Don't laugh at me just because I masturbate panda bears for a living
Posted on April 29th 2008
The Giant Panda, particularly of the iconic Sichuan subspecies, is not only a beautiful, intelligent, gentle, and majestic creature, but a powerful symbol of how mankind has driven them - and so many other incredible animals - to the brink of extinction.
Ironically, the panda is one of the...
ReadJunk.com Re-Design in the Works?
Posted on May 8th 2008
Yes, yes…I know what you’re thinking. Don’t you guys re-design the website every 6 months? Yeah, I like to tweak things up and try new things every once & awhile. I like to change color schemes since I’m fickle. Now, I’m thinking it’s time to re-format and change up ReadJunk.com completely! This...
The day that Mr. Rogers died
Posted on April 23th 2008
For most people, some of the saddest days in their life occur when they lose a loved one, friend or pet. One of the saddest days in my life was February 27, 2003. That day the world lost one of its' greatest citizens...Mr. Fred Rogers.
I was watching a documentary recently on Mr. Rogers...
Back In Time: Good Riddance's Ballads from the Revolution
Posted on March 22th 2008
I got a bit nostalgic a few days ago. I decided to bring out some of my favourite ska and punk albums from when I was a teenager. I got rid of most of them, the shitty third wave ska compilations and tongue-in-cheek punk albums (Diesel Boy unfortunately does not withstand the test of time). Among...
Mighty Mighty Blogtones
Posted on May 7th 2008
At the end of 2003, when The Mighty Mighty Bosstones announced their hiatus, my little plaid world crumbled to pieces. I just couldn't understand it. "Pay Attention" certainly didn't get the recognition it deserved, but "Jack Knife to a Swan" was a really solid album. I was sure if they went...

Middletown Psych Center Pt. 2
Posted on April 13th 2008
Ahh...another visit to the lovely Middletown Psych Center. Once again we had EMF reader and cameras with us; but this time, we also brought a voice recorder and microphone.
Now, the night before we had went to the Psych Center briefly, and while walking around with the EMF reader, I had felt a...
What the hell can I watch on tv during the day?
Posted on April 8th 2008
Now that I'm home, unemployed, collecting severance and trying to find a new job, the other big important item is, what can I watch on television during the day? The answer is not a whole helluva lot! Getting up a little later than I'm used to, but still early enough that I don't feel entirely...
Good Eats
Posted on April 7th 2008
I'm a vegetarian and have been for 8+ years but I can not stop watching Good Eats. I freaking love it! Alton is the coolest food dude ever. I usually skip his meat shows, but sometimes I just watch because he's like a chef and chemist in one. Agree or Disagree?
PS - Maxwells (Hoboken, NJ)...
Once upon a Weezer
Posted on April 21th 2008
Recently I got to listen to some brand spanking new Weezer, by accident of course and not realizing that they have been cooking up something lately. In my high school days and back when Weezer was good, I was a huge appreciator of the first Self titled (nicknamed the Blue Album) and Pinkerton...
