One Awesome Year

One Awesome Year December 27th, 2009 @ 5:28 am PST

When I was a kid I thought that no year would ever be able to beat 1983 for movies. In addition to Return of the Jedi, Vacation, and WarGames — three of my all-time favorites — that year also saw the release of Scarface, The Right Stuff, Risky Business, Octopussy, Monty Python’s The Meaning of […]

You’ve got just about a week to enter The 2010 Lee Atwater Invitational Celebrity Dead Pool! Until recently I’d never heard of — or even imagined the possibility of — Sweden’s bizarre tradition of watching Donald Duck cartoons on Christmas Eve. “RENT is so awful that you want to punch every single person that was […]

Fixing Radio Advertising

Fixing Radio Advertising December 18th, 2009 @ 7:31 am PST

With the exception of NPR, I no longer listen to the radio. It might be more accurate to say that there simply is no more FM radio, because here in Los Angeles — where it seems every station claims to have 20, 30, 40, or 50-minute “rock blocks” — I invariably hear nothing but 8, […]

Google Hates Me

Google Hates Me December 15th, 2009 @ 7:32 am PST

For some mysterious reason the Google PageRank™ of this website dropped to zero about a year and a half ago. I really have no idea why. It didn’t coincide with any major design changes and I didn’t do anything black hat here (or even white hat) that would have caused that. Every few months I […]
