Metro Editor, answer me!

Tuesday, October 7th, 2008

My co-editor got a message today from some old guy who obviously didn’t know he was talking to an answering machine. The recording is below, but if you don’t have sound right now, here’s a recap. It picks up mid phrase, sounding like he says “in please,” but it’s really garbled. Then there’s a pause, [...]

Disney Princess Noodle Soup

Tuesday, September 23rd, 2008

Daughter goes to grocery store with wife. Daughter spots Campbell’s Disney Princesses Cool Shapes Pasta with Chicken in Chicken Broth. Daughter shrieks, “Girl, mama! Girl, mama, girl!” Wife puts can of Disney Princess soup in the cart. Daughter repeatedly intones “girl,” perhaps thinking the princesses themselves are within the can. Daughter and wife arrive home. [...]

Time again for search terms

Friday, September 12th, 2008

No news today, so I’m blogging instead of working.
I looked up the list of search terms that have lead people to Dyneuxmite, and as always, there’s some real good ones in there. At the top of the list is “lungfish,” which as you readers all know is a frequent and important topic here on Dyneuxmite. [...]

Wearing sunglasses indoors

Friday, September 12th, 2008

Dude wanders into work today wearing his sunglasses. Because these fluorescent lights are just blinding. And besides, outside the sun is practically unbearable with all those clouds covering the sky. Reminds me of this guy who used to wear sunglasses all through church. He had two pairs. One I think was supposed to be transitions [...]

Tra la la la la la

Thursday, September 11th, 2008

Tra la la la la laTwo little eyes that seeTwo little eyes the blink blink blink And many more things make me.
So goes the primary song. On the CD, it’s a couple of tracks after “If you’re happy and you know it,” which my daughter asks to listen to every time we get in the [...]

Just can’t do it.

Wednesday, September 10th, 2008

Here’s wisdom I live by:
“You can wolf down pizza, you can chug a coke, but you can’t do either to yogurt”
-Braden Molyneux
Allow me to explain. Actually, you have no choice, I WILL explain, please excuse my courtesy. I was on the way to school the other day, waiting for the bus. I pulled out my [...]

Overheard

Tuesday, September 9th, 2008

At work:
“The hardest part about roller-blading is telling your parents you’re gay.”

Skinny Logan

Friday, September 5th, 2008

I wrote another Skinny column. Not really very funny. But that’s what I’ve got — a bad case of the notfunnies.

Haiku time

$40 tomatoes

Monday, August 4th, 2008

What you may notice about these tomatoes is that they are small. Very small. No larger than grapes. Which would naturally cause you to wonder, “Why on earth would anybody pay more than one of those lousy quarters for those three grape-tomatoes?” We paid $40 for them. That includes the plant, the soil, other plants [...]

What inspires you?

Friday, August 1st, 2008

Getting me fed is a difficult task. But the wife does a great job at finding cheap lunch meals for work, so I do alright. The most recent set was Michelina’s. For those of you still reading, Michelina’s (at least the one’s I got) are little microwavable dinners meant to help you eat good portion [...]

A chance meeting

Monday, July 21st, 2008

So the other half of the Dyneuxmite crew is on vacation (not that he’s earned it) in Maui with his in-laws. Party at his place later, details to follow. He called me last night to tell me he went shopping at Costco. (Across the world and he visits Costco. BORING.) And as he was headed [...]

Name my next child

Thursday, July 17th, 2008

In case you missed the news, my wife is expecting a son around Thanksgiving. I give you the SSB-inspired naming matrix:
Ka/Bra/Xa/Da/JaTh/cho/li/st/shPo/bi/den/xy/er
Mix and match syllables (one from each line) to create the best baby names ever. Some early suggestions from co-workers and me:
XachobiDatherJachodenBralixy (My favorite so far. Music to my ears!)
Leave your suggested names in comments. [...]
