Tickets to a Charlotte Bobcats game, including a LYNX train ticket into uptown, are only $15. When I have a job, and I turn 21, I think I might become a Bobcats fan.

From an interview with Rhett Miller.
I’ve got a song right now that I’m really torn about what I’m going to do with. It’s called “Government Man” and I wrote it about a friend of mine who is in the service. He just got back from a year in Iraq and we’re afraid he’s going to get sent back. And he challenged me, “Well nobody’s writing songs about how they’re pissed off about this.” And the only way I could do it was to write a song to...

Apologies to my Hispanic neighbors...
In my apartment complex there is one sprinkler that always sprays straight up and rains down on the drive. Every once in a while, there’s a Hispanic gentleman who repeatedly drives his car through the spray, back and forth, in both directions. The girl and I have termed this a “Mexican Car Wash”.

I am addicted to the work these guys do. They’re the ones who designed the Obama campaign’s official typeface, Gotham (By the way, he had his own fucking typeface, and that’s why he won, I assure you). The latest font of theirs that’s driving me crazy is Archer, best known as the Wells Fargo typeface. I want to use their fonts in everything.
This is why you don't yell things at the POTUS.
The man running against Rep. Joe Wilson in 2010, Mr. Rob Miller, has raised almost three quarters of a million dollars since his incumbent dickbag opponent’s spectacular display of disrespect for both the President and the rules of Congress. That’s 7x what Mr. Miller raised in his entire campaign in 2008. With only $100,000, Mr. Miller garnered 46% of the vote.

Because I am an affable Greek, I talked about being Greek with the Greek lady who runs a great diner down the street. Because I am an adorable Greek, she gave us two free tickets to the Yiasou Greek Festival.
A gyro, four tiropitas, a Coke (surprisingly not Pepsi), two baklava, and a loaf of village bread to take home. All for under $20. So awesome, Charlotte. You win.

The new iPod nano has a video camera built in. So, for $149, you get an iPod and a Flip camera together in a pretty glass and aluminum package.
The guys at Flip just shit their pants.
I hate “Two and a Half Men”.
Do onto others as you would have done undo you.

JOTW #2: Yes, I'm really doing these once a week.
Two old couples are walking along, wives in front, husbands in back.
Husband 1: Gee, we went to a new restaurant last night and had the best meal ever. Good prices too.
Husband 2: We should all go sometime! What was the name of the restaurant?
Husband 1: Oy. I'm getting so fuzzy-minded. I'm thinking... it's the name of a flower...
Husband 2: Daisy? Petunia?
Husband 1: No, no. It's a red flower, smells sweet, grows on a thorny bush?
Husband 2: You mean rose?
Husband 1: Yes, yes, that's it! Rose. Hey, Rose. What was the name of the restaurant we ate at last night?
First, you got to scoop your hand into the huge bowl of ground meat, onion,...
