My little brother is anything but. Shopping for the Hulk.
I was chatting with my little brother the other day about what he would like for Christmas and what he planned on getting the rest of the family. My family is an interesting bunch. We’re all very close, but we’re … Continue reading
Veritas et Aequitas: Reenacting Boondock Saints via action figures while awaiting the sequel.
Sequels, much like follow-up albums, walk a very fine line of having the ability to enhance the original installment, or completely ruin the franchise all together. For instance, 28 Days later was great. The sequel, 28 Weeks Later? Eh, not … Continue reading
I'll admit it: I'm a little lonely. Time for that dog.
If I don’t pull the damn trigger on getting a dog soon, I fear it will never happen. I’ve bookmarked three Denver-area adoption sites and scan the pages everyday. The canine du jour is Bela (pictured). She’s been on the … Continue reading
My Condo: Where a Kid can be a Kid. Especially when I add Slot Car racing.
I got a call from my older brother last night. I haven’t talked to him in quite sometime as he’s been on holiday with his ladyfriend, touring the likes of Louisville, KY and Dayton, OH. As non-exciting as both those … Continue reading
What happens when you mistype Nooka on Amazon. Nookii – The Adult Board Game.
I want to say that when I accidentally typed in ‘Nooki’ when I meant to key ‘Nooka’ last night, I was flabbergasted at the search results. But I’m not going to. Why? Because I found Nookii through this accidental mishap … Continue reading
To be a kid again. Toys of Christmas and Breakfast for Dinner.
Remember being a kid and how exciting Christmas morning was? The space below the pine tree exploding with huge gift-wrapped boxes most likely containing toys with the exception of the few disappointing “lighter” boxes from Aunts and Uncles you knew … Continue reading
Defining "Full Circle" – The Gossip Girl board game.
Friday nights are usually spent at my place. Whether it be sipping bubbly and online shopping while Gossip Girl blares in the background or having a group over to partake in the once-cleverly-named-now-notsomuch act of Floorplay, a good time is … Continue reading

Kubrick is all over the place. Kiss? Check. Guns N' Roses? I'm hoping…
I was up at 2 AM last night unable to sleep and finding myself watching a marathon of Comedy Central roasts. That Pamela Anderson one is rather funny, save for the drunken antics of the now-irrelevant Courtney Love. Even I … Continue reading
Toys and Charity. Like Peanut Butter and Chocolate. Harmony via Automoblox.
It could be because I know someone with autism and oftentimes do research on the odd affliction. It could be because I scan the health news on the daily for hours on end. Or it could be because I love … Continue reading

Floorplay Madness: Brewopoly
So I gotta text from my friend last night expressing interest in another Floorplay night (board games and booze at my place). It got me thinking that, yes, indeed, it has been too long since I hosted the event. And … Continue reading
JOHN CONNOR KUBRICK & T-600 BE@RBRICK SET
I keep toys on my desk at work. A few Kid Robot smorkers and a Beantown Toys bean. And though I have yet to see the new Terminator flick, I think the John Connor & T-600 Bearbrick set ($50) would … Continue reading

Free Kid Robot Toy!
Seriously, there’s nothing better than getting something for free. Like the time I went out for thai and found a hair in my Basil Tofu and got the meal comped. Of course, I was so sickened by the experience that … Continue reading
Junko Mizuno for Kid Robot
If there’s one ability I wish I had, it would be artistic talent. I can’t draw. Painting? Awful. Even clay. I’m just bad at it. I don’t get it. And it’s not like what I make could be construed as … Continue reading
Kid Robot's Dunny Endangered!
In trying to get my condo clutter-free, I have been taking massive amounts of “stuff” to storage. So far, the place is looking clean, and the flow is amazing. The only danger I’ve run into thus far is finding out … Continue reading
