04.02.08What did Genies ever do to you?
Just wondering: When did Genies become synonymous with poop? See Diaper Genie and/or Cat Genie. I’m pretty sure they are capable of granting wishes other than those that deal with waste management.

03.31.08Are TV Shows on DVD Exposing the Holes of TV?
So we all went through this writer’s strike. Writers want more money, yadda-yadda-yadda. I get it, I support it. But while talking with Justin the other day, who only watches shows on DVD - he pointed out a lot of flaws in one of my on again-off again love affair TV Shows - Lost.
Personally, I love the show - even through all the twists and turns, and one would think that given a week (or longer) between episodes, you would pay attention to deficiencies within the show. Apparently, I get so wrapped up in the “bigger questions” from week to week, that the little ones squeak by without even an eyebrow raised. Stupid me? I guess I take partial blame for that one. But now, I’m beginning to notice it on TV Shows I watch on DVD. Currently, Weeds and Dexter. See some things I might’ve let slide if I’d been watching week after week and not day after day.
Now the big question is, am I a lazy watcher, or are there lazy writers, OR is TV on DVD a bad thing? Thoughts?

03.30.08I don’t want to be a pain in the ass…
But I can’t find my second volume of Just Say Yo. Sandy, I’m pretty sure I lent it to you in 1993, could you poke around your basement, tell me what you come up with? Appreciated.

03.05.08What Age is it Appropriate…
…to buy a nose hair trimmer? I really think I need one. However, Sheila hasn’t said anything, and it’s her job to keep me appraised of the situation, right? I mean, no one in Schad has said anything either, but the kids at the Mac party were a little skittish around me (that could be explained by my running around with a camera taking pictures unsuspectingly - but that’s another post entirely…). Looking in the mirror this morning, I saw one of these guys just poking out, right out from underneath the end of my nose. Peeking. Teasing. I ALMOST grabbed a pair of scissors to cut it, but the thought of me with a huge cut on my nose is making me live with it. Now, I’m all fascinated with it - and NEED to get rid of it. So. Who thinks it’s ok for me to buy one, and which one do you recommend?

03.05.08Is it Art if it isn’t Comfortable?
I don’t get the whole “furniture is art” bullshit. Sheila and I went couch shopping a few years back. Sheila had a couple of requirements, I had a couple of requirements. Her’s centered on the “it should fit the Mission-style decor of the Bungalow”. Mine, stereotypically centered on “it should be comfortable enough for me to fall asleep on while you are watching ‘The Notebook’”. Fortunately, we both won! Yay us! But you know somoene out there, either an emo kid who just graduated from college with daddy’s graduation check, or, the emo kid who graduated from college 25 years ago, has built a mega-corporation, and wants to be the kid he was back then - is buying this thing. And all I ask is, are you SURE?
