Has it come to this? [OMG! ESPN has jumped the shark]

The day ESPN starts reporting on Brett Favre’s text messaging is the day that I stop believing in modern journalism. Hmm, that didn’t take as long as I thought.

Golfing with lowered expectations

I posted my latest golfing escapade over at the People’s Golfer.  This outing was much less awful than my typical assault on golf fundamentals.

Fantasy soccer: Do-over!

My MLS soccer fantasy season got off to a rough start—through no fault of my own.
Now, usually when I say something like this, my problems are entirely my own fault, and I am using the catharsis of blame-mongering to ease the fact that I did a horrible job drafting my fantasy roster. But this [...]

Welcome back, Mariners baseball

With Opening Day of the 2008 baseball season just around the corner, many fans are celebrating the return of our national pastime. They miss the crack of the bat, the powerful home runs, and the riveting pitchers’ duels.

TGIF: More Mystery Science Theater

In this clip, the guys make fun of a Gumby short film. Classic.

Project Winner is literally no surprise

For some reason, Project Runway is on at 11:00pm here every week. So instead of watching it live, we end up taping the show and watching it the next day. For the majority of the season, this has been fine since no one seemed bent on spoiling the surprise for us.
But all that changed this [...]

Photoshop update: high-tech 2nd grade art

My Photoshop skills might be growing, but the artwork mess I’ve created begs to differ.
When I started the task of teaching myself Photoshop, I expected things to be difficult; I just didn’t expect that three weeks into it I would still struggle with finding orange on the color palette. My goal was [...]
