Today, who should come into my store...but John C. fucking Reilly! Oh yeah, you heard: John C. Reilly! For those of you not in the know, you may remember him as Reed Rothchild, Dirk Diggler's best friend in "Boogie Nights", or as Dale Murphy, the guy who says "This is gonna be hard on my little boy," in "The Perfect Storm", or as Officer Jim...

I...AM...FUCKING...BULLETPROOF
OK, lemme explain.
I think I created some sort of crime against nature, or perhaps angered the forest gods, for wood and paper products are after my very soul.
OK, maybe that needs even more explaining.
I work at a bookstore. No big deal. Anyhoo, I'm working in the backroom (where I have come to realize my place as the store's creepy guy who...

i would try to avoid feuding with nature, a hard head wont save you from a bolt of lightening... : )
Damn, I haven't updated this thing in ages. Not that anyone ever reads it or anything, but to catch up: I have returned to living in Boston and I am working at the most boring retail job I've ever had. It's definitely not the worst (the dollar store in Haverhill holds that honor) but the people are so tedious and boring, that it makes an...

So Saturday will mercifully be my last day at work. I then spend all of next week unemployed and packing my belongings, and then I move back to Boston.
Today was my last day working with Andrew. Andrew's this high school kid we hired for Christmas but has stayed on through (Next week, however, will be his last. Much like everyone else at the store,...

A little kid wanted to buy some candy at work today. No more than 4-years old, she looked up and over the counter with eyes fearful of a stranger in a way only a child could possess. (Or a heroin addict) The mother was handing me a dollar as she coached her daughter to hand me the candy bar to scan in....

Wow, one helluva day. I confronted my boss about $250 missing from our store's lock drawer today and it turned out he did it! He was late with a car payment and decided to "borrow" the $250 until payday.
I brought up to him that it was short and he said "Oh, uh, yeah. I took it out earlier to make change for the store...

Good things come to those who don't put up with bullshit...even reading this made me feel better....
Well, give me a congratulations: I finally gave my notice at work. Haha! Zing! Now I can move back into Boston next month (well, technically Malden, but whatever) and I get to go job hunting all over again. If anyone knows any good jobs in Boston involving a) Movies b)Comics or c)I don't know, like, receptionist at a tattoo parlor, please lemme know so I...

I'd have to say I prefer Li'l Debbie snack cakes over Hostess. Sure, Hostess cakes are good and all, but something never quite jived with me. It seemed like they were always trying to project this image of wholesomeness and quality and home-baked goodness.
But Debbie has no delusions of what she is. She is my sugar whore. She is to provide me with sweet...

I too prefer eating the goods of "sugar whores" with names rather than titles.
BTW, just saw the 25 anniversary edition of Jaws on DVD. That movie is awesome! Didn't seem the least bit dated. Special effects were great, video quality was great, story and dialogue were great, etc, etc. My favorite line is something to the effect of "Don't give me that self- righteous blue-collar bullshit!"

Yeah, that 25th anniversary transfer was beautiful. Not that I'm super-down with gore or anything, but any transfer that highlights the blood in the water during the Chrissy feeding is fine by me. Also, if the making-of documentary is a little too cookie-cutter for you, I recommend the E! True Hollywood Story on "Jaws". It's much less restrained.
Also, I can't recommend enough the E! True Hoolywood Story on Corey Haim. Bloody brilliant!

-Access to executive Death Star restroom

CONS:
