It's been a while since we had a quiz, so let's go!

Take the quiz: "Which American City Are You?"

San Francisco -- Liberal and proud, you'll live your lifestyle however you choose in the face of all that would supress you.

Interesting. And there's more: (more...)

So I'm finally getting around to blogging about the series finale of "Angel" that aired on the 19th. (Wow, only a week ago? Guess I'm not as behind as I thought.) We've already heard a few words about it from Tina and Anon -- "What the hell was UP with that ending?!" and, "I loved the ending of Angel. Angel has always been about the shades of grey areas between good and evil. The point was that the battle against evil never ends, something they were saying in the episodes near the end of the series," respectively -- so I suppose I'll attempt to address some of their points and go from there... and I guess I'll start with Anon, since Tina's comment refers to the end, which I guess I'll talk about at the end. 🙂 (more...)

It's been a while since we've had a nice lengthy commentary of sorts, but today's update brings us a rousing examination of some recent advertising trends and examples in an article entitled Stupid Internet Ads! You won't believe who McDonald's got to plug their artery-clogging crap this time around, but as Kurt Angle would say, "It's true, it's true." (more...)

Eventful day yesterday... I'd tell you about it, but I ran up enough photos to turn the day's events into a Scary-Crayon piece, so hopefully I'll have that written up in time for next week. But after that I had an interview of sorts at one of the U.S. PIRG offices, which went well enough, but unfortunately the hours of that office don't mesh too well with the public transportation schedule (hours are like 2PM-10PM; around here, buses stop running around 7PM). The guy who ran the office seemed to like me, though -- really nice guy; fellow Yale grad, too -- so he gave me the number of another office in D.C. with more viable hours. That could work, but I've got an interview for a part-time job at Books A Million on Wed, so I think I'll see how that goes fist. These last few days have been pretty exhausting, so I'll use tomorrow for downtime and to work on the next SC article (which I'll hopefully get up sometime later today; if not then, I'll shoot for Wednesday). It should be a fun one, so stay tuned...

And I've still got two slots left for the FIVE QUESTIONS GAME -- so far, Brent and De are confirmed players, and I think Sam's in too. So if you wanna play, leave a comment! Once I've got all of the players, I'll write up the questions and send 'em out. 🙂

Still need to blog about Angel, too... but not tonight. Ja for now!

Angel's still on the list of future blog topics, but for tonight's post I've answered Estella's five questions! Some other questions have also been answered...so I think I'm all caught up now on that front. Alrighty, HERE WE GO! (more...)
