Bahsten

On my way to go climbing earlier today, I had to walk through this sketchy section of town.

It looks like the kind of place where you'll find yourself dumped into a puddle with both legs broken.

A game I do not want to play

Not only is this game intimidating to look at, but the instructions are just plain insulting. They question if potential players have sufficient grey matter, if they have enough intellectual acumen, etc to handle the mathematical challenges posed by Tuf.

Yes, Tuf, I have enough - enough to leave you the heck alone!

Despicable black cats of Miami Beach

Hours before we were due to go live nationwide with the Up tour, this stinker crossed our path on the Miami Beach boardwalk. Needless to say, when the time came, we weren't able to fly. Coincidence? Yes. Uncanny? Also yes.

Dr. Jebediah Drinkwell's

I made the checkout guy at Trader Joe's laugh tonight by saying that this wine looks like it was aged in casks lined with old hippies.

It may be that name, hearkening back to the 70's crunchy granola naming motif (now adopted by steampunk authors everywhere) ... Or it may be the Dr's blacklight-poster-ready irridescent hair and beard.
