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 just preparing [...]

Terminating 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 I graduated, we had [...]

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 an [...]

The Official Super Bowl Preview

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 will [...]

Exclusive Content from a Super Bowl Party

I don’t think I can technically say ‘Super Bowl’ in this post without Rodger Goodell coming in the middle of the night and murdering my first born, but I’ll risk it.
For the unfamiliar, my college buddy, Evan (who rides the coattails of his sister’s ‘Say Yes to the Dress’ fame), lives in Miami and claims [...]

One Hundred In One

Fifty days until the one year anniversary of My Fitness Project (March 21st).
Through the end of January, I have lost 84.5 pounds. To get to one hundred pounds in one year, I have to lose 15.5 pounds in the next month and half. That also happens to coincide perfectly with Caponiti’s Bachelor Party Debacle (March [...]

The Sweisen Special

In college, Sweisen kept a fairly large knife that I’m sure has a name, but I can’t remember it. It was a cross between a switchblade and a ninja’s nunchaku. He basically just used it to make the rest of us think he was going to chop off his finger accidentally and skin the dears [...]

U.A.E.: Unwinding an Era

When I was in college, I was interested in going overseas for a job. I was thinking perhaps in China somewhere, or maybe in Dubai, part of the booming United Arab Emirates. Things changed and I never got around too it, and I guess, thankfully so:
The emirate’s government asked creditors of Dubai World, one of [...]

College Football Picks: An Upsetting Weekend

Last week: 6-0 Straight, 5-1 vs. the spread
Total: 24-10 Straight, 22-11-1 vs. the spread
After my best week yet, missing perfection thanks only to Washington State, I am feeling a little bold or perhaps anxious to bring my numbers back down. So this week’s theme will be ranked teams that will lose.
West Virginia (7-2) @ #5 [...]

Capitalism is a B-tch

Competition is great. On whole, it’s what keeps our quality of life improving. Two of the greatest corporate competitors of this decade are, arguably, Google and Wal-Mart (or Wahl-Mart).
Some people think Wal-Mart is evil, but their business helped pay for large portion of my college education, so I have to be polite. Google’s creed is [...]
