photo was my 10,000th photo uploaded to Flickr. Ten thousand photos (and more, now). Wow. Impressive and scary, all at the same time.

  17. Happy Fourth II (The Return?) July 4, 2007

    While I just put up random, semi-pointless babble, Prairie was typing away actually saying something that’s worth reading.

    Random updates: wheels (rollerskates and rollerblades), swimming pools, blog changes, and fourth of July wishes.

    Given that Ratatouille has just hit theaters, I feel compelled to revisit a question I asked just over a year ago: Is Pixar a ‘boys only’ club?
