…but you’re bringing me down. Sorry, I was listening to LCD Soundsystem this morning, and the track “New York, I Love You” came on, and it seemed applicable. What I’m trying to say is that as of the 12th of next month, I will no longer reside in the town of my birth, Salt Lake…

Charity Yard Sale for MS
My family and “the Lucky 13s”:http://lucky13s.org are putting on a MASSIVE yard sale this Saturday here in SLC (technically in Murray, where the majority of my family live) to benefit those with MS, like my brother, Seth. When I say massive, I really mean it. I visited my mother on Sunday and they’d only just…
Aww… pretty
Me and the Bean at Sundance. Yeah, it’s blurry as hell, but she liked the photo, so yeah.
Chantanee
When I was recently in the Seattle area, I went to dinner with my buddy Tyler and his brother Kyle. We’d just finished watching an inane Michael Bay movie, and I had to get up the following morning before 5 A.M. to be ready for the car service to the airport, so I was thinking…
32 Degrees
I spent the weekend in lovely Seattle. I won’t divulge the details of what transpired there quite yet, but suffice it to say that I had a nice time, and, well, I’m trying to adjust back to the Utah weather: All hail air-conditioning… that’s all I can say.
Ignorance is not bliss; it is dangerous
““One adult in five [in the US] thinks the sun revolves around the Earth, an idea science abandoned by the 17th century.””:http://www.nytimes.com/2005/08/30/science/30profile.html?ex=1183780800&en=e3760aa7d1b5022a&ei=5070 U-S-A! U-S-A! Let’s blow some shit (or people) up!! WAHOO!! Seriously… I’m beginning to think the movie “Idiocracy”:http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0387808/ is more a cautionary tale, rather than a comedy. I’ll continue: Dr. Miller’s data reveal…
A Marketer’s Dream
GB: “Hey, Andrew…” My nephew, Andrew, age two: “Hiiiiiii-y, Greegk.” GB: “Andrew, where where you this weekend?” A: “Old Navy.” Cheeky grin Nathan, Andrew’s father: “Andrew, where do your grandparents live?” A: “Old Navy.” Giggles N: “And where is your daddy from?” A: “Old Navy.” N: “Okay… where does Old Navy come from?” A: Thinks…
Sweet Potato
I spent last night cooking with my mother at her home in Murray. She recently discovered that she is dangerously close to developing diabetes (or, as Wilford Brimley might say, dia-beet-us), just as her father did around the same age, and she’s been put on a new diet that severely restricts what she can eat.…
Yorkies, Aeros & Hob Nobs… OH MY!
I just got back from my “local grocer”:http://www.harmonsgrocery.com/ (the same one that shocked me last year by stocking “rambutan”:http://www.rambutan.com/ in their produce section), and boy, have they done it again. Okay, so it wasn’t quite as unexpected as seeing dark red spiky orbs of pure pleasure, but even still… I discovered the British foods section.…
Dear Subaru Outback XT
This is your driver, Greg. You know, the guy who likes to rev-up your turbo and who sorely needs to get you serviced. I know, I know, I should treat you better. You are a great car; pricey, yes, but a wonderful drive. I do have a request, my dear blue wagon: Please cool it…
