Tour de Emory

itunes_emorywalking

Self-guided audio walking tours are the lamest things in the world. I have experienced them at the Forbidden City in Beijing, Alcatraz Prison in San Francisco, a Picasso exhibit in Atlanta, and probably a few others that I’m forgetting.

However, I never was fortunate enough to experience Emory University’s self-guided audio walking tour. I [...]

The Streets of Baltimore

pothole1

No talk of The Wire here. Or the fact that the Orioles couldn’t beat my intramural college softball team. Instead, I touch on a top ESPN.com story:

BALTIMORE — The Indy Racing League has the green light to launch a new event in Baltimore.

City officials approved a contract Wednesday with local investors [...]

A Coke and a Smile…and a Cheat Sheet

500x_cokecheat

This is one of those ‘duh’ kind of moments. Why didn’t I think of this? I could’ve made a fortune selling these in college. Maybe I still can:

Though, I know plenty of friends in law school, business school, and 8th grade. Perhaps you guys can still take advantage of this guy’s genius. [...]

Run Forrest, Run

The 2010 running of the Boston Marathon took place yesterday. And I’m proud to say that a couple of regular Great Wahl celebrities ran really well. They aren’t Ethiopian or Kenyan, so they didn’t win. But Tony and Julia definitely held their own:

As a frame of reference, Cheruiyot is the overall male [...]

Men’s Basketball Championship Prediction

Jesse wins The Great Wahl mug for the bracket challenge. A big congrats on that. Quite a life accomplishment to win a free 12 person bracket pool. Good thing he just started drinking coffee last month.

Headed over to Skor’s for the Butler-Duke game. Haven’t seen a collection of this many white basketball [...]

Flippin’ Canadians

It’s been a long time since I’ve made a post. And for that, I apologize. Though, I was with probably 50% of my readership at a bachelor party this weekend in New Orleans, so much probably wasn’t missed. And I’ve been in the process of moving to Minneapolis over the last couple of days [...]

Worth a Thousand Words

I don’t know the story behind this picture. I don’t really care. The guy is watching Glenn Beck while surrounded by a huge cache of guns all while draped in an American Flag, so it perpetuates all the stereotypes I’m looking for. That’s good enough to make it on this blog.

Or maybe he’s [...]

Terminating Emory

arnold_emory

So, California is bankrupt, isn’t it? But I’ve seen The Governator all over the place recently. He was at the NBA All-Star weekend, he might have been at the Olympics in Vancouver, and now he’ll be at the coolest place on earth: Emory University.

Here is the BREAKING NEWS I just received:

When [...]

Emory University Will Kill You in Your Sleep

Emory University, my alma malter, has quite an expansive medical center. It has one of the best hospitals in the Southeast, plays host to the CDC, and we, apparently, have a sleep center. I know that we have a sleep center now because a 25-year old kid just died there while taking part in [...]

The Official Super Bowl Preview

wahl_peyton

It’s been a while since I’ve posted my full weekly NFL preview column on here. But it’s the Super Bowl, so I figure I might as well go out of the football season with one last big push. I have some recap stuff to get to once the season is completely over, and I [...]
