It's almost that time of year again... that's right, Thanksgiving is just around the corner with the rest of the holiday season following hot on its heels. It's good to be back to regular posts just in time for the holidays. Food, family, friends, and drinks. So, last year I posted an awesome roast turkey recipe , and this year I wanted to post my mom's vegan pumpkin pie recipe, but I have no idea where it is. So here is one of my other favorite pie recipes (courtesy of my mother)... and some songs. Heck, [...]
With Thanksgiving now less than two weeks away, I figured it was about time to repost my tried and true recipe for brined and roasted turkey. So what if I ganked the original recipe from the amazing Alton Brown a few years ago. I've made enough delicious changes that it really feels like mine though. I'm still thinking about the possibility of cooking something else a little less traditional for Thanksgiving... something like a Bacon Explosion perhaps. (Yum!) And my mother's vegan pumpkin pie to balance it all out. Oh yeah! Here's the recipe: [...]
Seven years ago today I married my beautiful wife Amy on a sunny day in St. Marys, PA. Seems like we were just kids back then. Even though we were [Totally] in love, it's sometimes hard to believe that she went for it when I popped the [Question] considering I think it was a [Pretty Pathetic] attempt. Still, we had been a couple since 1998 and I hadn't actually been [Chasing Amy] for many years. Anyhow, on our wedding day, when I saw that [Punk Rock Girl] [...]
tumor circus - "swine flu" (download) boxleitner - "swineflu" (download) now for the "topical" post. two older gems relating to the most talked about thing this week. the first coming from tumor circus , a collaboration between jello biafra of the dead kennedys and steel pole bathtub . the second from the bay area's now-defunct boxleitner .
Magic Me Genre: Rock From: Oakland, California United States I know very little about Oakland's Magic Me. Their Myspace site is not particularly informative and doesn't include any pictures of the band and google is not much help either. [...]
Yes, this is a recipe for brined and roasted turkey with a musical accompaniment, but I'd rather call it Can You Eat the Turkey From the Southside? Seriously folks, Thanksgiving is less than two weeks away. So I've had deep-fried turkey (good), smoked turkey (even better), but my favorite way to cook a turkey for Thanksgiving (or even Christmas) is brined and roasted. Yes, I'll admit that I ganked the original recipe from the amazing Alton Brown a few years ago, but I've made some minor (and delicious) changes. Here's the recipe: [...]
Now for another band in a seemingly endless list of music that I'd like to explore more of but never get around to doing so. I only have a handful of Jim Yoshii Pile-Up songs, all of which I like. As a band, they fill in most of the tick boxes that I [...]
Nosaj Thing is the alter ego/production name of 22 year-old Jason Chung from Los Angeles, who creates some fascinating and relaxing electronic music. No pounding bass or glitchy blog-tricks here, just some old-fashioned modulating fun that wouldn't be out of place in a number of commercials and movie soundtracks I could think of off the top of my head. He was recommended to me by a DJ friend of mine and I listened to the tracks he sent over without really thinking about it, but once I got my hands on his HEALTH remix he [...]
N ot only is today Halloween, it is also my beautiful wife Amy's thirtieth (30th) birthday. That's a milestone that means, "Damn we are gettin' old!" At least I have a year to go. Anyhow, since I already had this post basically done prior to the death of my computer, all I have to do is hit the "publish" button and I'm done. Lucky me. Sometimes a little planning is a good thing. Anyhow, here are thirty songs for thirty years. All specifically for my wife and all with some [...]

Not being an expert mix maker, I spent a long time debating a theme for this one. Should I do one special for Ryan’s birthday? Tracks from 2006 I felt people might be missing and needed to hear? Or all tracks from albums I picked up at the Pitchfork Music Festival record fair? Well… I [...]
my humblest apologies for the unannounced hiatus. I've been busy doing other, less enjoyable things. As for the foreseeable future, it appears that I've had an enormous chunk of time freed up for the bloggin'. so hooray for that, i say without a trace of sarcasm. fo' real. welly well. how about a healthy serving of melancholy for a rainy afternoon?
