Profiled!

Help! I’ve been profiled!
This gentleman, asking passersby for spare change, looked at me walking past him on a Beverly Hills sidewalk the day before Rosh Hashanah and said “Hey man, start the New Year out right!” referring to me helping him in his quest for free money. Apparently, he just assumed that I… believed in [...]

Apology Accepted

It’s being reported that tomorrow, The Church of England will officially apologize for condemning the theories of Charles Darwin on his 200th birthday. They’re phrasing it as “misunderstanding” his theory of evolution, and the apology will be released on their website - so you know they really mean it!
Pictured above is one of several critics [...]

Wash Your Clothing Out With Soap

I didn’t blog about the rockstar who brought his son to my daughter’s preschool picnic wearing a baseball cap that said FUCK on it. And I’ve got pretty liberal standards when it comes to my own young’ns dropping S and F bombs. My wife and I usually laugh and figure that a) it’s only a [...]

Whole Foods On Twitter

Okay, so Whole Foods announced today that they’ve been racking up followers on Twitter. That’s a good start. More brands should, I think, if the intention is to participate in a real dialogue with their customers like Zappos has so successsfully.
But where Whole Foods gets it wrong, is by immediately starting an incentive program for [...]

Mystery solved! I live near and grew up in Hollywood, CA. So according to this article in the L.A. Times, it’s no wonder I don’t believe in god. Hell, I market movies for a living. I’m part of the “corrupting influence”..!
The larger point of the Pew survey - that 92% of all Americans part - [...]

Come On, Eileen

I checked. In the last year, my wife and I spent exactly $4,220.35 at Target. Diapers, etc. It adds up. What would you spend to keep us as customers? $100? $50?

Today, I tried to return a $24 lampshade (didn’t fit) to Target’s Burbank store. I had lost the receipt, but the return policy says you [...]

California 1, Pope Benny 0

Yesterday’s ruling made me proud to be a native Californian.
In other news, sore-looser Pope Benny comes out today and proves how antiquated the Catholic Church’s views are, totally disregarding human behavior in favor of meaningless dogma.

Just go away, Pope. You and your old-timey views are irrelevant.

Charlie Wilson’s What The…?

I had the opportunity to read the script before the film was released, and I was always a little shocked that more wasn’t made of the film’s impact (and the story’s legacy) when it reached theaters
I just finally watched Charlie Wilson’s War on DVD. Now I know why. THEY REMOVED ALL THE BALLS FROM THE [...]

WTF Is Wrong With People?

So I’m driving into work this morning, through glamorous downtown Beverly Hills, when I spot a well-heeled, middle-aged man in tan slacks and a green cashmere sweater PEEING AGAINST A WALL IN PLAIN SIGHT! I wasn’t quick enough with my iPhone to snap a photo, but here’s the view from Google Street View:

Thankfully, one of [...]
