Hump day's for humping.

Posted by Stevil on January 27, 2010


"Hey Stevil, that's a very clever title. Good call."
"Why thank you Stevil. You're very polite and marginally good looking."
"Thank you, so are you."
"Why, thank you."
"Let's party."

My hangover from Sunday just made it's way out of the room, so to celebrate, here is a picture of a cake;

Winter is as winter does.

Posted by Stevil on January 25, 2010


Maintaining a bicycle related weblog while physically unable to actually ride a bike is one thing, but being able to do it while buried under the cover of winter is something else entirely.

He had a dream.

Posted by Stevil on January 18, 2010


It's not often that I acknowledge mainstream holidays, as I prefer to celebrate more eclectic occasions such as the day D.B. Cooper highjacked an airplane, and with a suitcase full of money, jumped out into Oregon's night sky never to be seen again (Nov. 24th, 1971). Or the date that Smoky and The Bandit hit the theaters (May 27th, 1977). However I feel the need to tip a hat to Dr. Martin Luther King on his day and say "I think we could have totally partied together."

One for Sunday, because it's Sunday.

Due to allegations made by Pat Robertson that the earthquake in Haiti was due to a deal they made with the devil, the devil himself contacted Pat Robertson in a transmission that was recently published in the MPLS Star Tribune.

"Dear Pat Robertson,
I know that you know that all press is good press, so I appreciate the shout-out. And you make God look like a big mean bully who kicks people when they are down, so I'm all over that action.

But when you say that Haiti has made a pact with me, it is totally humiliating. I may be evil incarnate, but I'm no welcher. The way you put it, making a deal with me leaves folks desperate and impoverished.
Sure, in the afterlife, but when I strike bargains with people, they first get something here on earth -- glamour, beauty, talent, wealth, fame, glory, a golden fiddle. Those Haitians have nothing, and I mean nothing. And that was before the earthquake. Haven't you seen "Crossroads"? Or "Damn Yankees"?

If I had a thing going with Haiti, there'd be lots of banks, skyscrapers, SUVs, exclusive night clubs, Botox -- that kind of thing. An 80 percent poverty rate is so not my style. Nothing against it -- I'm just saying: Not how I roll.

You're doing great work, Pat, and I don't want to clip your wings -- just, come on, you're making me look bad. And not the good kind of bad. Keep blaming God. That's working. But leave me out of it, please. Or we may need to renegotiate your own contract.

Best,
Satan"

One for the weekend from Travis.

Everybody needs to clean house sometimes.

Posted by Stevil on January 15, 2010


Wednesday's post was fairly cathartic for me, as tidying up either around your physical home or your virtual home is never a bad thing. I would like to also add that if my inbox were a garage, with the exception of the fact that in the corner there is a blow up doll wearing a chicken bucket on her head, it would now look something like this;

I'm the worst employee I've ever had.

Posted by Stevil on January 13, 2010


I don't make the coffee on time, I'm fairly unorganized, not well kept, and I'm generally just crappy at multitasking.

Bold new adventures of the Commonwealth.

Posted by Stevil on January 7, 2010


Upon further reflection, I realized that Wednesday's contest was kind of a gimmie. It was like 'where's Waldo?' for blind people.

I'm a liar.

Posted by Stevil on January 6, 2010


At the conclusion of Monday's post I'd mentioned that I had incriminating photos of Ruth Buzzi. That was totally false, and I was so high on Spencer's love that I made the part up about the monkey and the fly friendship video too. Lucky for me though, I can rely on my ever increasingly mediocre photoshop skills to at least provide a near facsimile of the former;

The day the Earth stood still.

Posted by Stevil on January 4, 2010


It was as if a storm of designer clothing and extraordinarily expensive colognes blew into town on the day that I met with Spencer Canon, owner and director of the Ritte Van Vlaanderen bicycle company and race team.
Undeterred by his obvious economic status however, I introduced myself, shook his hand, opened up my note pad, scratched my lower back, licked the tip of my pencil, sat down, remembered I had my tape recorder in my pocket, stood up again, pulled it out, sat back down, put it on the table and hit record.
For the most part, the following is what transpired;

It's as good a way to kick 2010 off as any.

Posted by Stevil on January 1, 2010


Two points- Vocalist Matt Caughthran skanks, which is nearly unheard of in this day and age, so 10 points for that, and secondly, guitarist Joby Ford describes the band as 'five guys playing as hard as they can, for as long as they can, which is about 45 minutes before our drummer throws up", so they get 15 bonus points there.
Viva La Bronx.
