First we’d have a make-out session, with some groping, then oral sex, then sex in predictable positions, then done. Each time I’d lie there afterward and contemplate the empty feeling in my soul. It wasn’t the first time I’d been here, and Alexi wasn’t to blame. I recognized the signs. Porn Sex had struck again.

There’s a lot wrong with this, but...
To be honest, I think I’m looking forward to sleeping in tomorrow morning and tracking down some bagels & lox for breakfast than I am to the general idiot revelry this evening. And hopefully not waking up with a hangover that lets me see through time. Like the year where I powered down 2 King Cobra 40oz and a half bottle of Cold Duck. Never, ever do that.
From Chicagoist:
The 2010 primaries are five weeks from tomorrow and things are getting nasty in the race for the Republican nominate for U.S. Senate. Candidate Andy Martin has put into a rotation an ad that questions the sexuality of opponent (and U.S. Congessman) Mark Kirk. Martin has scheduled an afternoon press conference in which he’ll hit on the theme of “Disclose the facts,...

“Steven Tyler Enters Rehab for Painkiller Addiction”
– I’m sure this isn’t cool, but I hope Steven had a really good time while he was back on the pills. Like, Johnny Cash levels of pill-related fun.
Look what you did, you little jerk.

Tumblr sure is slow when everyone’s off work and away from school, huh? Don’t you people have cellphones? I demand constant interaction and new content from all of you! What the hell am I supposed to do at work? Do I have to resort to random Wikipedia pages? Don’t make me do it, Tumblr. I will - but I won’t like it.

New Harris Poll on Religion Released:
And it’s located here. [.pdf, btw] I love this:
Born-again Christians are much more likely than Catholics or all Protestants to believe in God (97%);
I’d really like to meet that 3% of people who are simultaneously Evangelical/Atheists. I get the feeling that they’re just fucking with the poll taker. That doesn’t even make sense.
On CNN Right Now:
PICK THE RIGHT BOOZE: Reduce your hangover
Going for that vital 17-24 shithead MD 20/20 drinker demographic, eh CNN?
Why is it that if I’m drinking vodka at work at 9am, it’s bad. But if you put a little OJ or some Tomato Juice with it, around the holidays, all of a sudden I can get tipsy with the boss with a bagel and cocktail in my hand?
It’s a Christmas Miracle.
You Know How Ebert Has Those "Movie Glossary"...
Here’s one.
If a Jewish character is introduced as being non-practicing, at some point during the film he will be forced to use something like a napkin or a sock as a yarmulke as he re-discovers his faith.
See: the end of Angels in America.

– Call me dippy, but I hope, hope, hope this happens to me and my wife.

My co-worker just got back from a trip to Israel and brought lots of candy into the office today. One of them is a chocolate bar with pop rocks inside and it has BLOWN MY MIND.
You don’t have to go so far to experience mind-blowing chocolate. If you take a trip to Avondale (the Polish Village) up around Belmont & Milwaukee and go into any little store that...

– And it’s not even April Fools Day!
The line to be cast as a zombie in this film forms right behind me.
Oh, and Variety? You cut out the part of the release where they explain who the hell this Savitch guy is.
“The Lingerie Football League (or ‘LFL’) has become one of POP...”
– God, I love overzealous PR people.
Sports biggest stories of ‘09, huh? Over Tiger Woods? Over Steve McNair’s death? Over hermaphrodite marathon runners and Plaxico Burress and even (gulp) Brett Favre?
Ooooooooooookay, PR guy.

I just realized this. I lie numerous times a day EVERY SINGLE DAY to numerous people on the phone. “Okay, I’ll give him the message.” No I won’t. “He’s actually in a meeting right now.” No he’s not.
Sorry. I’m just a cog in the machine!
This is my life when I’m screening calls at the radio station. “Yes, sir, I’ll pass that on to [HOST].” No, I...
