My wife is awesome.
Part of this awesomeness is she knows I love her and doesn’t require me to buy bullshit flowers, chocolates, cards, and so on today. (Another part of this awesomeness means I don’t have to wait until today to guarantee I get laid, either.)
Some of you aren’t so lucky. You get guilt trips [...]

This should be a familiar scene to dads who have sons (and probably a few who have girls):

Had the Midget shootin’ out the other end once, too. Painted the wall. I wrote “warning: contents under pressure” on his diaper to give the Wife a heads up for the next change.

I had a new remixed trailer pointed out to me this week, Gone with the Wind with Vampires:

Clever and well done. Ask me, this is the way it should be done.
Yeah, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies is a funny concept, but it’s like a Saturday Night Live skit that just never ends. And to start [...]

Write a single like Cage the Elephant’s “Ain’t No Rest for the Wicked” and have several companies hijack it for commercials.

I’ve heard it on commercials for the Borderlands video game and TNT’s Leverage, and I feel like there’s at least one more.
Too bad books can’t go viral that way.

Punch Dub, Slug Bug, Punch Buggy. Whatever you call it, you know how to play the game. Now VW has picked up on it and has turned it into an advertising campaign:

My favorite punch buggy incidents occurred in Los Angeles back during the first 4×4 tour. Brian Keene, Mike Huyck and I were all riding [...]

Queensryche’s Operation: Mindcrime is just a brilliant album. I’ve played the cassette nearly to death, and while I’m positive I bought it on CD at some point, I can’t find the disc anywhere. I finally got tired of not having it on my iPod, so when I saw Amazon had the MP3 album listed [...]

This thing has apparently being going viral, but I’m posting it here largely as a reminder to myself:

I’ve not seen all of Ralph Bakshi’s work, but his work ethic as presented here rings true through just about any creative media, not just animation. Writers and artists may not be able to rely on a computer [...]

Scheduling and Internet outages have kept me from posting pics from the signing event over the weekend, but power outages and icy roads have left me with a day off today, so I’ll have something up later today. In the meantime, I’ve got two pics from when I got home.
Most dads bring gifts home to [...]

Last month, Evileye Books added Cullen Bunn & Shawn Lee to their roster with the Raze series. This month they expand again with John Urbancik’s new series DarkWalker. You can find a more complete announcement on Indie Pulp, and the first book is due in May.
These are exciting times for the company. I may have [...]

So help me, I’m looking forward to the new A-Team movie.

When Rampage Jackson as B.A. stands up and the “da-da-daaa” plays in the background? I get chills. I loved this show as a kid.
Yes, the tank bit in the trailer makes me wince a little, but come on, the original series had it’s fair amount [...]
