The Russian Giant
HBO sent me an e-mail this afternoon promoting their upcoming programs. One thing stood out to me. It’s a boxing match. Nikolai “The Russian Giant” Valuev is fighting Monte “Two Gunz” Barrett Saturday October 7th on HBO HD. “Who in the hell is the Russian Giant?” is something you may be wondering. Well, click on this. That’s who the Russian...September 26, 2006
Things I've recently rediscovered
Poptarts - Oh man! I love Poptarts. I went to the grocery store recently when I was really hungry and bought a pack of them on an impulse buy. I forgot how much I used to like them. My favorite: Chocolate Fudge (untoasted) International Delight Cream for Coffee - If you’re an international man of leisure like me, why...September 25, 2006
Fred Willard on Ebert and Roeper
I’m having a hard time getting to sleep tonight, so I watched the Ebert and Roeper that had dvr’ed earlier tonight. Since Roger Ebert has been away from the show with health problems, they’ve had guest reviewers filling his seat. Tonight’s guest was Fred Willard, best known for his roles in the Christopher Guest mockumentaries. The guy was hilarious. If...September 24, 2006
Happy Anniversary
Happy Anniversary to my good friends, Bryan and Judy Buchs! To think, it was only a year ago that you allowed me to get really liquored up and deliver the longest Best Man speech in the history of weddings. Cheers to many more years. You two are the best!...September 24, 2006 12:56 PM | 0 Comments

Two Saturdays in Madison: Part One
I spent the past two Saturdays in Madison for Wisconsin Badgers Football. These are pictures from the first weekend. I was joined by my college roommates Les, Jim and Jason. Madison students want us to help them drink their beer. The students won’t take “no” for an answer. Jim agrees to help them out. The ladies like Jason. Jim likes...September 20, 2006

Labor Day Weekend Movies - Crank & The Wicker Man
I caught a couple of flicks over the weekend. Crank - Jason Statham is actually really good/funny in what amounts to an updated version of DOA. It has a crazy fast pace and twisted sense of humor, not to mention quite a few “What the f**k?!! I can’t believe that was in this movie” moments. If you miss the...September 1, 2006
Ricky Gervais' Extras
If you go to the Ricky Gervais video podcasts on iTunes, you’ll be able to watch two new trailers for the second season of his TV series Extras. It looks like they’re airing on BBC soon. We’ll probably see it on HBO sometime next year. I love Gervais. Extras started off weak but finished strong in the first season....Mothly Archives
