    So there I was this morning, minding my own business, getting ready to shower, when there I saw it: a monkey. As far as I can tell, there was no reason behind the monkey. It was just sitting there, under my sink, monkeying. This was a stuffed monkey, of course.
  • The Lamest Surprise Party Ever

    Surprise parties always seem like a good idea in theory. What better way to show someone that they’re important to you than to pretend for most of the day that everyone forgot their birthday, and then jump out and yell at them hours later. So in honor of my brother’s impending 24th birthday, we dec...

    Recently, I was leisurely perusing our site’s “Top Visitors” list, when I discovered that we had managed a rather unexpected achievement: I have been bumped from the number one spot. This is remarkable enough to warrant a blog for one reason: I’m the administrator.

    So I was checking out the Amazon page for my book the other day, and I noticed the keywords that Amazon chose for it, which include the phrase “garbage ship.” And I thought to myself, who wouldn’t want to read a book with a key phrase of “garbage ship”? The Amazon employee who picks out the keywords...

    For the second weekly installment of my clever quotes, and by “my clever quotes,” I mean quotes that other people came up with that I’m quoting, I present to you “the miscellaneous collection.” I keep telling myself, “jumping on the moving fair train as it passes by is a terrible idea.

    For informational purposes, I have uploaded a picture of what Suzanna would look like if she were a demon from hell. You’re welcome. Incidentally, it’s not a good look for her. I wouldn’t recommend it.

    Do you suppose that the “Free Credit Report” guy really plays the guitar? And that maybe he and the other guys in their fake band actually have a real band, one that goes on tour and makes cute comments about their appearances on commercials? And maybe they even run out on stage wearing pirate hats ...

    It has occurred to me that, with the addition of my most recent blog entry, the amount of cat-related content on our website has reached dangerously high levels. After careful calculation, I have determined that even one more cat picture would officially turn our website into a cat blog.
