Just missed Ira Glass and company as they arrived State College the week after I was there visiting my friend (grad student studying biofuels - mad scientist) back in early November 2009.
It’s amazing how much this episode syncs with my Penn State adventure. I don’t think I ever drank as much beer as I did that weekend. I also got to eat scrapple… an experience that no amount of...

The New Yorker's David Remnick on The Sopranos
Above is an issue of The New Yorker that came in early June 2007, around when “The Sopranos” was about to end. I remember when the issue came out, there was buzz about a piece inside that focused on the show. But I avoided reading it, wanting to wait until I had finished the show. Today, over four years later, I finally read it.
It’s embarrassing, really. I’d been stuck...

Twitter Follower Counts For Fox News GOP Primary...
While it’s hardly an exact science, I was wondering about Twitter and how it can be used to judge the clout of a political candidate. Since tonight’s debate in South Carolina will kick off the Republican presidential primary election, I decided to take a look at the five hopefuls that will be participating.

7 Things I Learned From My First Time at the...
Big thanks to the good people over at Moviefone for putting up this blog post of mine. Here’s an excerpt:
If you asked me a month or two ago where the Sundance Film Festival was held, I probably would have guessed somewhere in Colorado instead of where it’s actually held: Park City, Utah. Don’t get me wrong, I knew plenty about the festival and its pedigree. I just thought it...

Secrets of the Magus
I discovered Ricky Jay — unquestionably one of the coolest dudes on the planet — in the pages of the New Yorker in 1993. My mom was a subscriber and the magazine had arrived every week for as long as I could remember. I often tried to read it, but I remember each issue was a muddle of complicated words and prose in-between the only thing I could really grasp at that age, cat cartoons.
