Save an NBA Player – CALL 1-900-TOO-MUCH
Ok…I really am a capitalist and I think a person should be able to earn as much money as another person is willing to pay them with NO limits. Yes, there are a number of outrageous examples of young, skanky, starlets being paid $100k to show at a club and sit at the bar for an hour – not worth a cent to me – but oh well.
…and we’re covered by State Farm!!
Last year my friend George and I worked on a little side project for fun. We didn’t have much time and there was no budget. We made a commercial for a contest for Sprint’s release of the Samsung Epic.
Life: A Series of Natural Occurrences
Today is an anniversary.
On the day after Thanksgiving 2009, I got a phone call at 6:30 in the morning from my friend Scott Newport. Scott was sobbing but he was able to get out the words I’ll never forget. “Evan just died.”
Blackhawks 2010 Stanley Cup DVD
Some of my favorite memories while I was growing up were the times I spent with my dad while he worked in his art business. He had a small shop in the basement. He was a photographer. He could draw.

And while he worked he always had the radio on KMOX which – at the time – was the home of Cardinal Baseball and Blues Hockey broadcasts.
iPhone 4: Not A Flying Car
Line up fanboys! You’re really gonna want this! You’re gonna scream and pee your panties like you’re at a Justin Bieber concert. WWDC opened yesterday and all of Geekdom either attended in person or watched a live blog stream to find out the real story on the new iPhone – iPhone 4.
The EVO Has Landed
I am officially an iPhone defector. The HTC EVO 4G running Android is now living in my pocket.
A Clear Blue Sky
September 11, 2001. I got up and got ready to go to work at CBS Radio/St.Louis. A beautiful morning in the 70’s. There was a clear blue sky.
Flyby Photo
Just about everyone knows about the low-pass flyby of Air Force One over lower Manhattan that occurred the last week of April. Don’t know which side of the coin you fall on but I think it was amazingly insensitive and like all things the Fed is involved with, we will know the truth as they see fit.
Bixby
Yesterday morning, we said goodbye to Bixby.
