I hadn't looked at the JLO twin baby pictures until today because I really don't care what JLO does…until now. As Gawker points out, one of her babies might end up playing a significant role in future events. I mean, just look at that thing! Color me profoundly disturbed.
I especially love the [...]

Lovers of kitsch (myself included) can’t help but be drawn in by the fifties-style blue exterior of this converted gas station. Continue to delight in the knick-knack adorned walls and velvet paintings of the interior. If you’re like me, you may also recognize their Ikea chairs. But the [...]

Richie Sambora Busted for DUI.
Gah!

Saturday, even after a very lovely day of BBQing and pokering and general merriment, our little love nest was once again invaded by some jerks. Beer had been flowing steadily since 4pm so we had some people crashing out in our guest room which is why, even though I currently sleep with a knife under [...]

The punishment comes in the form of Funny Games, a [...]

If 5000 square feet of games and booze is hell, I’m happy to go there. OK, so I suppose that in the full swing of UW’s school year, the inferno does lap at your nerves a bit. But when school’s out, the adults can fully enjoy all that Dante’s [...]

For some reason, even though I HATED the Punisher movie, I really like Tom Jane. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that he's married to Patricia Arquette whom I love. In addition to being in some fantastic movies (True Romance, Human Nature, Lost Highway) she has awesome taste in men. After [...]

Local food god Tom Douglas owns Belltown with his unique gourmet twists on everyday foodstuffs. The man is so beloved by his patrons that he could probably start a cult. I might even be among those who would happily slurp his Kool-Aid cocktail. Serious Pies, his take on the [...]
