As a kid I was obsessed with twins. From the moment I saw Hayley Mills in The Parent Trap I knew I was destined to be a multiple. I didn’t realize at the time that it wasn’t necessarily a life choice I was able to make. After all, Mom said I could be anything I [...]

My Ode to All Things Wiki, set to the music of Jimmy Buffet’s classic “Margaritaville.”
Nibblin’ on rice cakes
Watchin’ the snow flakes
Cover the world outside my new home.
At the old desktop, yahoo’ed my mail out,
Googled myself and
wrote a new poem
Wastin’ away again on Wikipedia
Searchin’ for all topics large and small
Some people claim that it’s porno to [...]

Let’s face it. Banks want you to work for your money. We face the indignity of being herded into line by a cheap velvet rope. As if on a busy Friday afternoon, among other weary downtowners trying to cash their paychecks during their too-short lunch hour, we’ll suddenly enter the red velvet maze and feel [...]

The other day my brother and I were having a discussion about the guy who does the voiceovers for the VISA commericals. We agreed that he sounds incredibly condescending and this most likely carries over into his personal life. Can you imagine the pickup lines this guy uses? He probably picks the hottest woman in [...]

I love my new place. I really do. For the first time in my life, I can girly up my home to my own satisfaction. I have a bright, cheerful yellow living room with prints of Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn and Madonna adorning the walls. I can proudly display my Legally Blonde and Clueless DVDs. I have [...]

I was desperate.
I needed music. I craved it. To be specific, I had to hear Garbage’s Version 2.0 album. As I’m living with my parents temporarily until my apartment is ready for move in, and my own CD collection/mp3 player were safely boxed away, I had little selection. My morning was timed out down to the second, and [...]

For the uninformed masses, John Mayer is a singer-songwriter best known for his singles like “No Such Thing (As the Real World)” and “Waiting on the World to Change.”
John desperately wants to eschew his pop artist image, often telling his audience to ”ditch your pop sensibilities” as he attempts to do his best Clapton on stage. John [...]

In honor of John Wayne’s 101st birthday, I thought I’d take a moment to broach the topic of cowboys. I’m not all that fond of cowboys. This is not meant in any way to disrespect true cowboys; rather, it seems the type of person who likes to don cowboy hats and boots are, in my [...]
