OK GO! BEST BEST BEST Video EVER

I have seen a lot of music videos in my lifetime. I was there when MTV started. I remember Peter Gabriel’s Sledgehammer, Dire Straits’ Money For Nothing, and MJ’s Thriller, and I can say without exaggeration THIS IS MY NEW FAVORITE MUSIC VIDEO. The Mouse-trappy Rube Goldbergness of it all. A triumph!
I guess EMI smartened [...]

Kimchi Egg Toast

Cinematic morning in San Francisco…
Took a walk to the Ferry Building to explore the Farmers’ Market. Fired up the ol’ iPhone/iPod with Neko Case’s Fox Confessor Brings the Flood, an excellent album for a contemplative outdoor stroll. I pulled together a rich tapestry of gratitude as I enjoyed brisk slightly-cloudy weather, hot chocolate made from [...]

Fanboy Focus w/ Jonah Ray

Interestingly, I went hick with part of that last sentence and then swung it into Brittania for the last word. I sure love playing with words. When read aloud, they're like odorless mouth-farts deftly crafted from the articulating sphincter of [...]

Photos With Stan Lee

There are only three of them, but they will be burned onto my brain as three of the coolest I’ve ever had the privilege of being in. Besides being a genius and a nice guy, it turns out he’s also hilarious. I know I always had a sense of that, but I was lucky enough [...]

I Love Flash Technology

This wee Kingston Micro SD flash drive found its way in the washer and dryer and lived to seamlessly spit its files onto my computer. I LOVE FLASH TECHNOLOGY.

ANDROID REVIEW COMING (and other crap)

Good citizens of The Nerdist, I’d like to address a few things:
1) Why aren’t you posting a ton?
A fair question. I’ve been on the road a lot doing stand-up comedy jokes, covering stuff for G4 and taping a new project for WIRED and PBS. While I realize that the web is, like Streptococcus  salivarius, always [...]
