Book Review: Farewell, the Greatest Spy Story of the Twentieth Century

March 9, 2012

I have no idea how this book ended up on my Wish List. When my wife gave me the list of books she bought for my Kindle for Christmas, I had to go look this one up. I’m not complaining, […]

Admitting My Shameful Secret

March 8, 2012 3

I admitted a deep, dark secret to some friends the other day. I felt much better afterwards, even though they gave me some grief for my transgression. While I feel good about taking this step with some people close to […]

MLS Needs to Keep Reserves in Reserve

February 29, 2012February 28, 2012 1

As is common with the American soccer fan, much attention this pre-season has shifted toward something completely ancillary to the success of the game in the United States. And I worry that unlike screams for single table to make the […]

In a Previously Recorded Ceremony …

February 28, 2012February 29, 2012

The Brians posted earlier, but we have some other awards to give out before the big show. Without further ado: Best Use of an Obscenity: The audience at my showing of We Bought a Zoo sure thought they had paid to see […]

Tenth Anniversary of The Brians

February 28, 2012February 28, 2012

Worries About Typecasting

February 21, 2012

Sometimes I deserve the reputation I get. I understand why people think I’m loud (I am), lazy (when it doesn’t inconvenience others too much) and obsessed with food and television. I feel happiest while eating on the couch while talking […]
