Also, real Merry Christmas.....


Ok, maybe not really real, but real enough for me....

For real with the X-mas decs?

OK...I'll admit. Having Christmas co-exist with a buddy in town from the army is equal parts kick ass and equal parts pain in the ass. Trips the boat, trips to the titty house, place your bets here and there....I ended up losing $80 I didn't have tonight because of friendship. But we had fun.

I did have a magnifimous moment where I thought the woman sitting next to me was actually into me. That moment quickly passed, as they all do, and I realized how small my dating pool was/is.

Anywho, so porn it is!!!!!!1111!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111one!!!!11!!!!!

Merry X-mas, you buggahs.


So, I didn't make it to the Improv get-together something point something.

Alright, alright, I was the one that put it into the air initially. But a few things have come to light since then. One major one is that MO unemployment takes much longer to kick in than one might think.

The good news is I spent the $50 that was given to me by my aunt tonight at the casinos. So it's going to the kids, which is nice.

I've also had a recent job extended to me to unpack and load furniture for a well known local furniture store while I wait on my "dream job". I quotate it, not because I doubt it's validity as a dream job, but as it's job's ability to take it seriously. Think on that one, Volataire. Really, I want to be a Union organizer. The field in which I enter is important to me.

That field won't be revealed hear right now, but more details will come soon.

Anywhoozle, talk to you all later. I'm busy calculating my my awesome points on a number of Massively Multi-Player Online Games.

Is he for real or for fake? Find out in the latest issue of US.

EXIT 16 ALUMNI SHOW!!!!!!


Exit 16's alumni show was tonight. It's an annual event that I look forward to, if not just to see the talent coming out of high school this year, but to also re-connect with friends from long past. 11 years ago, now.

For those not in the know. Exit 16 is a high school improv troupe that I was a founding member of back in the fall of 1997. Back then, our director was Rich Brown, an English/Theatre teacher Liberty High School at the time. He took advantage of an opportunity to partake in the "Kansas City High School Improv League". Having such a large roster, we had two teams: Improff Broadway and Exit 16. Because of the rules, since both of our teams made it to the finals, we had to join together. And so Exit 16 was born. We won the championship, Rich moved away 2 years later, and Trish Berrong took over as head coach of Exit 16.

I wish it could be a scam, that there could be some way to use these kids for my benefit, and I'm sure there is. But Trish is tied to them in a way that I, nor most of you could be: she actually enjoys driving 20 miles out of her way once a week to coach a ragtag group of hormonal, confused, generally non-commital teens to not only perform, but to excel at the art of Improv. She recieves no stipend, no money, no real acclamations, she does it because not only does she believe in the art more than anyone I've ever known, but she sees in those kids the ability to be anything and everything.

Anywhoozle, It's always fun to have an alumni show, to talk hentai with your buddies, and to see the hentai possibilities in your possible future buddies. I can see Exit 16 going on, not just putterning on, doing recycled crap year after year, but truly growing for years to come.

EXIT 16!!!!!!111!!!!!1!!!!!ONE!!!!!

This always gives me the heeby jeebies


Tiny foot, other body parts removed from tumor in newborn's brain.

I've read stories like this before, and it always reminds me of the Stephen King novel "The Dark Half". It was made into a crappy movie over a decade ago, but it's basically about a kid having the same surgery and growing up to be an author, whose bestselling books have an evil character that the author is killing off when....well, you'll have to read it or see the movie, because it's seriously been more than a decade since I've done either myself.

In other news, pixie haircuts are back. File that under "who cares?".

Jesus Christ, what a great comic.


Jesus Christ: In the Name of the Gun
follows the violent adventures of Jesus and a few special historical guests. Need I say more? Make it to at least page 15, and you will be hooked.

It's strictly online now, but will soon be available for purchase at your local nerdatorium! Check it out, let me know what you think.

More ambiguity on the job front.

So it seems like my exodus from KC has been postponed. I'm not upset in that "Damn you, Kansas City!!! When will you free me from your evil clutches?!" way, it's more of a "Come on, past and future employer. Get your shit together. It's my life we're playing with here."

Basically, two different sub-organizations in a much larger organization were telling me things about what needed to happen for me to get this new job rolling, and I chose the wrong group's lead to follow. So now it appears now that I might not be going until spring some time.

Of course, all of this could change at a moment's notice, so once again, I sit and wait. In the mean time, I can continue getting unemployment pay for free, or make just a little bit more money doing temp stuff. Decisions, decisions...

What are you doing? Sleeping?!?!?!?1?

Align Center






















If you don't already have it, go to stumbleupon.com right now and get Stumble Upon. It's basically a little button that gets added to the toolbar of the internet browsing device du jour, and it picks out random sites of interest based on your own interests. You can even stumble specific TYPES of sites. You can stumble Youtube or just videos in general. You can stumble all sorts of news sites, fake news sites, specific news publication sites....It's starting to become ridonkulous. I will warn you, however, that it is crack-like in it's addictiveness.

Already have it? Update your interests!!!!

I've been using it for a few years now and just recently updated my interests. When it first came out, you had maybe a few dozen options, but now it's INSANE. The way they have broken down the categories of interest deserve your attention. The other great thing is now it has neared the point of being useful, beyond just finding funny and obscure articles by your favorite writer, you can set it up to be a work tool. There are that many options.

Anywho, If you didn't already have it, get it. If you already do, update it.

The possibilities for time wasting are limitless.

Better late than never.

Yeah yeah, I've been gone a while. I'm gonna start updating this more regularly. Now that that's out of the way, let's begin.

I'm not sure what it is about shows at The Corbin. The content is always family friendly(ish), but before shows, the Fakers guys only seem capable of talking about the most random, completely inappropriate subjects. A few months ago, it was an idea for a musical that still might be written called "Dick Sauce".

At the most recent show, it was just general discussion of pee-poo, AKA Jenkem, AKA Butt Hash. If you don't know about it, here's how it works: Person wants to get high. Person poos and pees in a container. Balloon is sealed over lid of container. Pee-Poo ferments for a few days. Person inhales gasses from the pee-poo that the balloon has caught. Person is high.

Seriously, wha?

Now we're considering making pee-poo, super customizing it, and selling it on craigslist. Want pee-poo from someone that ate nothing but white chocolate dipped pretzels for a week? Vegetarian pee-poo? You name it, we'll custom make it for you. We'll have to dabble in the market a bit first, though, to see what such a custom product is worth.

That's it for now!
