Wil Wheaton was this year’s keynote speaker at PAX ’07, the annual Penny Arcade fan festival. He does what he has come to do best. He reminisces about the glory of arcades, a foundational component to his (and my) generation. He’s 35 now. So am I. And he goes on to say how video games, …
While I’ve been amused from time to time, I’ve never yet moved completely into the camp that adores XKCD as something more than just a decent webcomic. Until today … Awesomeness achieved.

Thugs. Named Burt and Ernie. And an alien with blue skin. Put it all together and you’ve got a hell of a fight on your hands. Our blue friend is Mikaal Tomas, the late 70s incarnation of DC Comics’ Starman. Call him “The Disco Starman” if you want. With the medallion, the low-neck costume and …
Over a year ago, I posted a link on MetaFilter to Project Rooftop. It’s sort of like Project Runway, only for comic book superheroes. Basically, up-and-coming artists offer their takes on well-established icons … like Black Canary here. Cute, eh? The only bad thing about Project Rooftop is how infrequently it updates. Let’s talk about …
The first was good. The second is just as good, maybe better. I’m talking about “Zero Punctuation,” a weekly series of mashed-up videos by Yahtzee Croshaw. They’re hosted at The Escapist. What are they? Well, basically, Yahtzee (who is British and lives in Australia) picks a video game (recent or not so) and gives it …
My family and I spent yesterday afternoon atop Lookout Mountain, at Paynes Chapel Methodist Church. Nikki was there, of course. So was my brother. We’d ridden in the family car from Lane Funeral Home. The trip up the mountain would’ve taken maybe fifteen or so minutes on a usual day, but at processional speed, it …
The new Over The Rhine album is out today. The Trumpet Child. “Trouble” is track two. I’ve had it (legally!) since Saturday afternoon, but the weekend prevented me from listening and enjoying until today. I’ve loved this band for so long, maybe fifteen years by now, but I don’t think they’ve sounded ever so good …
