    My morning commute never fails to provide entertainment in one way or another. Today I came across this poster for the first time. Being that it is my first time on the “A” train in 10 days, it may have been up for a while already. At first glance, I thought it was a fairly…

    The latest heatwave in NYC claimed a victim in the Breinholt household. Napoleon, A/K/A Napster, A/K/A Napstar, passed away last night. It was not really surprising, given that it was still probably 110 degrees in our apartment at 1:30 A.M. last night when we returned. Thankfully, the Jacks seem to be fine. Napoleon was a…

    Actually, not really roughing it at all. I fired up the lappy tonight just to purge the files from our camera. Lo and behold I am getting a wifi signal from the lodge. Man, this is camping the easy way. Anyway, here are some pics from the various hiking excursions that we have done, this…

    Today we are in a place called duck creek, that is near Cedar City Utah. We drove to CC straight from Moon Lake, yesterday morning. We have not had service for the first half of the week, and that, coupled with the fact that we have been pretty busy the whole time, is why the…

    Thanks again to our homies for agreeing to babysit our car, fish, plants, etc… Not to mention dropping us off at the airport and keeping an eye on PJ for us. We made it to my parents’ house without a hitch. The weather has been amazing, so far. We will be going up to the…

    I feel like I have managed to maintain a fairly positive tone lately when I write. I have have delved into the realm of criticism on a few occasions, but have been good about avoiding blatant negativity. So I feel kind of bad about this, but, right now I’m totally jumping off of the positivity…

    I can’t think of many things in this world that are more exciting than waking up at 5 in the morning to watch 500 women sprint in high heels. Today, I was able to confirm this. Reagan and our friend Becca signed up for the high heel race a couple of weeks ago. It is…

    Question: Jake, I have this neighbor who has, I believe, a gay dog. Can dogs be gay? He squats when he pees, barks like a wussy, and is always needing attention. Is he gay or suffering from gender identity? Submitted by: Smokey Answer: Smokey, your question crosses into a subject that must be dealt with…

    Over the weekend, I was exposed to one of the most aggravatingly dumb things I have ever seen. It is a Parker Brother’s game called Gnip Gnop. No, the “G”s are not silent. Yes, it is ping pong spelled backwards. For only $20 you can own this game. It is made of flimsy plastic and…
