Corey Haim died, which was pretty sad. He was always my favorite of the two Coreys. In the fall of 1988, my mom took me and Robbie Haas to see “Who Framed Roger Rabbit” but for some reason it wasn’t playing so we ended up seeing “License to Drive” which would later serve as an […]

I was born to love you. I was born to lick your face

B: The movie Caddyshack has been playing on repeat in my dvd player for a few weeks now, and I’ve since adopted a sort of 80’s golfer clothing style… Why are you laughing? G: I thought you were starting to say you adopted a child. Sorry I wasn’t really paying attention to what you were […]

“That’ll be 8.02” (I hand the girl at the counter a $10 bill and she starts to count out 1.98 in change) “You’re not really going to give me 98 cents change are you?” Normally I pay for everything with my debit card, but at certain places I only pay cash because I don’t necessarily […]
The Virtues of Being a Number
By Brandon Adamson
People just don’t seem to understand the name Brandon. By that I mean they literally never can get it right when they hear it. Anytime I go anywhere or do anything where some stranger feels the need to ask me my name and I say “Brandon”….they always come back and mistake it for some other […]
