How to Hate Apple Products
With the release of the iPad this week, Apple once again got it’s fair share of scorn. This time, it came from two fronts. One side mocked Apple for the horrible name it gave to it’s new, “revolutionary” product. The other side hated it outright and came up with every reason to do so. Like clockwork, we heard the same song and dance from the peanut gallery. It’s...
Thank god for cups...
The athletic kind, not the kind you fill…MAZEL TOV!
Played my first street hockey game today. I didn’t bring a helmet but I did wear a puck. Thankfully I had my priorities straight or else I wouldn’t have a shot on goal and I’d be in a lot of pain right now,..
Dealing with writer's block yet again...
Something creative should go here.
Conan Remains Classy

People of Earth:
In the last few days, I’ve been getting a lot of sympathy calls, and I want to start by making it clear that no one should waste a second feeling sorry for me. For 17 years, I’ve been getting paid to do what I love most and, in a world with real problems, I’ve been absurdly lucky. That said, I’ve been suddenly put in a very public predicament and my bosses are...

The Season 4 Dexter Finale
What a total mind fuck…
I’ve spent the night powering through the last couple episodes of Dexter. It’s currently 6:30am and I still have trouble breathing. My eyes are still a bit watery, my throat is dry, and even though the heater is on full blast, I can’t stop shivering. It is the most powerful reaction I’ve ever had to a moment on television and with the amount...
The Salsa Bar (3/5) on Yelp →
I work right next to a Poquito Mas and one day at work we were craving some Mexican food. However, we were feeling a bit adventurous and decided to take a trip down the street to The Salsa Bar. My…

I am Paul…and I didn’t even cheat!
According to this I am George…wish I were Paul though. I guess that means I don’t do much, but when I do, it’s always great?
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about taking chances, and how it’s really just...

Oh Christmas Lawn, Oh Christmas Lawn!
ablondewhirl:
A very special Christmas find in Sherman Oaks. We couldn’t help but participate.
It looks like Christmas went out for a night of drinking and threw up all over this person’s lawn.
Panini Cafe (4/5) on Yelp →
It’s new to the block, but it’s already one of the best places on this strip of Ventura Blvd in Sherman Oaks. Trying to find something good to eat on Ventura, my friends and I stumbled upon this…
What Does Your Favourite Indie Band Say About You?
clondon:
Vampire Weekend: Bros who try to make out with girls at concerts by relating to them via old Nickelodeon shows. “Remember Pete & Pete??”
The Shins: Premature alts who considered Garden State a life-altering viewing experience.
Arcade Fire: Frequent transcendental experience havers.
Radiohead: Everyone.

1 down, 3 to go...
The addiction is in full swing. Every so often a show comes my way that just manages to overwhelm my life. It suddenly becomes my purpose to watch every episode. Even if there isn’t time, I find time…usually by ignoring the all important life force that is sleeping. Shows that have achieved such status are 24, Lost, The West Wing, Six Feet Under, and Lost. This time, the show is...
The Flame Broiler (3/5) on Yelp →
The Flame Broiler is to Korean food as Panda Express is to Chinese food. I’ve said it once and I’ll say again, if you want fast Asian cuisine…go to a real Asian restaurant. That’s not to say that…

Me and Allan are looking at the Facebook of an old teacher we had in high school.
Allan: He looks skinnier.
Panda: Maybe it's cause he's dying?
Allan: Awful.

Conversation of the Day
The things we talk about at Pilgrim are very disturbing...
Panda: btw you might want to delete the stuff I did earlier on your zi8 (video camera).
Jim: Is it a sex tape?
Panda: Possibly.
Jim: A beta sp mounting a dvcam doesn't count.
Panda: That is quite disturbing. I am very disturbed by that image.
Jim: They would have to have analog sex.
Panda: Well no, not if it was the IMX. Then it could go over SDI.
Jim: LOL, threesome!
The Casting Office Bar & Grill (3/5) on Yelp →
For a change, someone in Hollywood is telling the truth. Their website claims that it’s, “a cozy dining and drinking experience,” and that’s exactly what The Casting Office is. It’s your typical bar…
