The only time that people get together and express their feelings about a person is after that person has passed away. When that happens, people always sob about how they should’ve told the person sooner about how much they cared about them. Therefore, before I die, I’m going to tell myself how much I love me and what a freakin’ great guy I am.… read more “Eulogy of Joel”

Happy Birthday Jeremy!
Today is Jeremy’s birthday. He is turning 24.
Jeremy is the sweet fellow second from the left in the photo. And yes, he always dresses like that.
We attended Cascade together for high school, although he and I never really talked to each other much until immediately after we graduated. He also attended UW with me.… read more “Happy Birthday Jeremy!”
Arguing
I hate arguing with people when I feel frustrated, because I just end up pushing issues farther than I should and going in circles. I know I’m doing it, but it’s hard to stop myself. I need to make more of a conscious effort to be accepting and try to understand others’ perspectives better.
Justin Gross starts class at UW tomorrow
Tonight I went to UW and after working out with Fletch, I went and visited my little brother Justin. Tomorrow will be his first day of classes at UW. I’m hoping Justin has a very successful college experience, but he actually called me earlier thinking about skipping the first day of class and going to Canada lol.… read more “Justin Gross starts class at UW tomorrow”

Recent research conducted has shown that sitting in hot water for 30 or more minutes a week impairs sperm production and motility. This includes sitting in hot tubs or bath water. For non-smokers, if you avoid hot bathwater for six months, your sperm count will increase 500% (though not to previous unaltered levels). The bad news for smokers is that your sperm will not increase much again: smoking is a “gonadotoxic” behavior.… read more “Your bath is killing your babies”

Today at work, they fed us some very good champagne in celebration of receiving our Series B funding from venture capitalists. Muy bien.
Charles Shaw
Charles Shaw, how I love you.
When I am cold, you warm me.
When I am sad, you bring smiles to my face.
Charles, you are the only man who makes me happy,
You’re strong perfumes make me feel so sappy.
You are the only one who willingly goes in the box,
which I guard with big shotguns and locks.… read more “Charles Shaw”
The Boogeyman
Once there was a time, when I was a small boy, that I was afraid of the Boogeyman. When I walked through dark places, I could feel chill fingers crawling up my spine as he watched me. The Boogeyman was waiting and watching for me to slip up so he could pounce and take my soul.… read more “The Boogeyman”
Joshua Gross
Josh is my very fun and mature little 14 year old brother. He’s not so little anymore though- I attached a couple of pics of him below. He has now broken the 6′ barrier and soon will be bigger than Jordan and probably will be bigger than Justin by the time he’s 16. If he starts working out and eating a ton now, he will be a beast when he’s older.… read more “Joshua Gross”
