\”The Business\”
From Jake, via The Big Lead: I consider this retroactive visual evidence for all the times in college people thought wadE and I were insane for referencing this incident. Plus, it still cracks me up.

7th Annual Austin Bar Crawl
Welcome to the 7th Annual Austin Bar Crawl! It seems that each year we get later and later in publishing, but that\’s because … ummm … ok, so I can\’t even think of a poor excuse this year. But as always, you get what you pay for. If you are unfamiliar with the ABC please…

Twins Notes
Here are two players\’ career stats (batting average, on base percentage, slugging percentage): Player A: .280/.329/.455 Player B: .256/.303/.446 Player A is long-time Wade A favorite Jacque Jones. Player B is Craig Monroe. The Twins just traded for him, which leads me to wonder why they\’d trade for a right handed Jacque Jones. Although I\’m…

Squirrel!
Ya know speaking of, it\’s about time for an annual viewing of Christmas Vacation, isn\’t it? But I digress: http://www.metro.co.uk/weird/article.html?in_article_id=65079&in_page_id=2 I\’m a big fan of how they captioned that photo. I\’m also a big fan of the related items links.

Pudding guy.

Yikes.
I don\’t really consider myself a programmer or a website designer. Sure, I know my way around HTML with some proficiency. I\’m capable of stealing and modifying code to suit my own purposes, and most of the time things go as planned. Still, I feel as though I take more of a scotch tape and…

Regarding Auto-Flush
Dear toilet that auto-flushes in the staff bathroom, I didn\’t realize it was possible to be quite so annoyed at an inanimate object as I am frequently, repeatedly, with you. This morning while conducting the final phase of my coffee conversion to liquid waste, you flushed no fewer than four distinct times. Hello?! I was…

Who Wants to be a President?
I\’ve been avoiding talking about the political landscape lately, even though I have plenty to say. Part of the problem is that I haven\’t had much time in general to devote to the site; that much should be obvious by my complete lack of content. Still, I couldn\’t stay quiet after reading the following article:…

\”It\’s up to you\”
I wouldn\’t have instantly thought to use the word \’groundbreaking\’ to describe the upcoming new release from Radiohead. For my tastes, they peaked somewhere in between Kid A and Amnesiac. Then again, I sounded the death knell on Pearl Jam a while back, and then their last album went ahead and was pretty decent, so…
