My Life

After moving out of Alpharetta 6 months ago, I have tenants moving into my house today! The days of paying rent + mortgage + (2 x utilities) is over! How should I celebrate? Zombie Strippers with this dude at the Landmark followed up by 20 rum & cokes a few drinks at the Highlander should [...]

This is something I’ve been waiting for for a very long time. Georgia State University is finally getting a football team and I couldn’t be more thrilled. Granted it will be a Div I-AA (Football Championship Subdivision) team but who cares? It’s football! I’m fairly big football fan now but that wasn’t the case until [...]

My Very Own Logo Originally uploaded by davidpbrown Fellow Atlanta Blogger and Natural Born Kicker team mate, freecone, felt I needed a personalized logo that really described who I am. This is the result. Could it be any more appropriate?

Every morning while getting ready for work, I listen to one of the mainstream 24 hour news channels. Inevitably, each day they are reporting on something in which find absolutely pointless and better placed on Real TV rather than a “legitimate” news channel. Today they were going on about their 50 minute continuous news coverage [...]

Last night was the Sound on Film show at Smiths Olde Bar. I received a few free passes from the band after catching the tail end of their act at The Masquerade a couple weeks ago. Wrote about it here. I had been wondering whether the show would be any good. I really liked what [...]

This picture depicts a moose, dripping in chocolate, with a caption of “Chocolate Mousse.” Now, for a little back story. My company is in a different building now than where we were when I started. This picture was one of many hanging in the office but it wasn’t exactly in a place where everyone could [...]

I went to the Masquerade this Saturday to show support for a good friend’s younger brother’s band, Skank Juice. It was their first on stage appearance and for a bunch of teenagers, they did fairly well. The lead singer, a female with a mullet and bangs (she’s groundbreaking), needs the most work… like remembering the [...]

After playing flag football the other day, I decided I needed to get out and do more shit like that. One of the neighbs suggested we join a kickball team. I suggested we start our own. After begging and pleading with people who for some reason or another voluntarily hang out with me (some call [...]

Last night I went to the Yelp meetup at Marlow’s Tavern in Midtown. I started Yelping before Yelp was technically “in Atlanta.” I haven’t reviewed anything really since then but after last night, I really have the urge to get back into it. There was a huge turnout and the people I met all seemed [...]

I was invited to play flag football with a coworker and some of his friends this past Saturday. To my surprise, I actually showed up. I’m glad I did. It was a lot of fun. I scored the first TD of the game, got my second later on, and had the most “tackles” (I’m good [...]
