    Kerouac and the Outsider – A Puzzle

    A podcast other than THIS IS NOT A TEST

    What are you drinking?

    I'm getting to the bottom of my CostCo sized bottle of gin, so I'm trying to figure out what to get next. Probably a CostCo sized bottle of rye whiskey, but... I guess we'll have to see. My wife and I polished off a full bottle of cheap red wine on Friday which... we don't often do lately...

    Academics who get screwed in America...

    25 years of .com

    Whoops, I failed and missed a dash: http://www.clone-high.com Which also explains why the WhoIs didn't make any sense at all when I looked it up. Also: I never once considered single-letter domains. Hm.

    25 years of .com

    That article reminded me of one of the longest lived sites I know of: clonehigh.com It's one of my favorite animated shows and the other day I went to the site and was SHOCKED to find it was still up. The show aired back in 2003-04 on MTV and then some station in Canada picked it up, but even...

    The Clash in St. Paul, 1979

    Wow $7 for a show. I remember feeling pretty good when I saw a few bands in Portland for $15.

    Cigarette Bro-Poet from Portland

    I saw this yesterday and... ugh, yeah it's really awful. But that's Portland in a nutshellf. I knew a ton of people writing awful poetry that were as pretentiously terrible as this guy. At least he's... erm... Yeah I got nothin'.
