Some people had been asking me if it has sunk in that I’ll be getting married / have I had any jitters / etc… No real jitters that I can think of (maybe still time for that).
But I think realizations are starting so sink in, now that I’ve just decided that it’s OK to throw [...]

I found the site WeddingSutra.com1 thanks to Meggan’s celebrity wedding cake post. I’m still trying to figure out if this “10 Things Men Don’t Know about Women” is a joke, but I fear it is not…

9. Never mind what she says. She is jealous. Of your mother, your sister, your ex-girlfriend, your new secretary, your [...]

I bet you thought sparse postings meant I was saving up for some massive, unified theory blogpost that would bring the world to it’s knees. Instead you get this link ’splaining that the Dead Kennedys still aren’t the Dead Kennedys (even though they are)*.

It’s long been a joke that Omaha and the rest of Nebraska’s greatest export has been brainpower.

My favorite quote:
Mr Faber likened the gay label to being similar to other niche ventures, such as hip hop and urban music
