Yep, we just added it. Ready to rock...and to roll.

He was by far the best thing about The Pacific.

As a journalist, I can look back on the past few decades and peg the Reagan administration as the point where the need for equivalence in reportage broke down. Newspeople are still clinging to that outmoded trope, although all the evidence suggests it long ago outlived its necessity. The question is, in our current…

I was absolutely livid at Trump voters after the election. How could they ignore everything that made him such a despicable human being? I went on an online rampage, savaging them on every forum I could find. When I calmed down, it dawned on me that many of them probably voted for Trump the same way I voted for…

I understand and agree with what you’re saying. Being in a pure flow state unshackles you from the inner critic that can keep you from doing the things you really want to do. But let’s play devil’s advocate for a moment. If you’re in a state of flow, you’re not really focused on what’s going on around you.…

“Kim is a person of normal intelligence.”

Lost me. But I agree with your assessment of mental health and the need for more awareness. Maybe that’ll end up being Kanye’s legacy.

Let’s say you manage an IT shop and it’s your job to hire programmers. You vet several people, but in the end decide to go with the guy who has absolutely no experience in programming, but assures you he’d be the best damn programmer who ever walked through your door. Is there a possibility he might do one or two…

Imagine if it happened in real life. You go and buy a computer at Best Buy, and as you’re leaving, the salesperson says “Sir, aren’t you going to buy another computer?”

Some eBay sellers have taken to putting the message “Last one!” on their sales items, with the hope that FOMO will make them sell more quickly. After the item sells, an identical one often appears the next day, with the title...well, you know.

The exercise in mass hysteria called Black Friday is interesting from a psychological perspective, and I used to actually indulge. But I finally realized I was just setting myself up for disappointment, and that many of those “deals” aren’t worth driving to the store for, much less getting up in the middle of the…

Is there a coping-with-a-Trump-presidency hotline? That’s what I could really use right now.

Good strategies. I copy the link to something I want into an email and send it to myself. As I’m deliberating, more emails come in and move it down the list, and most of the time I just forget about it.

I quit drinking for a year, and about the only N/A beers I could stomach were Coors amber and Kaliber, which is made by Guinness. Of the two, Kaliber was my fave.

That’s a thing?

Excellent piece. I’d been hesitant to travel to Europe because of the communication barrier, so my wife and I went to London last year instead. Turned out I couldn’t understand some of the Scottish and Cockney people I met. This year we took the plunge and went on a 15-day European tour, and the language differences…

You've taken your first step into a larger world.

CBS was obviously going for the shock factor, because that's what networks do. As TV loses ground to the plethora of other entertainment options out there, I'm sure we'll be inundated with more crap like this. That show would have played better as an expose on 60 Minutes. I suppose at the very least it made us aware…

Left lanes? Head-on collision territory.

I'm gettin' tired of him.

Next to the antipasto.
