Chances are you’ve been introduced to the Dutch phrase “Carpe Diem” in one of 3 ways:
1. A borderline gay movie featuring Robin Williams and some schoolboys, held up in a Northeastern prep school in the 1950’s.
2. A coffee mug on someone’s desk in your office.
3. An interview published featuring a resume-building high school kid, destined […]

Here in the land of Missouri we are currently about 3 days away from being in the midst of one of the most exciting times of the year - tailgate season. As much as I’d like to make a valiant effort at writing a blog about inspirational living or making one of them internet […]

I’m sure many a person my age looks around one day and asks, “Where did everybody go?” Friday night rolls around and I’ve got 4 or 5 people I can call, hopefully snagging 2 of them for a night out on the town. A few years ago it seemed like I couldn’t keep […]

There’s no doubt that the 20-something American male communicates better amongst his peers using movie quotes than actual, original statements. They make us laugh, they allow us to identify with one another, they let us express things emotionally that we have no idea how to get across otherwise. Every circle of friends has […]

That’s a lesson that Wayne Gretzky’s father once imparted on the young superstar, and it’s a quote I heard many times when I was younger. As I’ve progressed from spending time on the ice to spending time in the online realm, it still rings true - Anticipate. Plot a Course. Execute.

I get to travel a fair amount. It’s mostly been domestically so far but it’s been a good ride. I’m also quite into ‘dining’. Nothing I hate more than a shite chain restaurant or some batshit gypsy that gets down on fast food. Forgetting the health concerns, it’s just boring to narf on the same […]

For years I’ve done SEO. Day in and day out, all the mo f’n time. Probably more than is healthy, I check site rankings, email people for links, obsess over minute details and think about ways to game a system ruled by the almighty Google. Through that long pursuit, I’ve often read articles and blog […]

Last time’s quote was from an anonymous personal source . . . This time, let us look at what the great writer Charles Dickens wrote after visiting St. Louis in 1842:
”No man ever admits the unhealthiness of the place he dwells in (unless he is going away from it), and I shall therefore, I have […]

Whatever religion you may be, it’s hard to deny that nature and the spirits came together and got something right in forming the Southern California coast. I just spent a week in San Diego (I tend to go there a lot), and it never ceases to make me smile. Waking up to 72 degrees no […]

Last week’s quote came from Andy Gray’s voiceovers on any FIFA soccer video game since like 1995. This week, we get even more obscure and confusing:
“I am real dissapointed that you and I didn’t get big into blow like I had wanted. At least you could have done it with me long enough for me […]
