The quick spoiler-free review: Carniv?le answered the criticisms of the first season by increasing the pace and getting on with the plot while maintaining the mystery and weirdness that made it an awesome show to begin with.

Last night was the exciting conclusion to Shoot and Let Die. It started with 117 players, but ended up with only 2: Mr Platinum (Waldorf) and Mr Ivory (Bride). Since Mr Platinum had more points, he won by decision. I was Mr Burlywood this game and did slightly better than I usually do. I made…

Last Saturday I played for about an hour over at marsRED Music and Movies in Haddonfield, NJ. It’s a great CD shop, but usually there are only a couple people there when I stop by, so I was really surprised to see tons of people show up. Granted, they were probably just out and around…

Wow, our friend Jason Zahn over at the GameShow found out today that his site was mentioned in the USA Today. Remember the old Match Game TV show? Try it for yourself here: Each weekday, a phrase is displayed with a missing word, and players must guess what missing word is most likely to be…

My first post about the Office was not enough. I just finished the final Christmas special of the Office and if you haven’t watched it you should go out and get it tomorrow. Buy, rent, steal it, whatever, just find it and watch it. It’s been out on DVD since 2003 and I wish someone…

Last Friday I stopped in to see Adrien and Birdie at the Tree House. The mood was laid back and the music was good, but what I liked best about it was the format. Adrien and Birdie took turns playing as a sort of folk-singing tag team. I’ve heard Adrien play dozens of times, but…

My current favorite Pitchfork reviewer is definitely Marc Hogan, the master of negative analogies. I raved about his review of Tegan and Sara’s So Jealous and his latest review of Louis XIV’s Illegal Tender contained this gem.This album has raunchy sleazy guitar solos, like on opener “Louis XIV”, which sounds like Noel Gallagher fucking AC/DC’s…

Last week I went to the open mic at Bamboo Bernies. Justin and Keith got me on fairly early, so that was nice. As soon as I played 99% I realized my voice was totally shot. I was fending off a cold at the time and singing probably didn’t help. After that I played All…
