Whilst inputting reciepts from my trip to Iowa (details forthcoming), I ran across a gas reciept from the Kum ‘N’ Go gas station we stopped at in Iowa City, and I started giggling.

Read the first item here, then click the link to the video. God bless the internet for making this available to everyone, everywhere, anytime, instead of just the people who were watching Fox News Channel when this happened.

I’ll be in Iowa the next couple of days, doing a bit of getting the fuck out of Evanston and seeing one of my favorite bands, Wilco, perform for zealous Iowans. I’m sure corn will somehow be involved in the story I tell upon my return at 4am on Monday. So no updates for a ...

Canadians are generally a very nice, very easygoing people. So you really have to piss them off to get them to riot. Congratulations, Axl Rose. You now own the title of second biggest asshole in North America (biggest will belong to G.W. as long as he’s in office, which I hope to god will not ...

It’s a fairly mundane process, but little details can make it really amusing. Like candidates who insist on putting nicknames on the ballot. The Libertarian congressional ...

I could, and should, be doing this for my health, my appearance, my self-esteem, whatever. So what has possesed me to finally stop bitching and start ...
