While I was out of town, something BIG launched in DC — a new home for the Redsksins on the airwaves called Triple X ESPN Radio. Sports and Redsksins games will be simulcast on three radio stations (2 FM and 1 AM and a live audio stream on the Internet). [...]

hoorah for vanilla

WTW crisis fading… I’m liking this plainess… I’ve been trying to figure what instigated the ‘crisis’ and I think it has to do with all my favorite ‘gawkermedia’ sites getting a face-lift… keeping up with the JONESes as they say, eh? EH???? YEAH!!

I have a favorite Simpsons quote that’s been running through my [...]

i’ve got nothing to wear

I’m going through a minor “what to wear” crisis here at mz. This is the latest item i’ve decided to try on.. it’s very very vanilla…. and i like it. no menus.. no calendars… no capital letters… it’s just a laissez-faire, stream-of-consciousness, graphics are not so important, kind of thing…

Ed B’s Hail Storm Story

This comes from my brother-in-law Ed in NH:
I thought I’d share the images from that bad hail storm we had a few days ago. I’m not sure if it made national news but it was the worst we have had in this area for a very long time. I was [...]
