The Dog Vote

by Todd Nash November 6, 2012

This morning before I left for the polls I had to see who my man, Bailey, liked for the presidency. His friend the “Possum” is representing Obama and his friend “Ellie the Elephant” appropriately is representing Mitt Romney. I in no way guided him with treats towards one candidate or the other. He makes the […]

by Katy McCaffrey November 4, 2012

Last week a little girl named Abigael Evans became a YouTube sensation and the voice of the people simultaneously when, bleary eyed and clearly at her whit’s end, she sobbed into her mother’s video camera that she was “tired of Bronco Bama [sic] and Mitt Romney.”

The Reluctant DILF

by Christopher T. Wood October 30, 2012

MONOLOGIST CHRISTOPHER WOOD DISCUSSES LIFE AS A DILF I get it.  It’s LA.  Women have gotten so much unwanted attention from passing romantic road warriors chuck full of piss and vinegar for the approximately 2.37 seconds it takes them to amble past her, women have mastered the art of the “casual ignore”.  That time tested […]

A Brief History of the Mustache in Cinema

by Daedalus Howell October 29, 2012

Sad to report that our documentary film, A Brief History of the Mustache in Cinema, has been shaved from the development slate of upstart cabler The Hair Channel. Collaborator Cary Carpe and I had been tapped to track the mustache through cinema for the new channel (a sort of E! for all things follicular) after […]
