Mr Green (Cerulean) finished 2nd in Shoot the Moon and posted a recap of the game from his perspective. It’s a great insight into how this game works.I had a feeling I should have just not fired in the last round, but meh. The only disappointment I feel seeing the final results is that Rex…

Disclaimer: Yes, I understand I’m somewhat of a loser for like Survivor so much. Chris’s comeback to win Survivor: Vanuatu was unreal. The men were outnumbered 4 to 6 and the female alliances voted out Rory, Sarge, and Chad. Everyone thought Chris would be next but he hung in there and played a flawless game…

Matt Handel of the Dave B Trio posted his review posted of Sunday’s Pixies show. In short, he agreed with me on the Bennies, actually liked the Datsuns, and thinks the Pixies are overrated.The Bennies The Bennies played well. As I believe it was mentioned, I find it a little weird that the bassist is…

Fans of Phil Golub from the open mic should check out his band Xxoxia on Friday night at the Speakeasy Cafe in Upper Darby, PA. The show is 21+ and $5 to get in. I’ve written about Phil and his music numerous times here and he’s really talented and put these great, dissonant melodies into…

Ok, maybe I am not such a loser for liking Survivor so much.Being stranded on an island… has, … fallen aside as the game play between the 16 or 18 contestants has become the focus. That is not television for morons. While there is plenty of hot flesh to ogle and two adrenaline-spiking challenges to…

Think art is about inspiration? It’s about getting off your ass.

This is a great Fark photoshop contest. The theme is “Photoshop products being used in direct defiance of the manufacturer’s warning label.”

Round 3 just ended in Shoot the Moon. Distrust is in the air when the players can only agree on one guy to kill (Mr White). Mr Black also perished due to his own negligence.Mr White was killed. Mr Emerald said, “Oma Kora su baka na gaijin!” and then shot Mr White in the foot.…

The 2nd show was awesome, but which night was better? It’s hard to say. The set lists were rearranged and about 5 songs were switched. “Here Comes Your Man” and “Winterlong” were great, but the best addition on Sunday night was the double treatment of the Jesus and Mary Chain’s “Head On.” Kim Deal played…

Last night’s Pixies show at the Tweeter center was awesome. They crammed in so many songs from their 5 albums. Highlights of the night for me were “Isla De Encanta,” “Wave of Mutilation,” “Debaser,” and “Bone Machine.” They opened with “Velouria,” but didn’t play too much else from Bossanova. The set definitely favored songs from…

He was shot four times this round.Mr Purple was killed. Mr Crimson said, “Ever dance with the devil in the pale moonlight?” and then…

Ok, now that the game is pretty stable I might want to tweak the rules again. I need feedback from people who have played. I want to strike a balance between rewarding alliances and rewarding backstabbers. The fun of the game is outsmarting people, but it still feels a little too random. A game where…

I’ve always said this was about how long I wanted to live.”Life expectancy is increasing in the developed world. But Cambridge University geneticist Aubrey de Grey believes it will soon extend dramatically to 1,000…the first person to live to 1,000 might be 60 already:”

Round 1 of Shoot the Moon finished last night and 8 players bit the dust. Once again I was pleasantly surprised that only 1 out of 25 people forgot to make their move. I made it through the first round, despite the fact that I accidently revealed my identity in the game again. Why do…

I took this quiz four times and I really stunk it up. My scores were 50%, 50%, 30%, and 20%. All you have to do is identify 10 random countries around the world. The average score for US citizens is around 53%, so I definitely brought us down. Maybe you’ll do better.
