Thank You for Smoking: Great Movie (and Great Title Sequence)
I’ve been meaning to see it for a long time now, but finally got to watch Thank You for Smoking. I was more than surprised by this film, and found it totally enjoyable. The whole time I was watching this, it felt… clean. I’m not sure why that word came to mind, but it did….

Liz Works on Tables, Chairs for the Yard
I came home yesterday to find Liz out in back, on the ground floor of our apartment complex, working on a new project. She purchased a table and some chairs a while back for our yard, and was hard at work brushing off all the old paint and rust from the things. The plan is…
Mosquitoes: 45, Felix: 0
After my bachelor party this weekend, I came home to find I had been dinged by mosquitoes. I knew I had been bitten a few times, but more bites seemed to appear a day or two afterwards. Liz and I tried to count every bite, and we lost track somewhere around 45. I have 11…
Slim Jim Haikus
by Felix Jung Tasty dried meat snack.Randy “Macho Man” Savage,I love you. Oooh yeeeeah! ——— I made up this haiku shortly after learning from Kevin that there was an abundance of Slim Jims at Pandora… and that many a haiku had been written about them. Here’s his backstory: When I first started working on the…

More Updates Soon
I’ve been away for a few days, as my Bachelor party started on Friday evening and didn’t really end until about Sunday, mid-afternoon. I’ve got a lot of fun pictures and videos, but all I’ve done since I got back was sleep. So – small raincheck, until I get a bit more time to update…
Bachelor Party, Part 3: Jonathan’s Pancake House
We all woke slowly the next morning. I think Chris was up by around 8AM or so, and I ended up rolling out of bed circa 10AM. I had smoked a little bit, over the weekend. I figured it was my weekend to indulge, and I had maybe half a pack of cigarettes, over the…
Bachelor Party, Part 2: Indiana Dunes and Songs by the Campfire
Amazingly, I woke up pretty early today, all things considered. By the time 9AM rolled around, even though I had only gotten about 4 hours of sleep… I was awake. The sun was shining in through the living room windows, and next thing I knew Jim and I were up chatting. He was heading off…
Bachelor Party, Part 1: A Song 12 Years in the Making
My bachelor party is this weekend – and it’s a multi-day event, spanning from Friday to Sunday. Tonight, the first part was hanging out with friends at Justin’s apartment. I had a lot of people travel in from out of town (Wisconsin, New York, Oakland, and Indiana). Lots of old college friends, and many folks…
Repeating Ads Within the Tunnel at State/Jackson
On the way home today… I noticed that all the ads were replaced in the tunnel between the Blue and Red Lines, at Jackson. Not only that though, they were al replaced with the exact same advertisement. I imagine the goal of this was to saturate the area, and get the company’s message out. But…
A Normal Day: Video of Skillful Trick Shots
These are all pretty incredible looking stunts, and I’m tempted to believe they were all faked with special effects. But then I saw this “Fake Check” video and am convinced they’re all real. I’m definitely reminded of the old Ball and Stein game we used to play. [via MetaFilter] Related:A Unique Chance to Win the…
Honeymoon Question: Digital Photo Storage
Liz and I are planning to go overseas on our honeymoon – specifically, to Paris and then to Italy. We’ll be there for about two weeks, and in addition to planning for our wedding day… we’re working on all the stuff that one works on, when travelling to another country. Depending on the responses I…
Happy 1st Birthday, Audrey!
This past Sunday, a lot of folks gathered at Dan and Katie’s house, to help celebrate Audrey’s first birthday. Families from all over (from Darryl’s side of the family, as well as Tricia’s) got together to celebrate Audrey’s frist year. The birthday girl, and the center of attention. Digital cameras were everywhere! The initial taste…
