Strawberry Shortcut

It was our daughter’s birthday and she needed to bring something in for her class to celebrate.  We decided on organic strawberries because guess what? We are THOSE parents and these kids need some reprieve from the steady “it’s someone’s birthday” diet of Munchkins and cheese sticks. It’s her effin’ birthday and we’re riding the organic fruit train today, OK kids? Deal with it. I could tell my wife was stressed the night before, getting everything ready for the big day, so I offered to wash the strawberries. (I had heard somewhere that strawberries are like the dirtiest fruit around because of all the nooks and crannies, but until there’s a documentary about it, I need to go about my life as if nothing’s changed.) And I did—a nice, clean, good ol’ fashioned strawberry washin’. I was so caught up in my good husband-ing that I asked if I should cut the strawberries, too. My wife said not to, but I interpreted this as sympathy, like, “Awww, you don’t have to go that far—the washin

Subject: Attn: MOST IMPORTANT EMAIL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’ll be the judge of that! I once received an email about a freakin’ bomb blaster , so this is gonna have to be pretty dang important. From:   sematco@sematco.net Oh snap this IS important. Sematco is the emailer so nice, they named him twice.   Greetings,   Your urgent Partnership is required. The urgency of my impending partnership is best represented by the capitalization of Partnership, which according to AP Style Sematco, is a word that should definitely be capitalized sometimes.   I am aware that this is certainly an unconventional approach to starting a relationship What ? Pfft. Don’t be so hard on yourself, Sematco. This isn’t weird. Some of my best friends emailed me to inform me that my partnership was required. I mean, how do you think my wife woo’d me … with her physical beauty and caring soul? Nah—she cold emailed a playa, son. but I believe knowing each other starts from a step “

Goonies never say die, always say 'sh*t'

During a family trip to the Pacific Northwest, we went to the Oregon coast to see Haystack Rock. Located on Cannon Beach, Haystack Rock is the giant boulder from which the pirate ship emerges in the classic movie, The Goonies . It was a sight to see on its own, but I almost broke down in tears from nostalgia. I wanted to BE Sean Astin for about two years after seeing Goonies for the first time, and within that span I watched Goonies about 25 more times. As usual, the girls were unimpressed. For some reason, “Hey kids—look at that rock. It’s from a movie you’ve never seen” failed to wow them. This disappointment, combined with the heavy weight of nostalgia, formed a great decision inside of my brain: That’s it. We’re getting Goonies . The girls are watching Goonies . My wife was skeptical, mainly because the movie—she was a huge fan as well—was a little bit scary as a kid. I agreed, but argued that our oldest loves being scared —seriously, she is disappointed in movies that

Good Day, Consider my letter as a breakthrough and lets work to actualise it. This letter (not a letter) is a breakthrough in the same way that a picture of a unicorn is a breakthrough. The joke there is that a unicorn, like everything contained in this letter (not a letter) isn’t real. Nevertheless, yes—let’s work to actualize it. The unicorn, I mean. (draws picture of a unicorn)   (unicorn jumps off page, winks at me and flies away) There. Awesome. Are we done? I was just leafing through the profiles of some names in the Internet before I came through your Contact information.  Seems like a legit way to spend time and an equally legit result. HO HUM WHAT TO DO LET’S LEAF THROUGH SOME PROFILE NAMES ON THE INTERNET JUST GONNA TYPE IN WWW.PROFILENAMES.COM AND LEAF THROUGH MY COMPUTER LIKE PAPER THERE’S A NEAT NAME MAYBE HE WANTS TO EMBARK ON A CONFIDENTIAL BUSINESS VENTURE WITH ME I am Mr. Mrs. Stella Marine  This is you trying on names: Dr. Phd.
