Damn You Fox… again!

By Ryan Livingston / January 30, 2004 /

Bless me father, for I have slipped… it has been 7 months since I last stabbed FOX in the groin with a dull pencil. So mush [sic] has happened since last that post, I don’t know where to begin. I guess I should start by saying I’m sorry for leaving my post. But the wealth…

We Interrupt This Late-Breaking News Report…

By Ryan Livingston / January 27, 2004 /

…for a word from our sponsor? One of the few advantages of a network having it’s own news agency is, when your watching your favorite show, you can be alerted at a moments notice to the goings on around you. Thus, the average couch-potato can be briefed about the end of the world without having…

A Brush With Celebrity

By Ryan Livingston / January 26, 2004 /

Last night I watched Cartoon Network’s [Adult Swim], specifically Space Ghost: Coast-to-Coast. It got me remembering the time I met David Carradine at a convention. George Lowe, the voice of Space Ghost, was also there and I met him as well. But back to Carradine. He was scheduled to arrive at 3pm. I got to…

An Open Letter…

By Ryan Livingston / January 20, 2004 /

To the punks who stole my garbage can lid, The winter season is upon us. As such, the horrific winds and snows this time of year can be quite brutal. That is why it caused much dismay to see my garbage can unlidded. The sight of naked garbage on the curbside in 20-degree temperature is…

Foul Language

By Ryan Livingston / January 13, 2004 /

I’d hate to bite the hand that will potentially feed me, but I have no choice. As we advance in the methods of communication, we lose quality in what is said. I’m sure the more lucid of us knows what I mean, however all those “l33t” folk may be a tad lost. So, let me…

What the Fortune?!

By Ryan Livingston / January 8, 2004 /

There are idiots in the world. I know; I’ve seen them; they’re often on Wheel of Fortune. It was tonight’s edition where it happened that I lost faith in the human race- not that I had found it prior to tonight, but you get the point. The category was “Song/Artist” – meaning that there would…

Standard New Years Resolution #42 – Enlightenment

By Ryan Livingston / January 6, 2004 /

Along with subscribing to everyone’s favorite resolution – getting fit – I have decided to enlighten myself in all matters of things. Right now I am a fountain of useless trivia – good for shouting at game shows, but little else. I need to get more functional. I started this endeavor prior to New Years…

Standard New Years Resolution #2 – Getting Fit

By Ryan Livingston / January 5, 2004 /

Happy New Year to all, first off. At the stroke of midnight on that fateful night each year, many of the sober of us (and those not so) declare our goals for the coming calendar. Some are lofty, vowing monumental changes not even possible with a crate of ambrosia at the ready. Some are more…

Winter hath returned!

By Ryan Livingston / December 6, 2003 /

Today, for those of you elsewhere than where I am, the East Coast was, or still is rather, ravaged by a “Nor’easter.” Again, for the benefit of those in sunnier places, a nor’easter is this: blizzard conditions accompanied by torrential rains, winds, floods, thunder and lightning and the occasional locusts. They usually begin on a…

Validating My Parking

By Ryan Livingston / November 20, 2003 /

One of my meager goals in life is to one day have someone, anyone, quote me… and quote me correctly with proper citation, etc. It doesn’t have to be taken in context; nothing worth noting ever is taken in context. Nor does it have to shed upon me a positive light; the citation could be…
