A Nice Hard Slap – I Love You, Whore!

What follows is an email I received from Electronic Arts this afternoon after playing a little game called Lottso! on the Pogo.com game service, a place I often visit to decompress and play Scrabble and Monopoly (almost as vital as oxygen to me but only played with good friends for strangers are the worst).

Unemployment

Been meaning to write on here much more often. Sadly, I found out about this gig, around the same time my company starting circling the drain. We rent out rooms and equipment for people to edit video for TV. Just one of the many post houses scattered throughout NYC. It got a little scary back … Continue reading

That’s a bit of a pretentious title calculated to get your attention… I don’t really know when I “discovered” music and I won’t bore you with the history of my musical tastes. I really just want to talk about this one band I’ve gotten really into lately because it’s hit me like a bit of … Continue reading
