Headlines You Never Want To See

Posted by HP on February 15, 2010

After being exposed to the news for so many years, you become pretty indifferent to the sensational headlines in the news. It because so blasé. Yup, another murder. Oh a 100 car pile up, big deal? What’s this? A child was carried away in a balloon and is lost now? Huh, it was a hoax, how pedestrian.

Maybe we should take a look over at some headlines over on Earth-2. I bet we might find a few headlines we would never want to see over here.

The 4th Annual Speedbowl & Pink Sock Awards

Posted by ZSN on January 1, 2010

2009 has come to an end! An entire decade is over! It’s been an interesting one to say the least! In the last decade alone, we have managed to graduate from high school, complete college, get a real jobs, and date several women (some crazy, some not)! However, tonight isn’t about the last decade, it’s [...]

Surviving This Economy (or How to Spend Without Regard)

Posted by HP on November 18, 2009

Despite being Mr. Big-Shot-Still-Has-A-Job, I just can’t seem to save up any money! It’s like I live over an ancient Native American burial ground and it’s causing money to disappear like sand slips through your fingers. It is not for lack of trying! Basically, my point is, I ain’t got no money. The economy is tough and I know a lot of you guys are in similar situations or are art majors or are in a band, so you don’t have money either. For the good of both myself and you, the loyal and sexy readers, I’m going to present a few tips on how to Survive This Economy.

Bustin’ Makes Me Feel Good

Posted by HP on October 21, 2009

In 1984 the world welcomed two major additions to American comedy. The first would obviously be my birth, which occurred one cool Spring evening. A few months later the world was introduced to Ivan Reitman’s masterpiece, Ghostbusters. This year of our Lord and Savior Jesus Cristo 2009 finds itself to be the 25th Anniversaries of both such occasions. Unlike many, many, many of the posts before this I am not here to write about myself – I am here to discuss the joy of Ghostbusters.

ZSN: Beyond the Sociodome

Today is Wednesday, September 23. On Saturday, August 29 – nearly one month ago – HP and I moved. We left the Sociodome de Brighton behind with a fond wave and headed on to our next adventurous abode, the Sociodom3. If you’ve been following us from the beginning, then you’ll know that things have progressed [...]

Knee Jerker

Posted by HP on September 9, 2009

At the end of July I had traveled across the country to the little city of Bellingham, Washington. It’s about an hour and a half north of Seattle, populated by all sorts of folk, one of which being my bearded friend, Ethan. Ethan had moved out West about 10 months prior and this trip was to act as a reunion for a group of my college friends. We call ourselves, with tongue-in-cheek and a brief chuckle, the Mighty 4. It was a name I made up while trying to add drama and panache to a story I posted on ZSN some time ago. With Travis, Ethan, and Chad by my side, I was guaranteed to get into trouble of all kinds.

That Damn Fishtank

Posted by HP on September 2, 2009

By the time you read this, Tom and I will have moved. That is right; our home base, lovingly dubbed The SocioDome, has changed locations! We have relocated from the city of Brighton to the far away land of… Brighton, but across the street. Alright, it’s not a major move, but it is a major [...]

Shipping Up to Boston

Posted by Tom on July 29, 2009

I recently went on vacation on the West Coast. I documented my flight out there in a previous post. Below is my return, where I’m running on two hours of sleep and a “ham” and “cheese” “sandwich” from a stand in the airport. 9:10 am PST – We’re back in the air again, heading back [...]
