I still haven’t found what I’m looking for

October 31st, 2005 · 3 Comments

A few notes:

Is it weird that I’ve recieved roughly the same number of google hits for my name (”Jeremy Abramson”) as I have for supposedly gay quarterbacks from Purdue (”Kyle Orton homosexual”?)
Also, I think the one person who found my site searching for “Korrean whores” is going to be sorely disappointed.
I would like [...]

Week 8 NFL Picks

October 29th, 2005 · 1 Comment

This is the after-halloween hangover edition. Enjoy.
Jeremy and Jeffy’s Week #8 NFL Picks

Redskins at Giants (-2)

Jeremy: Eli Manning is god. Apparently, he’s some combination of Joe Montana, Brett Favre, Eric Clapton and Bill Paxton from Navy Seals. Or, you know, he’s a second year QB with some skills. Either way.
Still, I [...]

“Jim! Have you seen the like[ness]?!”

October 25th, 2005 · No Comments

Now, we all love Justine (especially if your name happens to be “Stern”). But I saw this picture, and it immediately made me go grab a CD I bought in, oh, 1995 or something.
I mean, tell me you don’t see the resemblence? I swear, if it was a billion little Justine’s running around [...]

And you thought Oliver Cromwell’s head on a stake was funny!

October 23rd, 2005 · 3 Comments

So we all know British people are a bit kooky, right? I mean, first off, at least like 93% of British males are named “Nigel”, which is just a little weird. Then there’s that whole “throw another shrimp on the barby” line that I never quite understand.
Okay, so maybe that’s Australian. [...]

Week 7 NFL Picks

October 22nd, 2005 · No Comments

So, I don’t want to get into it, but suffice it to say, I’m below .500 for the first time since my horrible 0-4 Week 2 performance. I’m not happy about it. But at least this site is getting some non-football related posts, right? Onto the picks:
Jeremy and Jeffy’s Week #7 NFL [...]

Because we all know I just wanna be Sam Greenspan

October 21st, 2005 · 3 Comments

So, my friend Sam has this thing….I was going to try and describe it, but I’m lazy, so we’ll just let him do it:

Amongst myself and my crew from college, there sprung up a phrasing that still remains used today. It’s the concept of telling someone: “You’re the best.”
“You’re the best” is generally to be [...]

“Rain Rain Go Away” or “Misplaced Romanticism”

October 20th, 2005 · 6 Comments

Let me get this out of the way, right off: I hate the rain.
Hate.
My senior year of high school, during the college application season, I remember getting a phone call from some cute sounding college coed. From Carnegie-Mellon. She wanted me to come to some “sleepover weekend” in Pittsburgh. They [...]

Geographical Differences

October 18th, 2005 · 4 Comments

So here’s the question…is it:
Two, four, six, eight, in, out, on, off, twisties, twisties, diamonds.
Or is it:
Two, four, six, eight, in, out, in, spread, in, on.
Now, besides the fact that the whole “spread” move makes me a little uncomfortable, where’s the degree of difficulty there? I mean those twisties’ll getcha. And I can’t [...]

What do you miss less?

October 18th, 2005 · No Comments

I was watching a rerun of Saturday Night Live, and guess who was on it?
No really…guess.
No, not him.
No, not him either. Give up?
Andrew W.K.
Which got me thinking: has the world ever missed anyone less than Andrew W.K.? Which got me further thinking about things I’d miss [...]

LC and Jason. I mean really….

October 17th, 2005 · 1 Comment

What can be said about this? What? This makes the whole “Jason and Kristin macking on each other at the MTV VMA’s” thing even better. And poor, poor Dieter. Don’t you think he wants to kill himself right now? So he’s totally into Jessica in season one (remember the “Jess, [...]
