I know a lot of people that ride motorcycles. I tell them they're idiots. But I don't harp on them about it. What's the point? They know the dangers. I remember when I turned 16 and everyone my age was …

I'm staying with friends in Auburn, New York. I love this tiny town. I saw Harriet Tubmans house. I saw a place that Lincoln's Secretary of State, who purchased Alaska, had lived. There was a tiny diner, and my friend …

I remember about five years ago, Jefferson Airplane/Starship singer Grace Slick was at a gallery in La Jolla selling paintings. One fan with the classic “Surrealistic Pillow” album (Somebody to Love, White Rabbit), one of the top five albums to …

I'm in New York visiting friends, and an argument broke out (I know, I know...they usually occur when I'm around, but this one wasn't my fault. Honest). A couple debates the sentence of a guy fleeing from a cop on …

I often complain about the jury system. And people try to tell me it's the best system in the world, and not much could make it better. When I mention the many killers that have gotten off, because the jury …

I got so lucky with my dog. I got a little guy from the pound that's already house trained. I'm used to sleeping in, but he'll wake me up at 6:30 a.m. wanting to go out and do his morning …

Lance Armstrong broke his collar bone in a bike race in Spain. ESPN didn't give the details, and something I read online didn't give specifics, other then the fact that riders were piling up in front of him when he …

I came home today, and there's all this stuff on the news about plane crashes. The other day in the paper, there were a few, too. One was a FedEx jet in Tokyo that burst into flames after bouncing off …

I read a story a few weeks back, about a dentist that was arrested for feeling up his patients. Talk about a thorough check up. I think one woman went in for a jaw problem, and he convinced her that …

Anyone remember that show? I was about 5 when I saw a few episodes of it. It wasn't until years later, as a Lakers fan, that I realized their late announcer Chick Hearn, was also the host of that show. …

A few blogs ago, someone posted about me always thinking I'm right. And, I immediately thought of the Holly Hunter line in Broadcast News. She's disappointed that her friend and co-worker Albert Brooks doesn't get to do a live news …

A lot of my friends hate my idea of taking the drivers license away from anyone over the age of 70. Trust me, it's a great idea. You can post on here all you want about your grandfather who is …

I thought I'd do a blog on the weirdest band names in music. But there are so many, that it would be a list of thousands. The 60s alone gave us Strawberry Alarm Clock, Peanut Butter Conspiracy, Quicksilver Messenger Service, …

I heard on the radio, that at some high school a girl was "sexting" with her boyfriend. That's texting, but it includes naked photos. The guy did what most teenage boys would do...showed all his buddies. The girl didn't kill …

My girlfriend and I were driving by Balboa Park on Saturday. There was more traffic then I've ever seen. She said, "Oh, it's probably because there's a rummage sale." I laughed and said, "Uh...I don't think this many cars are …

I had a friend named Bill (wow, that sounds like an intro for an AA book or something). When you have a friend from childhood, and you grow up and realize they're actually a jerk, it's tough. You look back, …

I hate to always take an event in the media and just blog about it. Partly because, we see it all being covered to death in other forms of media. Who cares about my rant about it, which is probably …

There was a court case in San Diego recently, in which a man was convicted of shaking and choking his girlfriend's Chihuahua. The dog had to be euthanized. The guy that did this -- Fernando. The dog -- Roscoe. I …

So many idiots, so little time. I'm not sure if I can blog about 'em all in one day. But I'll try, damn it, I'll try. An 82-year-old guy died. I can't believe this dope made it to the age …

My girlfriend brought me a supply of Coke Zero the other day. I realized I was drinking so much soda, it couldn't be good. I've tried diet sodas, and they were disgusting. But Coke Zero tastes a lot better. It …

I turned on my computer, and a story popped up about Metallica singer James Hetfield checking into a hospital for "dehydration." It's funny that musicians always suffer from that and "exhaustion." Yet, you never hear about a guy working for …

My girlfriend and I were having a nice dinner in Point Loma at Miguel's. As we walked in, I laughed about a few things. When we ate here with my parents once, we wondered if this was a chain, since …

My older brother gives me crap for having a small dog (among other things). And, I started thinking about it. My two older brothers always liked the things guys are supposed to like. I didn't. That doesn't mean I was …

I'm sure everyone saw this crazy black lady that called 911 because she didn't get her Chicken McNuggets at McDonald's. The funniest comments on this came from late-night syndicated radio DJ Phil Hendry. He did a fake interview with a …

You know what yesterday was? Well, it was Square Root Day, of course (kind of a cheap trick using the band name The Roots in the title...I figured I'd sucker in a few fans of that band). I don't know …

I remember when the story came out about 6 months ago. I forgot all the details, but it involved a principal at some school confiscating a kids beeper or cell phone. I guess it was a cell phone. Nobody really …

For the second week in a row, the Tyler Perry movie is number one at the box office. I can't believe that. Is our society so insane that they frequent such crappy entertainment? And, I heard someone on the radio …

Wow, what incredible weather we had yesterday. Okay...maybe the weather is incredible today, but I haven't been outside yet. My girlfriend and I went downtown. We called a friend to see if she wanted to meet us at a certain …
