So Nate Shelkey fans! You know who you are! This Sunday, I’ll be reprising my sports opinionated Santa Claus character on ESPN. Sunday Countdown. From 11-1. Or is it 2? Anyway, I should be all over the show this year with little Santa intros and teasers and not just [...]

Woulda Coulda Shoulda
So it appears I passed up the chance to go to the top public high school in the country… Thomas Jefferson School for Science & Technology was just rated the top public school. My dad wanted me to go to this when I was in junior high. I applied to humor him, got [...]
Everything tastes better with peanut butter
You can’t trust the Post. Yesterday, I was intrigued by this story in the news… this Long Island woman was murdered possibly by her husband and supposedly they found her body slathered in peanut butter. And here comes the even crazier part: because the police think the killer[her husband?] thought that it [...]
Mystery at Grand Central
I just purveyed the food offerings at Grand Central on my lunch hour because people had been hyping up the Grand Central Market. I was confused greatly by the market because I thought there would be an area to buy a sandwich but it was all just food you bought by the pound. [...]

Why Is Fox Jockeying For Another Bambi Game?
Watching a pretty exciting Titans/Packer game today. It went to overtime because Rob Bironas missed a field goal with 4 seconds left in regulation. Titans win the toss, march down the field and then get to about the 30 yard line and start to kick a field goal on the third down(smart so [...]
Costume Commitment And Floor X
I was just walking outside and was impressed to see a bunch of people wearing costumes during the day. Adults. These people were not content to just don the costume for a few evening hours. They want to savor the whole day, so they freaking OWN it. For instance, went to [...]
Pizza Wars
When I was traveling abroad, in order to make sense of whatever countries’ currency quickly, I developed my own economic indicator. I used a can of Coke. However much it took to buy a coke, I would then scale that to grasp how much things could buy. That was back when you [...]
The Incline Gets A Shout Out
Watching the Gints vs the ‘Burgh right now and they just showed the freakin’ Incline! For those of you not in the know… the Incline is this old timey amusement in Pittsburgh. It’s a people mover. For the people that live at the top of Mount Washington which is on the south [...]
