“He is not the only one who perished, child. Many [...]

As Judi expressed her opinion re: peachy desktops, I took it upon myself to add to the nonsense. From a pic I took ’bout 10 years ago or more. I’m pretty sure It was an Independent Fabrications but then, I could be mistaken. Enjoy.

As I am ahead of many of you by around 7 hours, here are my most recent coffee ramblings…
One. I used to live in Los Angeles. All over L.A. as it were, and had my fair share of idiots in cars harassing me. I would ride from Victory and Coldwater up to Laurel Canyon and [...]

Decided to get off my fat lardy ass and get a ride in. Good for me, because I’m fat and lardy. Anyhow, I dug out my old Swobo LS jersey from 1999 and packed myself in nice and snug. My new Brooks saddle was on my new NC17 seatpost and ready to be broken-in. Slowly. [...]

That’s the question I get from family and friends more often than any other.
Well, I’d say it’s pretty awesome and x-mas-y and butt-assed-cold. -11 this morning, and supposed to get down to -22 tonight. (thats 12 and -4 respectively to you non-metric heads.)

Fuck you, hipster scum. THIS is how you trick.
Update: Now with more embed.

He bugged me the other day about how quiet I’ve been, so Here I am. Back with a clarification and a rant-ish post.
After the election many places I visit on the Intertubes™ were full of ‘haters’ at the fact Obama won. For whatever reason people couldn’t be happy with someone who is intelligent, capable of [...]

It was nice. I met a few people, drank a few beers and snapped a few crappy pics. Crisp Titanium was there. His stuff was WAAYYYY sweet, and he’s a really nice guy to boot. (My pics can never do his craftsmanship justice… just go to his site and say Oohhhhhhhhhhhh…)

You can see a few [...]

The [...]

by ‘them’ i mean the big 3. Seriously. If they tried to make a better car, they wouldn’t be in this mess. I have sympathy for all the workers who are getting canned, losing their pensions, having factories shut down… But fuck the Big 3. They chose to stick with a post WW2, ‘American Dream’ [...]

Allow me to introduce Miss Conduct…

One of my favorite models who is consistently naughty, sexy and gorgeous. Most often shot by my close friend Steen. More of her photos here.

I heard it and I’m 38. I’m wondering how bad it must be for younger people.

Coping with a little help from the cask strength Diaboli and the Maximator. Fuck yeah.

If this is a viral video for Ghostbusters 3 it cold be very well the most over-the-top undertaking since I don’t know when. Imagine what you could do with the money they spent.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you Crystal Head Vodka.

If you have not read the book “Dreams for my Father” by President Obama, this might make you want to. He grew up with a bi-racial friend ‘Ray’ who defined himself with language. He would curse like a sailor.
This is all fine and good, but the fun REALLY begins when you find out that President [...]
