Nothing much to report right now, but I just finished watching The Office (thank God for the DVR). Sweet monkey pie, that was a funny episode. Read more…
Welcome back, kids. This weekend, like most Americans, I watched a lot of TV. A LOT of TV. And while viewing several dozen football games, I noticed a disturbing trend in TV commercials. This year, Santa is inadequate.
