One of my Christmas gifts was Balderdash, the self-proclaimed “Hilarious Bluffing Game” that you might remember from dozens of nights with Jasonand Brandon during our youth. While some of our classic definitions will be posted in the future, this journal entry will only detail the humorous contributions from our most recent Balderdash game. You see, [...]

Christmas
December 27, 2003
Christmas Day followed a similar pattern as previous Christmas’: wake up, open presents, listen to Nat King Cole while reflecting on how fortunate we are to receive such thoughtful gifts, fall asleep on living room floor, wake up to the sound of Marty watering the backyard patio in only his shorts and Reeboks, Marty yells [...]
Christmas Eve
December 25, 2003
Well, my 23rd Christmas is in the can, and yet it’s still unclear exactly when or why Pejman began slowly transitioning the holiday’s official name from “Christmas” to “Chrimmas” to “Krimmas” to “Krimmus” to “Grimmus” to “Grimmucide”. Perhaps it’s better we don’t know. I suppose as long as we remember the true meaning of Christmas [...]
Getting ready for the holidays!
December 14, 2003
I bring to you this journal entry after quite an eventful week in my life. I had initially intended to deliver a super interesting entry on Wednesday detailing several important purchases made by Joy and myself, but then I got stuck at work toward the end of the week. Not exactly my idea of a [...]
Judgment Day: A Tribute (as seen on Qball.org)
December 5, 2003
Pejman’s most recent entry in his Pej3 column pretty much summed up the annual Thanksgiving Judgement Day football game in Tempe. Enjoy! A Tribute to Judgment Day Thanksgiving is an age old American tradition. It’s a time for friends and family to unite and spend one day doing what Americans do best…..be lazy and eat [...]
Thanksgiving in Irvine
November 30, 2003
I’ve traditionally spent Thanksgiving at my mom’s house in Tempe, so there are a few things I’ve grown used to over the years. There was never any question that I would eat unquantifiable amounts of gravy and stuffing and that Josh would come over and eat on the order of hundreds of those little white [...]
My List o’ Thanks
November 26, 2003
I am thankful for turkey and inordinate amounts of stuffing and gravy. I am thankful for having a loving family and a really dumb dog. I am thankful for having Ashwini, Pejman, and Vivian in Los Angeles to share the graduate school experience. I am thankful for Pejman, his half of the payment for Direct [...]
Halloween Pictures Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions: Prologue
November 4, 2003
The picture below confirms a previous story of mine regarding a city bus smashing into Ashwini’s apartment, which if you’ll recall, was just about the most ridiculous thing I had ever seen in my entire life at that point. That is, until this afternoon, when I got myself involved in a live journal dialogue that [...]
Halloween Medical Style
November 2, 2003
Many of you are now familiar with the Brian/Josh Duel-Identity Syndrome (DIS) that from time to time transforms our happy-go-lucky Brian into the self-proclaimed “Evil Stanking King of Steel Town”. I am embarrassed to admit that I, too, am plagued by this terrible disease though to a much lesser degree than our dear Brian/Josh. Indeed, [...]
The Bunzo Reloaded
September 8, 2003
Pejman’s comment inspired me to add a few more items to the list: “My irregular heartbeat!” Brandon getting squashed by Justin McL every year in our Thanksgiving game. CompUSA stuff: Our boss Jeff Z despised me for no reason but loved Brandon unconditionally Steve Miller using the desktop boxes to practice his knife-throwing during regular [...]
