Part Four is Done
I have no idea what they are doing or why they are doing it, but for some reason a group of men are absolutely demolishing the street in front of my building. And they’re using a jackhammer. And it starts very early and it goes all day. Also today they did something that screwed up the water lines on my block and I had no water and then I had brown water. It has been a weird week and now I am... [Read more]
The Google Search Game
I’ve chatted about Google here and there on this site, but recently I’ve discovered a whole new game to play with my favorite search engine. I can’t really take any credit for this, it’s starting to pop up in more and more places. It seems the kids these days have been doing this for awhile now with their hair and their rap music, but it’s new to me. Basically the game... [Read more]
First Art Entry
The first entry to the fan art contest arrived a few weeks ago. I’m really not sure how many entries to expect. We’re still pretty small potatoes here at JD Industries but we’re growing every day and I’m hoping for a nice slew of fan art by the end. Of course there won’t be much for awhile, as is the nature of these things, so I got very excited when the first email with... [Read more]
5 Products That Should Act More Like Their Commercials
Over the past few years the amount of television that I watch live has dwindled to nearly nothing. A vast majority of my viewing is pre-recorded or on DVD. The result has been a sharp decrease in my exposure to ads. This changes occasionally when something must be watched live, usually a sporting event, and results in a glut of advertising hitting my brain and me wondering who the hell writes these...

A Quick Update
I passed the 100,000 word mark a few weeks ago and I thought I should give an update on how the new book is going even though this usually devolves into babble and artsy talk. Things are, to put it mildly, all over the freaking place. I’ve never written a book like this before. Through no overall plan, but because it was just the way things worked out, I always had people reading along as I wrote... [Read more]
Disney World vs New York City
Having spent most of last week in Disney World with my family I found myself a little confused upon returning to New York. I was constantly stepping into lines expecting to see some sort of show or animatronic pirate at the end only to be greeted by people wondering how I take my coffee. While living in this odd mindset of half Disney, half New York I decided to host a little competition between these... [Read more]
Oh, How I Love Sky Mall
As I mentioned the other day, I was away last weekend on a family vacation. This means that I had to board an airplane. And boarding an airplane means I got to read Sky Mall, the single most ridiculous magazine ever printed anywhere. This is not the first blog to be written about Sky Mall, this won’t be the last blog written about Sky Mall, this is simply the most current blog written about Sky... [Read more]
I’m Not Here
So last Friday I left for a family vacation to Disney World and I’m not back yet. I was going to write up a witty and clever post and schedule it to fire off this morning so you would never know I was gone but I got all hopped up on vacation thoughts last week and my discipline went to shit and I never wrote a post. Then I thought I’d just put some pictures up…but I put up a photo... [Read more]
Snow Day
Snowmagaddon was predicted for here in New York yesterday. The same thing was predicted last weekend and we got exactly zero inches of snow. This time around we got some weather and, expecting epic levels of powder, I took my camera around with me whenever I went out during the day to document, you know, stuff and things. Out for morning coffee I took a detour through the park and was duly impressed.... [Read more]
Why I Love and Hate Google
Superbowl Sunday is a favorite night for me, the over-the-top hype (we need more people involved in the coin toss next year), the ridiculous bets my cousin makes (I wind up rooting a lot for safeties) and championship level football (that onsides kick was craziness) never fails to draw me in. But you can’t always count on the football game being interesting, which leaves what used to be my favorite... [Read more]
