My favorite albums of 2014
by •
Seems like this post comes later every year. This year, my excuse is my other site I’ve been spending too much time on. And to be honest, I haven’t been that hugely excited about much this year. There are a lot of albums I like, but nothing that really jumps out as number 1 material. So…
NFL Logos as Dicks, brought to you by Kissing Suzy Kolber
by •
I love this set of NFL Logos as dicks posted on the super-funny sports blog Kissing Suzy Kolber earlier today, if only because this Bears logo made me think of the phrase “negative space dick.” I’m not the first person to come up with that phrase, and I’m sure I won’t be the last, but…
Too Many Cooks
by •
Man I haven’t posted anything here in quite some time, mostly ’cause I’ve been focused on other things, but something came up today that is basically exactly what this site is all about.

A Blue Line Tribute Mix

This morning’s CTA blue line derailment at O’Hare airport ( Chicago Tribune Breaking News, WGN TV, Chicagoist ) immediately brought to my mind the 2 songs I could think of about that particular piece of Chicago’s public transit system, which are Local H’s Blue Line and pinebender’s Simp Twister. I figured there must be more out…
2013, Year of the Doglion
by •
These things keep coming later every year, don’t they? I’ve never been the most motivated writer (at least since I was in 8th grade and wrote a 30-page long fantasy short story and thought for a while that I was the best writer ever) and it just seems to come harder and harder every year. The…
A few 2013 songs to tide you over
by •
I am way late with my 2013 album review, which is mostly because I’ve been too lazy to write it up and only partly because the albums that were my favorite as of 12/31/2013 are maybe not my favorites anymore 2 1/2 weeks later. But I’m getting it together, and I’m not changing my list…
