There is just no denying it: I really like American Idol.
I understand that’s not the coolest thing for a 24 year-old guy to say, but I stopped chasing after “cool” back when George H. was in office, so I’m ok with it.
I more than just like American Idol… I actually vote each week for my [...]
You know the ice-breaker questions that you’re inevitably asked in job interviews or when you find yourself in a new place with new people? Questions like, “If you were an animal, what kind would you be?” or “What’s your favorite ice cream?” or in more straight-forward crowds, “What are you passionate about?” We all know [...]

Click on the image to enlarge it and in-so-doing making the text readable (not legible). Read, comment, cast your vote, and know that there will be plenty more on this matter in the near [...]
Public transportation has provided me with a great number of pleasantries to date in Philly. In fact, it’d probably make my list of top three most enjoyable things about the city (provided the weather is cooperating) if such a list existed.

Well don’t worry, because the quality of content that odfm will offer at this new (and permanent) address will certainly continue being less than hip and far [...]
If in the next few weeks you happen upon a particular Philadelphia bus stop on a cold, rainy and spot a human wearing three shades of green with red hair growing out of the only opening in his outfit, don’t be scared, it’s just me. You should stop and say hi… and offer him a [...]
Yesterday I reached the one month mark of time spent in Philly. I had full intentions of posting this on the actual monthiversary, but I was having some issues with linksys 7, the internet gracious provided for me by my unassuming neighbors. It’s fairly unreliable, but I’m not paying for it, so I can’t complain. [...]
It was bound to happen. There was truly no way of avoiding it.

Especially considering how long [...]
