2013 really just feels like it was yesterday. So much so that the songs at the end of the year Billboard Top 100 are some of my go-to songs for the jukebox when I go to the bar.
JT put out his sorta double album that year, Drake had 4 singles in the Top 50 and “What the Fox Say?” inspired SNL bits and Halloween costumes that year. Continue reading
After looking at the end of the year Billboard list from 2012, I decided, there wasn’t very much I liked in 2010 and 2011 (though, in 2010 I literally listened to Jamie Lidell’s Compass for an entire year). The top 3 songs at the end of the year were Goyte’s “Someone That I Used to Know” Carly Rae Jepson’s “Call Me Maybe” and “We are Young” by fun. Katy Perry and Adele both have several songs on that list. Continue reading
Summer jobs are notorious for being horrid. This post is brought to you by ManchuCandidate who actually survived as a Kirby Vacuum cleaner door-to-door salesman for an entire month. Here is the story in all its horror: Continue reading
Eater.com has asked this question in conjunction with stating America’s seemingly new found appreciation of the taco. They posit that at some point in the near future the taco will eclipse the burger as America’s favorite food (Pizza, you don’t count, apparently.) Continue reading
Yesterday’s Blerg and Biz’s Blove Blog had people stirred up per usual. I happen to believe that the vast majority of pots do have lids out there. You just need to recognize what pot you are and what kinds of lids ‘fit’ you. Continue reading

For example, if Bob and Joe make a registry for a honeymoon in St. Lucia, they can register for activities (e.g. boat rides, couples massage), food and beverages (e.g. hotel champagne) or even travel-related items (e.g. camera, luggage).

About six months ago I started working from home. It wasn’t my choice. The business was not doing well, the owners that used to work under the same roof decided to split, and I was left with an option to work from home or quit. Continue reading
When I was growing up in New York, my dad, the earliest riser in the house, would drive to the deli to buy kaiser rolls, and the Sunday editions of the New York Times and the Daily News every week. If we were lucky, he would be in a good mood and buy us sugar coated jelly rolls and cook up a pound of bacon, as well. Continue reading
I was looking back at the posts I’ve written for CT while applying for a Media Pass to this year’s Hangout Fest and realized that a) I haven’t written anything since August and b) I haven’t done one of these posts since May. Continue reading
Well, if you’re like me, you’re having a really hard day dealing with the bankruptcy of one of the world’s best catalogs to ever make its way down the shitstream from God’s trash can on the crap ferry to hell. SkyMall. Continue reading
