“If you blog it, it is no dream.”
Last year at this time, while I was embedded deep in yet another bout of nostalgia, I posted about an old school video game called Killer Shark (1972). I had been lamenting the fact that this game was inaccessible to me now, and how much I loved [...]
Sparked on by encouragement from the great Brad Efford, I decided to finally finish up part 2 of my impressionistic history of Skateboarding series which has been neglected for more than eight months now. If nothing else, I figure part 1 won’t be so lonely anymore and yet another abandoned blog draft will be set [...]
Given that Mike Caulfield has already provided an awesome way to start thinking about the DIY spirit of EDUPUNK, I’ll figured I’d do my part by shaving my head, busting out the sharpee, and sporting my WordPress hoodie (thank you, thank you Lloyd).

The idea behind this experiment was simple: create three commentaries upon the social/political sub-themes dealing with consumer culture embedded within Dawn of the Dead using [...]
In truth, if the bava could dance I think it would do the [[Tecktonik]], a new dance craze from France sweeping the world via YouTube. A few of the highlights of this cultural phenomenon, as I so vaguely understand it, are as follows:
First and foremost —and my personal favorite— is the requisite mohawk/[[mullet]] hairdo. [...]
I just found this series of photos on UMW DTLT’s flickr account, took me a bit longer than I would have liked, but well worth it nonetheless.
