I’m taking a little break from recounting my weekend’s travails – which hopefully I’ll complete before next weekend – and trying something Paul suggested on his website: Song lyrics as bulleted lists. He’s got a couple of good examples, so I figured I’d give it a go.

While it’s not really topical anymore, I did have a rather strange weekend. Sam has already recapped some of it, but I figured I’d recount a bit of the jackassery I engaged in these past couple of days:
Once a month, the Sinai temple has something called Friday Night Live. I’ve heard about this [...]

What a [freakin'] weekend. I don’t know if Sam has written about it yet, but I’m sure some sort of summary is forthcoming. In the meantime, you can oogle at my main fantasy football team (in my high school friends league) that was auto-picked for me (more on this later. I’m sure [...]

I tried to figure out the best way to explain all of this, but I give up. So I’ll just list the following just-barely-related facts:

I have a friend named Sam
Sam went to the same high school as Marc Cohn
Marc Cohn was shot in the head
I used to buy a lot of really, really [...]

Perhaps I’m lame, but I think this is pretty much the coolest thing in the world:
* WPG2 Plugin Not Validated *

So, to commemorate the release of Madden ‘06, I hereby challenge anyone and everyone to the best football video game of all time: Tecmo Super Bowl. If you think you can beat me, [...]

In honor of an emerging project — a supposed comic strip — from Justine and Amy, I thought I’d post something one Jackson Pritt did during his tenure as a cartoonist for the UC Davis daily, the California Aggie.
This strip was actually inspired by real events. I came to town for one of my [...]

If you haven’t, read part I of this completely useless and overly verbose analysis here.
When we last left our hero, Mike McD, he’d taken $10,000 from the evil Teddy KGB, giving him $20,000 total. He was even with KGB and Grandma, and “halfway to paying back the professor”, from whom he’d borrowed his initial [...]

So, I like poker. And at the risk of sounding like one of those “I used to listen to them before they were on MTV” wonks we all knew in high school, I’ve liked poker for a very long time. I’ve been playing for about 10 years now, give or take. Which [...]

So, many of you know that I went to school in Davis. Coincidentally, the powers-that-be at Music Television, (affectionately know among young people as “MTV”) decided to film “Sorority Life” there during the Spring of 2002. Three or four marginally attractive Jewish girls later, and I had managed to finagle my way onto [...]

So, here it is! The first “real” version of jeremyabramson.com! Pretty exciting if you ask me. I just spent the last 2 hours getting that goddamned “now playing” zorch that you see to your right working. It’s lovely when the detailed instructions you get aren’t really detailed and are in French. [...]
