That's Good Eatin'
by Steve West on February 4, 2012

Recent conversation with Brenda:
Brenda: (Looking through mailer) Would you like to go to Floyd's Barbecue?
me: Why would I want that?
Brenda: We could get $5.00 off any cut.
me: Any cut of what? (Looking at flyer for Floyd's Barbershop not Barbecue)
me: (Seeing picture of barber holding razor poised over a man's cheek) Looks like you can pick your own meat.
Brenda: Oh my God I need new glasses.

Bad Jobs
I've had a few jobs that were pretty bad or at least aspects of them. We've probably all had crappy jobs like working in a kitchen or stuff that's just unpleasant or had difficult co-workers. The worst thing I was required to do was when I was working at the Department of Agriculture. Go »
The Fragrance of Introverts
Recent conversation with Brenda: Brenda: You look so busy. What are you working on now? Me: An advertisement for a cologne for introverts that hasn't been created yet. Go »
Thorough Movie Reviews Revisited
Are you one of the group of people, like myself, who insist that they are not influenced by movie critics and make your film choices based on whim, fancy, instinct or some other method completely unrelated to some "professional's" opinion? Perhaps you should visit this website where you can rate (not review) movies yourself, and compare the result with a series of national reviewers to see whose opinion most closely matches yours. Maybe that particular reviewer deserves a second look since you two seem to be on similar movie viewing wavelengths. Go »
Be Afraid, Be Very Afraid
Because it's Iran Defense Week, their military was on parade to show their strength. Ahmadinejad claimed there were no gay men in the country. Perhaps, but a lot of them resemble Lady Gaga (Scoopy joke). Go »

I'm sure a modern-day update of Sweeney Todd could change the meat pies to BBQ.
