What kind of number is this?

Dear 8613909238722, Thank you for dialing my cell phone number at 1:04am AST.

A new Venture (Bros. season)

That’s right. The mostly absent Jackson Publick updated his blog this week giving a few tantalizing details.

An Open Letter to the Kid Who Gave Me SARS

Dear Kid, Cover your effing mouth when you cough. Do not cough on people. It’s rude, disgusting and spreads your filthy little germs. Dear Kid’s Parents, Don’t bring your infected kid on a plane and then make him sit next to someone who hasn’t been exposed to your foreign germs. Try instilling some manners in [...]
