Vikar’s Rant

I find Robitussin D with a twist of lemon Theraflu to be the choice of champions. One shot of that, equivalent to two teaspoons, after a piping hot mug of lemon Theraflu with a drop of honey can really make your fever enhanced halucinations really entertaining. I take this in an easy chair with my least favorite flannel pajamas and let the good times roll. It beats daytime television and you don’t even need a remote [...]

I live a stone’s throw from the Freehold Raceway Mall, Target, The Wiz, Bob’s Sports, CompUSA, and (my favorite) Barnes & Noble. Every year it’s the same thing. People forget how to drive for the entire month of December. All of those people are now driving near me. In the month of December, just getting in a car can be an adventure.

Vicodin and concentration don’t [...]

Picture this if you will. It’s 1990. A twenty-four year old new hire who defined “party” as something seen in the first ten minutes of the movie, Animal House, goes to his first office party. He is surrounded by coworkers, roughly his age and experience, including his roommate whom he’d gone to college with*. Mix with that a band of stuffy, old school, financial / technical managers. The place: Hot Rods Dance Club - downtown [...]
