So I was wondering aloud the other day as to why there were so many Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurants in Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City). No Burger Kings, no McDonalds, but KFC everywhere you look. Then my friend Sean pointed out that it’s probably because Colonel Sanders and Ho Chi Minh are the same person. Apparently this is not the first time this observation has been made. Judge for...

I am sitting in a Pink Floyd-themed bar different from the one you are in now. I am recording the sound of the Tina Turner concert DVD and I am going to play it back into the bar again and again until the resonant frequencies of Tina reinforce themselves so that any semblance of her speech, with perhaps the exception of rhythm, is destroyed. What the others will hear, then, are the natural...

Trapped in Bangkok shopping mall, stop. All potential clothing purchases ironic, stop. Def Leppard belt buckle? stop. No seriously, stop it.

So I was over at Noisebridge last night, trying to finish putting together a gadget. I needed a drill, so I made my over to the woodshop area. When I got there, I saw a couple of people putting varnish on a large wooden box. That isn’t a… “Yes,” they said, “it’s a coffin. For people to have sex in, while they are buried alive.” (italics mine)

I was going to start a blog just about this but it turns out that I’m too lazy.
Long story short, I’m in San Francisco for a month. It is rad. I have a hot pink road bike that goes pretty fast. People around here are really friendly. But they are also kinda ugly. Yesterday I went for a run in Golden Gate Park. It was just like that scene in The Room.
Along the way I have...

Tomorrow I go on vacation AND become homeless. Contemplating using the Twitter to keep in touch. Contemplating being homeless. Hmmmmm.

Me: Don't you hate that feeling when you take a nap, but then you sleep for way too long, and then when you wake up you feel gross and can't force yourself to do anything?
Roommate: What? Maybe you haven't noticed, but typically I wake up before you do, do all my errands, work until 10 o'clock at night and then go see my boyfriend. I have no idea what you're talking about.

Me: Well then, I'm gonna go rest my eyes for a bit. See ya!

Today on the track, I ran past a couple of people who looked to be in their mid-to-late 30s and pretty fit, and as I’m weaving between them and another group of people who were walking, I hear the guy say in his thick Brooklyn accent, “Jesus, that’s the third time that guy’s passed us!”
I’m not about bragging to strangers on the internet, but whatever, that was...

The term “Blog Birthday” makes me shudder a little bit, much in the same way as when my grandma mentions my “Jesus Birthday” pretty much every time I talk to her.

“This isn’t the first time Topeka has switched its name to mark a cultural trend. In 1998, former mayor Joan Wagnon temporarily changed the name of the city to “ToPikachu, Kansas,” in reference to the Pikachu anime character, from the show and game called “Pokemon,” which was popular at the time, according to the Topeka Capital-Journal.”

VCR For Sale, Maybe It Works
So last night we had our “office party” at the office. The White Elephant is an important tradition at this party, so I did my part and contributed a somewhat lame gift that isn’t worth discussing. What I received in turn was a dusty, beaten up, and perhaps broken VCR with a copy of Citizen Kane stuck in it. Which is great because I don’t even have a TV, let alone any...
