Dumb and Hummer
The other day I saw an actual Hummer downtown — the original, boxy Hummer. It looked very out of place in a city like Portland, but when he came to a stop sign right next to me, I could see a “Biodiesel” sticker prominently displayed on the side. A statement? Or just clever camouflage to [...]
The Curse of Faith
What I wouldn’t give to be able to speak my mind as eloquently yet bitingly sarcastically as this guy. Maybe I should get me one of those new-fangled British accents.

Sunburned for Change Part II
Mom to Me May 21 (1 day ago)

As weird as it sounds, a couple songs (Heart Songs and Everybody Get Dangerous) almost sound like Red Hot Chili Peppers. And Pat sings on a [...]
Job Confirmed
I got a call a couple days ago confirming that I’ve passed the background check for employment at Yahoo (the secret is eating the bodies). Back when I worked for CPU, I was making more money than I knew what to do with, and Yahoo is starting me at exactly double what I was making [...]
Whooops
I guess there was a little confusion among the volunteers with the local Hillary campaign about my attending Bill Clinton’s vote-for-my-wife event a while back. I just received a call asking for help this week because they’re a little short-staffed. They should be more vigilant in the future; I did NOT check the little box [...]

(11:15:52 PM) Bill: you remind me of the babe
(11:19:52 PM) Caleb: the babe with the power of voodoo?
(11:20:42 PM) Bill: holy shit
(11:20:51 PM) Bill: you totally jumped the gun
(11:16:14 PM) Bill: you remind me of the babe

(11:16:34 PM) Bill: the babe with the power

(11:17:32 PM) Bill: the power [...]
Who Gives a Fuck About Iron Man?
You do. Cuz I just got back from the movie and it was fucking radical.
