About Me

In a song that my friend wrote, there is a line the says "Joe pierces through the riff-raff/ He does that a lot." Yeah, I'm loud and honest. My laugh (which has been affectionately nicknamed the "whoop") can cut through even the loudest of string quartets, and I'll call bull when I see it. If there are shenanigans, I'll be there; if there is free booze, I'll be there, and if there is work to be done, I'm probably at the bar, so join me for shots.

You Are Barney
You could have been an intellectual leader...

Instead, your whole life is an homage to beer

You will be remembered for: your beautiful singing voice and your burps

Your life philosophy: "There's nothing like beer to give you that inflated sense of self-esteem."

My Interests

The world is a very interesting place if you give it a chance. I love scotch, fine poetry, and of course, my good friend Baxter here...

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet somebody who can make a 24 hour deodorant that actually works for 24 hours.

Music:

I pretty much like all kinds of music. Jazz, funk, R&B, hip-hop, I'll give anything a try once.

Books:

Anything by Pynchon, All books by David Sedaris, Hemmingway, Faulkner, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, the list can go on forever.

My Blog

Karate Chop

I often wonder why we, as real human beings, can not simply land a karate chop to fix our problems. It's seems to me that it could be a panacea for oh so many things. Problems with your taxes? Karate ...

Two bites of the Big Apple are enough

My latest adventures in New York can be described as blistery at best. On February 10th I left for a Toy show in New York. Aware that there was to be snow, I packed accordingly and though very little ...

On The Move Part...I've lost count

So I'm moving again. Yup it's true. Scott and Paige bought a house, so now I will be living solo in my one bedroom apartment (in the skyyyyyyy). I'm pretty excited about the whole thing, but...

Why Being Sick Sucks

Because you feel like shit. That is all. I think I'm going to try and take a nap now.

The Importance of Family and Snot Rockets

Yesterday I was driving to work, and as I was stopping at the stoplight a young woman on her bike stopped along side me. I didn't pay much attention to her until the light changed I waited to see if s...

A Letter to My Favorite Season

Dear Summer, Where did you go? I thought we were having a good time together. You with your hot days and warm nights, me with my cold beer and cargo shorts. What happened to us? I don't like to admit...

10 Cents Will Get You Nuts

So I watched the extended pilot of Arrested Development last night, and I must say that it was quite hilarious. I would recommend it.

Slap in the Proverbial "Face"

Mondays are cruel reminders that we, as beings with free will, do not control our own fate. Most of us (or perhaps just me) will wake up, sit on the edge of our bed and wonder why is it that of all ot...
