One of the classes I’m taking this semester is a class on Modern/Postmodern theory and origin. The class consists of 9 or 10 highly intelligent students and a professor that makes me feel like Neanderthal man. The topics are extremely dense and difficult and it’s a challenge and a chore just to keep up. Still, [...] Read more »
I got lost the other day. I pulled up and found the address I was looking for wasn’t there. I knew the fault wasn’t mine, but Google Maps, which had sent me to the wrong street by the right name.
The neighborhood was quiet and idyllic. Green grasses gently blew in the breeze in front of [...] Read more »
I lack the tight pants; they make my hips look boxy and hurt my nuts.
I lack the nifty slogan splayed across my tight dingy T-shirt; they’re so often trite anyway.
I lack the ear spools and facial piercings; I thought about getting my tongue pierced, but I was afraid I’d lose the ability to taste life.
I [...] Read more »
Terri Schiavo died today. Again. It’s odd. The first time she died, it was from bulemia. This time, it was because of forced anorexia.
Here’s the obituary I read on the air for her:
The wait is over. After nearly two weeks without her feeding tube, Terri Schiavo died this morning. Schiavo had been in a persistent [...] Read more »
Yessir, it seems about that time again. Time to offend the masses with conversation that no one really wants to have and that probably shouldn’t be repeated. Yes, today’s topic is circumcision. That’s right, the act of removing the foreskin from the penis.
[ed. - Why do you talk about penises so much? Is there something [...] Read more »
So the other day, aquajubbly asked me if I had ever kissed a friend on the lips. I answered honestly and said I had.
aquajubbly: girls, I’m assuming
aquajubbly: see, I think that’s kinda weird
nbassist: one guy
nbassist: but he was European
aquajubbly: I definitely can’t see you doing that
aquajubbly: on the lips? Not talking about the cheek kind
nbassist: [...] Read more »
I’ve spent the last two days in a counter cultural mecca of freaks and geeks. And it was glorious. As part of my regular abuse of my press privileges, I snagged press passes to Nan Desu Kan for myself, Jeff (who does the Acid Lounge on Radio 1190), and Steph (who does the weekend morning [...] Read more »
This morning, my first day of semi-health back, I biked to the bus stop and caught the bus to campus. While waiting for the bus, a young mother and her child arrived at the stop as well. When the bus pulled up, I carried the stroller (pram for you Brits) up onto the bus for [...] Read more »

What ever happened to the old fashioned date? You know what I mean. The man buys her flowers, takes her out on the town, pays for everything, and comes away happy with a kiss on the cheek. It just doesn’t happen. Now we have group dating, speed dating (2 minutes, couples), internet dating, informal [...] Read more »
Today was unbelievably gorgeous. It meant the women were out in force, simply a pure joy to watch. But something really got on my nerves. I saw ten or twelve women, every time I went outside, holding their skirt down. The point of wearing a short skirt is to show off. I know that. You [...] Read more »
