This Is New York

Posted on June 26, 2010 by erineph

One of the things I do at Job 1 is answer phone calls related to beer distributors.  Specifically, company-owned distributors (of which there are 13 {I think}, but we only support 8 so far), which are generally huge and themselves … Continue reading →

That Time I Was Funny

Posted on June 23, 2010 by erineph

Aunt Becky bemoaned the fact that web media groups don’t recognize blogs like hers ours (ie, blogs that say “fuck” a lot).  I read this and thought waaaaaaaa.  The Bloggies don’t pay attention to you and that’s sad because this … Continue reading →

Six Books for a Personal Pan Pizza

Posted on June 21, 2010 by erineph

A friend of mine recently started dating a girl who’s a little…um…weird.  Maybe that’s unfair.  I’ve only met her a couple of times, and I’m sure what’s weird in her is partly due to her age, which is not very … Continue reading →

A short list of things I am bad at: 1. Math 2. Basketball 3. Serving I thought I’d get used to serving.  Not to sound like a dick or anything, but I’m a fast learner and become reasonably awesome at … Continue reading →

I’ve Been (C)hosed

Posted on June 14, 2010 by erineph

This Is the Crazy Frog

Posted on June 12, 2010 by erineph

Posted on June 10, 2010 by erineph
