Bells, Wedding

nobody@vox.com(Dabysan) — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 16:18:10 -0500

The title of this post is the subject line of an e-mail that delinquent Voxer and all around good egg Jason P set me and CarrieNation to congratulate us on our impending nuptials (I'm glad I can stop struggling to spell that word after this weeken...

There are a few bands that always put me in a good mood. The Toy Dolls is (are?) one of them. Happy Punk-vember!

Korea is Weird - A Photo Diary

nobody@vox.com(Dabysan) — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 17:40:32 -0500

I'm a little salty at Korea right now, as I can think of nobody better to blame for the three hours of sleep I got last night, but all things considered, it was an interesting trip, and I'm glad I got to see it. Onto the pictures! My hotel, the...

Chickpeas and Lentils...Try it With Rice!

nobody@vox.com(Dabysan) — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 08:20:42 -0400

Koreans have a dish called Bi Bim Bap that is roughly as common as hamburgers are in the United States. Bi Bim Bap is basically a big mound of rice with a bunch of stuff piled on top of it. The good news for me is that in addition to being ubiquit...

The good news is that I can't watch football

nobody@vox.com(Dabysan) — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 05:55:20 -0400

I'm about to head out to dinner, and while I realize I have a little bit of time before Sunday is over, I figured I'd just post now and keep the quest for pie alive. Korea is still here and I haven't starved to death yet. I'm pretty pleased that ...

The interesting thing about international work trips is that you often end up in places that you would never think to visit on vacation. Sometimes this is awesome -- visiting Cairo was a landmark experience and one I probably wouldn't have thought...

Seoul Brother #1

nobody@vox.com(Dabysan) — Sun, 18 Oct 2009 22:53:46 -0400

My tour of the world's finest windowless conference facilities continues next week with a trip to Seoul, South Korea. These trips can be somewhat stressful -- especially for an aviophobic like yours truly -- I am quite grateful that my job provide...

Searching For a New Sport

nobody@vox.com(Dabysan) — Sun, 11 Oct 2009 19:04:02 -0400

I really need to quit football. My favorite team since childhood, the Washington Redskins is irretrievably terrible and getting worse, and my fantasy football team -- long a happy outlet in the long painful death march of the Redskins' season -- h...

Foolin With the Denim Dudes

nobody@vox.com(Dabysan) — Fri, 09 Oct 2009 11:15:57 -0400

One of the things I find remarkable about my childhood is how much overtly gay music I devoured as a young, oblivious metalhead. During Rocktober 2008, I discussed Accept and their opus "Balls to the Wall," paying particular attention to the track...
