Today is the annual March for Immigration Rights here in Chicago. The attendees are calling for reform to legalize the “undocumented immigrants” — read: ILLEGAL ALIENS — here in the U.S. In an article in a local news station’s Web site, there’s an informal survey as to whether or not the reader […]

Jonathan Roy, Patrick’s son. Guess he takes after his dad, eh? Read the Yahoo! article here: Ex-NHL player, Quebec coach Patrick Roy and son suspended for brawl during game. You won’t catch me doing that. I don’t think.

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone (Two-Disc Special Edition) (Harry Potter 1)

Haven’t seen this in what seems like a million years. There was a lot in the movie I couldn’t remember, but I don’t think it was just because of the ECT. It’s one of my favorite movies, so I’m not even going […]

Big win for da Bears! I wonder what they’ll have them do this year? I was 16 when “The Super Bowl Shuffle” came out and yeah, I actually owned this record. Not CD–those didn’t exist back then, kids. The record. This song was on the radio fucking constantly. You […]

Past lovers are listed, the situation(s) described, and maybe a note written to the person telling them what they think of said person now.

I just had to do one for Brian, too, and clearly he looks nothing like any of these guys. Not only that, Brian is way, way hotter! They should be glad they look like him!

Thanks to this post by Leslie’s Omnibus, I just had to go and check this out for myself. I suppose I could look like a lot worse people than Beyonce. Why couldn’t we have more than just a 68% resemblance? :d
The funny thing is, people sometimes ask me if I have any […]



Trick or Treat

I wasn’t allowed to go trick or treating until I was eight years old. Before that, we lived in the city and my parents were absolutely convinced that I would end up with poisoned candy or an apple with a razor blade inside it. Talk about excessively overprotective. By the time I […]

i would have posted a cat blog today, except that Brian forgot to upload the photos that are in his camera. and as i’ve already bitched about before, our regular fucking digital camera is broken.
