I came to this not-so-brilliant realization last Thursday before I fell asleep shortly after 9 PM while watching Twister on TBS. The tornado movie is a highly underserved cinema genre. We've had dozens of movies about vampires (the recent Twilight movie comes to mind) and movies about storms in gene...

Check out this funny blooper during a live report on KSTP channel 5 St. Paul about a drug bust in Maplewood, MN. Yes, that was a huge dildo....

Outside of witnessing what can only be termed as a poop fountain on Monday evening, there isn't a whole lot to report on the growth, development and heppenings on the youngling. She hasn't done a repeat performance of the roll but hasn't begun sprouting teeth either. She did, however, have a grand c...

I've never been a beer connoiseur. I've always just drank whatever domestic piss was put in front of me. I'm not fancy nor choosy. I let my tastebuds and my wallet fight it out and decide who will win this battle. In recent years, though, my tastebuds have been more adventurous. Sure, I still favor ...

Have you heard the one about the White House not having an Easter Egg Hunt this year? Oh, well it's because the Obama family has planted the White House lawn to watermelons. Yep, a black man loves watermelons. Oh, some people are so fucking funny. What, are people that come up with this shit from my...

Why in the holy hell do Minnesotans rustle themselves up into shear panic when snow starts magically falling from the sky. You'd swear that God himself were shitting cement blocks on us and that hunkering down in the basement was your only safe course of action. Alas, it's just snow. But then there'...

This entry, from last summer, ties in nicely with yesterday's Walmart rant. I recommend reading it and elaborating about how you shop... Forgive me, but I was at the local Wal-Mart late yesterday afternoon. Yes, after years of vowing that I wouldn't become a Wal-Mart shopper, I have done just that b...

Walmart is the bane of my existence. For many of most youthful days, the faroff destination of Walmart seemed so mystical to the young me. The twenty mile trip to the nearest Walmart was a true family affair. So much stuff under one cramped roof. That original Albert Lea store was so awe-inspiring t...

What's the most logical thing to do at 9 PM on a Thursday night when both you and your wife are crazy-hungry? Make brownies, of course. That's jsut what I planned on doing as I tore through those cupboards that are too high up to reach from the floor. You know the ones. Hanging precariously from the...

Burning coal is dirty business. It's so dirty that our government has decided to invest nearly $100 million in a project to bury carbon. But carbon is a gas, right? Yep. But the plan is to pump the sequestered gas far under the surface of the Earth under multiple layers of stone and such. All for th...
