We’re now in Paris, running around like maniacs, but I thought y’all would appreciate some indication that we’re not dead. We’re not dead!

The Jack Bauer Tour Of Europe Begins 1

For those who don’t watch 24, Jack Bauer is Kiefer Sutherland’s character, who often says, “THERE’S NO TIME!” In about two hours, I’m leaving for New York, and from there, I’m going to Europe for five weeks with Mark.

School’s Out

Question For Nerds And Journalists 8

While watching a Headline News story about Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP) phone services, one of the anchors pronoucned the acronym as if it were a single word: “Voyp.” Personally, I thought this was the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard.

These guys have got to learn that you need to use non-live things when pulling Senior Prank. Like my class: We got hold of 25 tons of marshmallows, and blocked the whole front porch of the school off with them, three feet deep. Although they’re still better than the class before us at my school. ...
