Serendipity? Not exactly.

 
There’s really no way to put this lightly, so I’m just going to throw it out there.  
 
I am a Master of the Universe.  
 
Here’s a picture of me in my most natural, Christ-like pose:
 

 
I know.  This probably comes as no surprise to most of my regular readers, but for the rest of you, let [...]

Vegas.

So my cousins and my aunt are probably going to be in Vegas in early August. I've officially asked for some time off to go meet up with them, and I got a definite "maybe".

If The Butt Sex Doesn’t Send Me To Hell, This Will

"…Shot from Peña… Oh! It’s in the back of the net!"

Sick and tired of utilizing duffel bags as makeshift goals, Ray Peña decided a proactive stance needed to be taken on solving the dilemma. With the help of an home depot employee who probably sounded like Speedy Gonzalez’ 2nd cousin, Ray went out and bought PVC piping, nets and corners pieces. Only after first assembly [...]

The Genius That Was Dr. Hunter S. Thompson

I’m very excited about the impending release of the documentary, “Gonzo”, because my respect for Thompson, his style, and his theory, borders idolatry.  Why?  Well, because the Bible wasn’t written by Jesus.  

Hunter S. Thompson is the father of Gonzo Journalism – the most significant literary movement in the past hundred years. And his message [...]

Oregon Trail

My friend Jamie asked if I could get her the original "Oregon Trail". Remember that game? You probably played it elementary school on an old Apple computer. I work with a lot of nerds, so I said I could ask around.
Me: Hey Julian, you're a nerd. Do you [...]
