Standing Tall

Porter and I take to talking about this upon occasion: What the greatest tv theme show songs are. I will always bring up the Perfect Strangers theme show song. It’s compact, like a good tv theme show song should be. It’s catchy, like a good tv theme show song should be. [...]

Holy Cannoli

I was going to just write something about this homework report that came out, and I will in a second. But I went onto ESPN and it seems Terrell Owens tried to committ suicide! Yikes. T.O. is most definitely a drama queen. Note that he took only five of the pain [...]

More ESPN Adventures

So I did another thing for Kenny Mayne this week along with Lathan and a bunch of other UCB-ers. We are re-enacting the 100th anniversary of the forward pass.

An Origin Story

It seems like HBO is intent on playing In Her Shoes like every night this week. So I’ve been watching this.
