Brotherhood 2.0, where have I been?

I stumbled across Brotherhood 2.0 through the YouTubes this evening. The background is two brothers for 365 days will only communicate through online video. I’ve gone through about 8 of them - they’re all hilarious. One brother is a writer, the other an eco-geek web designer. Each video seems as one is trying to out due the other on who is geekier. I heart the geekiness. Yes, I just said (or typed) I heart the geekiness. I’ve selected two non-consecutive videos below.

I have a brother but I don’t think there is anyway that I could get him to do something like Brotherhood 2.0. First of all, he’s super quiet and I communicate more with his girlfriend (Lil G) because she has a cell phone and he doesn’t. David, you’re 22, you’re old enough to take responsibility and own a cancer causing device. But I must say he did give on hell of a best man speech. Spoken by my uncle after the speech, “Wow, I didn’t know David could speak!”

Who knows? Maybe one day. As for now, I’ll keep publishing my mumbling of words.

Turkey again?

What a wonderful Thanksgiving extended weekend. Wow, what a lot of turkey! It’s almost 12 am Sunday night and it’s the first real time that I’ve sat down at my computer and looked at emails. I really should be in bed, but I ate way too much at family dinner tonight with my parents, brother and his gf (Lil g) and my stomach is upset. I just couldn’t help myself after playing a game of Taboo this weekend and coming across the word Bosnia. The thought alone of that country can make anyone starve for days. But again, I should be in bed because the wife and I, still don’t know what to call her in gotshoo land - I guess I could call her by her real name? - honey?), are getting up around 5 am to head over to Fitclub to work off some StoveTop. I am dreading every second to waking up at 5.

In DIY news, I finally ran wire and put two new boxes for outlets and then ran cable and ethernet to the living room this weekend. It was a two day project but ranked pretty high after I rearranged the living room and notified all occupants that entertainment would be on strike in respect to the writer’s union. That and there was no cable or functioning outlets on that side of the room. I’ve got some non-interesting pictures, they’ll probably be posted as filler some time this week.

One final thing, one week after the wedding we were eating a high priced dinner right off the Chicago River. Two weeks after the wedding we were eating chicken nuggets and a salad in the basement. We’re back to being normal again.
