Wil Wheaton has an important PSA over at Blogging.LA. Apparently OJ — you know, the guy who was found responsible by a court of law for killing two people ten or so years back — is being allowed to charge for autographs at an upcoming comicon. I think Wil’s commentary stands well enough on his [...]

The Internet is cool: update

Lebowski fans will recognize this as the fine family restaurants where Walter tells The Dude that he could get him a toe by 3:00 — with nail polish.

I’m a private snoop, just like you.
Seamus on the Rack Originally uploaded by corey_porter. A momentous day in Pasadena history, today the Home Brewery of Mediocre Magnitude sold its first bottles of beer. As luck would have it, I was able to be customer number one, purchasing a sixer of Brother Seamus, their Abbey Dubbel style ale. I had this particular [...]
