Baseball and Androgeny
by Steve West on May 8, 2013

Recent conversation with Brenda:
me: (watching baseball) Do you realize how filthy professional baseball players are?
Brenda: Not first-hand, no.
me: Look at these guys. Spitting nut seeds all over the place, spitting tobacco juice anywhere they please, adjusting their cups constantly...
Brenda: Should they not adjust their cups?
me: I just wish there was a tasteful way to get the job done instead of everybody doing a Michael Jackson impersonation.
Brenda: I'm not sure Michael Jackson ever had a need to wear a cup, if you know what I'm saying.

Pass Out Drunk And Still Be The Life Of The Party
I haven't passed out drunk since my brother's bachelor party 25 years ago. Thankfully nobody cared enough to torture me like these guys. I experience schadenfreude seeing photos of this nature but still laugh my silly ass off. Go »
Have a Nice Day!

Toothpicks, They're Not Just For Club Sandwiches Anymore
Remember back in fifth grade when you had to build that bridge, vague geometric shape, outhose, etc. out of toothpicks? The project so fragile if the bus to school took a turn at more than 2 mph, it would crumble to pieces. Go »
Out of the Closet and into the Stratosphere
So Tom Cruise wants to go into outer space and meet aliens. I think I can scrounge together a few bucks for a one-way ticket. Any other takers? Go »
