Happy Gilmour and gas prices 2

On my way home from Florida yesterday I was standing at the airport waiting to get my suitcase from baggage check. There were 2 people standing near me that reminded me of the movie Happy Gilmour. It was a man in his 40’s with a moustache resembling that of Ben Stiller’s moustache in the movie ...

Talking on cell phones while driving 1

In response to my buddy iBrett‘s posting on talking on cell phones while driving, I have put together a list of reasons why I think that talking on cell phones while driving is dangerous and should be avoided. I’ve seen the outcome of people talking on their cell phones first-hand, and I’m also guilty of ...

Should have been a stuntman? 1

I had an anonymous friend who was in town at the beer festival with his friends on Saturday. After he was done at the beer festival he had too much to drink to drive his car, so I met up with him and drove it for him. As I was buckling up my seatbelt, he ...

Toilet memo 1

I’ve had memos placed on my desk; I’ve had memos sent in the mail. I’ve even seen a local pizza parlour called “Pizza Memo”. But today was the first time I’ve ever seen a toilet memo at work. I’m not talking about those advertising posters they place above the urinals to keep us entertained while ...

Trailer Crashers 2

Received an email today from a buddy at work. I didn’t have time to check it out until tonight, but he was correct in the subject of the email when he said “Be Prepared to bust a gut”. Click the image below to see the trailer for my upcoming movie “Trailer Crashers“, starring my buddy ...
