The Appalachian Trail

April 29th, 2008 | Escapes

Day Two of the Delaware Water Gap excursion included spending some time on the Appalachian Trail, which happened to be just a few hundred yards from our campsite. For those of you who are unfamiliar with the Appalachian Trail, it is a strip of natural wonder that severely mentally incapacitated hikers can walk/hike/crawl along from [...]

Delaware Water Gap

April 28th, 2008 | Escapes

Audrey and I split town this past weekend and headed for the crack of land placed between the states of New Jersey and Pennsylvania called the Delaware Water Gap. The Delaware is a slow moving river that forms the border between these states and has lots of alcohol-free campgrounds. Despite the adult-beverage-ban… we did [...]

I am (MySpace) Legend

April 22nd, 2008 | Humor

Way back in April 06 I was newly employed by Gateway and BORED. Bringing a new person on a team with not a lot of work to do means someone will have some downtime. That person was me, and with my being a big MySpace addict at the time, I set upon a quest to [...]

Shea Stadium

April 19th, 2008 | Culture

I scored some free tickets to the Mets game on Wednesday and made my way out there with my friend for a 7:05 start. Shea is definitely the lesser known of the two NYC baseball stadiums closing their doors this year, but it was a cool experience. I found that lots of the fans there [...]

International Tipping

April 16th, 2008 | Culture, Food, Human Stupidity

If you’ve done any traveling abroad, you know that tipping for service is a confusing matter. “Should I tip her for x, she didn’t perform y…do they even take tips in TJ?” Audrey and I had the opportunity of experiencing the trauma this causes a foreigner first hand on Monday.
We went to this pretty awesome [...]

Ok, I’ve been doing this blog for 10 months now and been living with a cat for 9 of those. You’re lucky I haven’t dropped photos like these on you before!
Here are two shots of Zoey doing her absolute favorite things.

Zoey is the laziest drinker of the house. Some claim she’s “swimming” when she’s doing [...]

The Best Restaurant in NYC?

April 6th, 2008 | Food

My neighborhood is very convenient. Within one block, some of my choices of where to spend my dollar are the barber, the pasta store, the Greek coffee/desert dive, the laser surgery place, or what I’m starting to consider my favorite restaurant in the whole city: KOLIBA!!!

This is a hardcore Czech restaurant. Potatoes are the [...]

Hulu

April 2nd, 2008 | General

When they announced it, I scoffed. Why not just put the shows on YouTube? Well kids, I was wrong! Check out Hulu.com, it may change your life. Watch NBC/Fox TV shows and 20th Century Fox/Universal films for free dollars! I wish I didn’t sound like I was giving a terrible, rabid sales pitch for them, [...]
