Bag boy.

Today, on a very empty stomach, I am engaging in one of my favorite activities (and perhaps the best form of therapy available): Reducing my stuff into two suitcases.
I have honed this skill over the last few years, with well over 20 moves (I’ve lost track) under my belt. However, this move is a bit [...]

Because I’ve received many emails asking about my health, I wanted to follow up with another update.
Last week, I went in for my pre-colonoscopy consultation. My colonoscopy is scheduled for Monday, and as such, I will have to abstain from solid fluids starting Sunday morning. For someone that eats as much as I do, this [...]

Dear seat-skipping straight boy,
Last night, I went to see The Twilight Saga: New Moon with a friend, Craig, from Massachusetts.
My friend is gay and we were discussing the tendency of some straight guys (like you) to leave an empty seat in between them at the movies. I don’t know if this is an international phenomenon, [...]

Just in time for Black Friday, I’m excited to release “bums not bombs” underwear. Grab a pair in all three colors – and maybe even stuff a stocking or two. Click here to check ‘em out.

Each day, these [...]

I want to create a talky blog/youtube video on this topic: 10 words to inspire a generation.
If you had only ten words (or less) to communicate a message that would inspire and/or transform the next generation of earthlings, what would you say? That’s it – just 10 words!
Leave your answer in the comments. If it [...]

I suppose it might be possible to “have” what could be considered a bad day. But I think that this statement is incomplete and misleading.
For example: Tonight, I had a bad dinner. I heated up some taco meat from the distant past, and added some dried up cheese to an even drier tortilla. I’m trying [...]

This afternoon, I was reading a book in the doctor’s office when I was suddenly overcome with a sharp increase in awareness.
It caught me off guard, but I immediately noticed a dramatic sharpening in the colors around me. The room became brighter and more detailed. It was like the world was being Photoshopped. I glanced [...]
