Bros. Dufala Video

20-Nov-08

Studioscopic: Steven Dufala and Billy Blaise Dufala from David S Kessler on Vimeo.
A while back, I contributed a few stills to the mini doc above. I met one of the brothers, Billy, when I was renting some space on Wood street in 2004. Who knew that art could be so consistently funny?

In Which Comcast’s Customer Retention Efforts Work Out

10-Oct-08

So a couple days ago,  I wrote about quitting Comcast for cable television.  And I got a comment from a Comcast CSR on the post the very next day.
As best as I can tell,  Comcast must utilize some kind of newsreader/alert system for when folks write about them or their service. (Which probably means someone [...]

I’m #1 with a Bullet

08-Oct-08

So, going thru my google analytics,  I was seeing all this traffic to this post I wrote almost 2 and a half years ago.  An uncanny amount.  Why?
Well, the content of the post was about a ride I did.  I included an image of a 9mm bullet that I found laying on the street.  If [...]

In Which I Consider, However Briefly, Switching to Short Bikes

25-Sep-08

Talk About the Weathermen

11-Sep-08

I needed a comedy bump today, so I went to the Hodgman piece from the Daily Show from a while back. Some guy at the local convenience store wearing a ‘Never Forget’ t-shirt sent my morning the wrong way.
Like I am ever going to forget.
So I needed some cheap laughs. The way John Hodgman [...]

Nockamixon Century Part III

25-Aug-08

This year marks the third year in a row I’ve done the Nockamixon Century.  I wrote about 2006 and I have Garmin data from 2007.  I’ve said of those two days that they were the single most difficult days of riding in those years.  This year I didn’t feel that bad, the whole way through.
Probably for [...]

Mitchell and Webb Tie into Infinite Jest

13-Aug-08

I don’t have the patience to type out the 3 page passage in David Foster Wallace’s Infinite Jest about Fond du Lac’s No Coat tongue scrapers. The short version is that the commercials made for this product(something to clean your tongue.) are so effective and so powerful that they destroy the entire television industry. [...]

The Story Ends With Me Putting Him in the Wall…

09-Jul-08

This commercial came up at work today. Apparently, engineering is planning a go-kart racing outing.
I’m so there.

Sausages!

This commercial is funny enough to make consider, albeit briefly, drinking the swill that is Bud light.
SAUSAGES!
