I used to think America was the pinnacle of entertainment. I mean, after all, America is the land that invented all of Hollywood, most of rock n’ roll and some of video games…Yeah, I used to think we Americans reigned supreme in giving the world useless ways to spend a person’s time.
Then I discovered global [...]

It’s been a long while since I’ve talked with my fifteen year old self. Yes, this is how I spend an afternoon. Enjoy!

Poet15ic [2:27 PM]: hi

There is a legend in Texas that I want to tell you about. It’s a legend about a ghost car…but not just any ghost car. There’s no “dead brother-in-law” at the wheel, no car that drives its self, no car that can kill your bullying enemies and then magically reassemble its self when no one’s [...]

Why is it that life throws you a curveball when you least expect it? I mean, honestly, is it too much to ask for a simple man like me to be granted the mere satisfaction of a nice Saturday afternoon excursion into the heart of yesteryear?

A can of lentil soup
An angry (and somewhat ugly) olive-skinned man
Three Burger King collectable cups
A tree
A copy of “Indigo Delta” starring the porn star Serenity
Two Partridge Family albums
and
A surprisingly vulgar “STOP” sign…
Scott C’s normal Friday “pulp” column will not be seen this week. We apologize for the inconvenience but he’ll [...]

Once every two years the world tries to put aside its regular biases and iron out their conflicts on the field of sport – its time for that now bi-annual event we call “The Olympic Games”!
First founded by half-naked and fully-naked sweaty men in Greece, the Olympics have become a strange mix of commercialism, impressive [...]

Every now and then, I like to clean out my mind of the “small potatoes” (the little things that for whatever reason don’t pan out into a full-length column) that I tend to come up with during the days. This is one of those times…

For many people, life moves in a linear fashion: First you get born, then you get an education, then you get a degree, then you get a job, then you get married, then you get a family, then you get an RV, then you get old, then you get a funeral.
That’s a lot of things [...]

In a way, every state is unique. Florida and Hawaii are tropical paradises, Nevada has Las Vegas (and Reno), West Virginia is shaped like some sort of kitchen utensil and Montana has the most feminine state capital name, Helena.
New York, my home state, is no exception to being unique. In addition to being one of [...]

Right now across the country and all around you a new holiday is struggling to gain popular acceptance. It started out as joke; a webcomic’s idea to bridge the gap between the crush of December holidays and Valentine’s Day.
