Branding yourself with "McDonald's" doesn't seem to be that ideal. Ex-Cops, the music you want to listen to when you're in a hurry and you don't see anything else with a drivethrough. Ex-Cops, the music for when you're hungry, you've forgotten your wallet and you only have two bucks and change. Ex-Cops, the music…

What's Sting going to do about it?

If you go into a McDonald's, and asked for them to work hard for you for a few hours cooking them food, and of course explain to them you have no actual budget for food, but will tweet about it and otherwise help with cross promotion, they would be put out and likely ask you to leave the restaurant. The band is…

My GF and I love those. At some point I'm going to make my own, the odd ingredient is sour salt (citric acid). Recipes for all the flavors are on the web.

I have two swords. I wave one or both about while watching TV. I am not good at swords. I am not trained in swords. I feel awesome playing with them. I have accidentally gouged the ceiling. I have accidentally tapped but amazingly did not break a lamp. I will likely someday accidentally kill my monitor with…

My cat of many years used to do this. He was an excellent jumper, and would perch on bookshelves, window legdges or the fridge and he'd alleyoop on to my shoulder when you least expect it. Always welcome, and he'd purr up a storm while I went about my business. He would try doing it to other tall guys who might be…

My anxiety dream over the last five years is that I'm still married, or that I reconciled. So sweet to wake up to just the apartment. Or, better, the GF when she's over. Though of course people's mileage on this varies.

Fistbump. Closing the door on a place that was all my own for the first time was exquisite.

Maybe he's near sighted and it was just cookie puss:

His legislative history is here. Among the features, bills mandating local control of fluoridation, "stand your ground" laws. Often the type who are in government, but don't trust much in government. I hope the kid gets placed with a better class of people.

It's your head, if you find it's getting in the way of life, liberty or pursuit of happiness it may be worthwhile getting it checked out.

Are you sure it's not migraine related? I don't think everyone needs to be medicated for every problem, but if it's getting in your way of life in a major way, you might want to look into it if you haven't. There's several varieties of migraines, including ones with mild or no headaches. I've known some folks…

Seriously, what are they?

I love how Yelp makes people acknowledge they have 0 friends.

Perfume was actually was the most common odorant trigger seen in this study: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2383213…

I read this in a one star review of a Chinese place on Yelp:

My mom used to do that.

True, and not that there's anything wrong with that. Maybe he applies the total orange overcoat to mask any traces of incriminating cosmetics.

That's quite magical. I mean that in the really old school sense, you spoke to him through a spirit animal, had your coven hijack him to a lonely mountaintop, then initiated him in the mysteries of the previously unseen magic underpants. He didn't have a prayer.

He owes much to Mike Nesmith.
