    Today is a pretty big day, for Piper. Actually, I suppose that it is a pretty big day for us, regarding Piper. I’m not going to go into all of the gritty detail, and I will try very hard not to get ahead of myself. I will tell you the vague details that I have…

  • 30 Rock

    Yes, I stole this picture from the NY Times. I’m sorry. Reagan and I braved the masses gathered in midtown-east last night to watch the lighting of the Christmas tree at Rockerfeller center. Our friend Carl has an office that overlooks the plaza from the 5th avenue side. So, he generously commandeered a conference room…

  • La Musica Coolica #5

    in

    This music post was inspired by Reagan. She has had a crush on Perry Ferrell (no relation to Will), since she saw a picture of him in an Nieman Marcus ad walking some dalmatians. Perry is, of course, the singer for Jane’s Addiction, then for Porno for Pyros. As you may recall, Dave Navarro, was…

  • Petraeus.. a pretty cool guy, for a general

    Ok, I know that I just finished writing about some crap that I read in a magazine. I’m sorry that this is what I’m writing about today. But, you have to check out this article about General David Petraeus. I feel like the majority of the media that I have been reading about the war,…

  • Suspicions confirmed

    I was reading GQ this morning and I read a little blurb about Lil’ Wayne, that confirmed my embarrassment of our country for liking him so much. I feel like it is finally wa(y)ning (waaaaaaaaaaahhhhh! like the pun?) now. But, I swear, for a while, there you could not listen to a hiphop station, without…

  • WP migration

    I have been threatening for a while and now, I finally did it. I have abandonned “Blogger.” The transition was a bit rockier than I had expected, but utlitmately, I think that I like it better. I haven’t decided if I’m going to put a playlist back on here yet. I know that most people…

  • Update RSS

    I’m switching to a dynamic feed. So you you are syndicating this blog (www.jakesnewblog.com) you will need to update the feed url to http://jakesnewblog.com/?feed=rss2 –Nerd

  • Bomb it

    by

    Reagan and I watched another documentary about “street art” last night. It is called “Bomb it.” It was pretty cool. I have to say that foreign graffiti writers seem to be a lot cooler than the ones in the states. The Americans they talked to all seemed like a bunch of total losers, except Shepard…

  • Upgrade

    I thought it would be such a great idea this year, to take advantage of the Black Friday sales and buy some computer crap. Tadd and I went to the Microcenter in Boston around 10 A.M.. Finding a parking spot almost took longer than the amount of time we actually spent in the store. I…

  • Beantown for Turkey Day

    We had a total freaking blast (as usual) in Boston for Thanksgiving. We drove up Wednesday evening, which didn’t end up being very bad, since we stayed clear of 95. Thursday morning I went with Tadd and played a little turkey bowl. I have learned not to travel on Thanksgiving without my cleats. There were…
