I drive by the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) building every morning on the way to work. I usually fly by and think about how I skipped Sonic Youth when they opened for Wilco or the long beer lines at Widespread Panic shows. Those thoughts haven't crossed my mind for a couple of weeks. Now, every day I watch out for well-dressed mid-morning jaywalkers because, HOORAY!, it's D.C.

I was almost simultaneously sideswiped and rear-ended driving through Alexandria. I'm gonna let you guess what demographic these Danica Patrick impersonators fall into. How did I respond? Not with anger, but by saying to myself, "These honky drivers be trippin'!" I think that's unfunny enough to be a really successful bumper sticker.

The partner managing my project just threw a hissy feet because he saw people using their blackberrys while coding documents. If you pay people to analyze 1 document every 45 seconds, you gotta expect them to be able to dispatch with a personal message in negligible time. He still wants to dock people's pay. If you do that, you'll have to stop paying me every seven seconds for thinking about sex.

I think it's chemically impossible for me to hang out with people who aren't fun. You can't avoid them sometimes. They are everywhere. I saw in a movie that zombies won't attack if you act just like them. That helps me get out of boring conversations. If I'm talking to an unfun, I just zone out, mutter something unintelligible, then slowly walk away. I can hang out with people who used to be fun

I figured out how to get out of awkward conversations with women at bars. It's something called "Emergency Male Attention", a service provided for female friends I see at a bar to whom I have nothing to say. You know what I'm talking about, you get waved over to say hey to some people, then you get there and realize you/they are really boring that night, or one of you is too sober, or one of you

I think I could relate to this movie. I think its an allegory for the personal conflicts of a powerful black man in America. Special abilities with boundless potential. The isolation of uniqueness. The ability to help people in need but a reluctance to be relied upon by strangers. Alcohol. Lots and lots of alcohol. And a white girl who knows you too well fuckin' up your shit.

April Fool's Day is for the non-humorous what St. Patrick's Day is for the non-Irish. For one whole day they get to pretend that they're clever. And if you remind them that they aren't funny they'll take great offense, not because they're drunk on green swill, but because they're intoxicated by the idea that, deep down inside, maybe they are funny. Just a little. On their grandmother's side.

 I am going to do the best I can to describe this to those that can't watch Youtube at work:The linked video is of crappy metal cover band Metal Skool performing Journey's "Don't Stop Believing" with guest vocals from Dennis Haskins (a.k.a. Saved By The Bell's Mr. Belding) and Dallas Cowboy quarterback Tony Romo. Really, I'm not making that up. The band's frontman repeatedly slanders Haskins

This incident is possibly one of the dumbest things I've ever read about. Shutting down Boston for 12 hours because someone found some batteries attached to an electronic device and thought it was a bomb. They found nine of them. I'm pretty sure that after they found the second one someone should have radioed in that it was just a lit sign. This problem never would have occurred if law

Art Monk should have been in the NFL Hall of Fame a long time ago. It's a tough class again. If I were Paul Tagliabue, former NFL comissioner and life long Redskins fan, I'd give up my spot to Art.

I enjoy '3rd Rock from the Sun', the t.v. show about a group of alien explorers who land in Ohio and are assigned family roles that don't correspond to their training, which causes them to confuse neighbors and amuse viewers. It really speaks to my affinity for both slapstick comedy and socio-anthropological commentary. Furthermore, having been exposed to the ridiculousness of college-campus

Friend of the blog Olympia recently signed to Equal Vision Records, recorded an album in Boston, and will be playing the Black Cat this Saturday, December 30. I suggest you see them so you can be one of those hipsters "who saw them back when", before they remind the industry and other music fans not to sleep on DC and Richmond's post-punk bands.

I was so freaked out by the idea of Steven Segal playing blues clubs wearing a Stevie Ray Vaughn hat and Aikido Hakama that I had to blog about it back in June. (See: Hard to Listen). When I received this video from Rock-A-Dial I had to post it. I am speechless. At least I expect to be speechless after I watch it (I can't watch The You at work), but I'm sure it blows harder than a Texas Tornado.

Two of my favorite bands are playing in DC this weekend. They're both 'experimental' bands, but it's clear to me they already know how to kick ass:Minus the Bear: Based in Seatle, these experimental math rockers use dual guitars and multi-effects to create futuristic surf music that's perfect for screwing around on the water, sitting on the beach, getting hammered, and dancing with hot chicks.

Explain this. Seriously, explain it.Now, I remember throwing snowballs at houses on one or two Halloweens during my youth, but this was on October 12th! My Dad (a.k.a. Papadapolis) said that the power is out and may not return until Tuesday. I've been wishing for it to cool down here in the D.C. Metro area, but sweet baby Jeebus, I'm not ready for two feet of snow.

I think I'm the only person in the DC metro area who's never eaten this brand of baked goods. I have to thank my friend Joey D for that. When we were in highschool he referred to the brand as "Otis Spunk-in-my-ear". Ever since then I've thought, "If crazy old Otis is gonna do that to someone's ear, there's no telling what kind of personal liberties he's taken with the cookie dough."

So my dad bought me and my brother some Fred Perry track jackets. The tags said Up Against The Wall, but I think they fell off the back of a truck. Anyway, I've been wearing a brown one around D.C. lately. I immediately noticed people looking at me, maybe for a few seconds longer than usual. Is it the jacket? It has to be. I've been told I look good in brown. That's not it though. I was watching

In recovery from a kickass Tool concert on Saturday. In financial straits from a ridiculous bartab on Sunday. In a new office with the supervisor eye-ballin' me and my ipod dead. Good thing we have NPR. A treasure trove of free music. The Grapist and I were at a lot of the live shows they recorded, so the site has a lot of stuff I have on my ipod. Give it a listen.

Fall arrived last weekiPod brought Meloy todayDecember shufflesThat's my haiku about the guy to the left, Colin Meloy, lead singer of the Decemberists. Now that fall is here I'm pretty sure Colin will get back into heavy iPod rotation. Happens every year. I'm also pretty sure the Grapist or I will write more about him and the band as their show at the 9:30 approaches. Stay tuned.

Kool-Ade and his boy Courvosier attended the first American Virginfest at Pimlico Race Track this past Saturday. Lots of music, lots of beer, lots of tough decisions.

I hate to debunk ya about the ties, but I feel that there is one fatal flaw to your theory. You said, "4. The Fitshace FactorA drunk guy in a tie gets in less trouble than a drunk guy in a t-shirt. Just watch cops."Let's face it, a drunk guy wearing a tie on his head as a headband is even more likely to get in trouble than a guy in a t-shirt. Not that I know from experience.

What can I say about a sundress that hasn't already been said about Kate Beckinsale. Sexy, classy, sometimes sophisticated, sometimes a little trashy, looks great after a healthy excercise regimen, very close to my heart.

I got turned onto them last week by my boy Chippie. He described them as "a relatively new power-trio out of Boulder…young guys…very Sabbath/Zeppelin..." Hells yeah! I'll be there. With earplugs. Lookin' for a showdown.

I guess this is the "Back In My Day" grouchy old man ending to the Al Groh posts. For those who don't know, head football coach Al Groh wants to get rid of the tradition of wearing ties at UVa Football games. He wants us to wear orange t-shirts and look just like our rivals from down the road. He's well on his way to accomplishing that goal. Except they look like they're having fun and we look

I think we all know Google has a sense of humor. For instance, if you google the word 'failure', you get this site. Clever. But after TDK's "Who Does That?" post, I've come to realize that Google's sense of humor is even more sophomoric than ours. Amazing isn't it? Just take a look at the ads Google has provided us based on that post's content. I love ad revenue, but come on! Real funny Google.
