My Crazy Vegas Neighbors: Vol. 3

Oh, the 4th of July. The 4th of July and I have set out on a dangerous tradition–last year, the police came to my door because my crazy neighbor had a gun, this year the police came to my door because my crazy neighbor crashed his car into the side of our townhouse.

Crazy Vegas Neighbors: Vol. 2

Here, just for you, is another edition of My Crazy Vegas Neighbors! I hope you enjoy it! I will try to create a new sketch of the insanity every week or so. Yes, it’s kind of a snarky thing to do. No, I’m not going to stop doing it!

My office window faces the street, so I’m pretty much the Aunt Petunia of this cul-de-sac. We have strange neighbors (please see post about the SWAT team evacuating me because of one of them), but really they’re more like characters.

I nearly died at Big Lots and then told Phil Helmuth he’s a douchebag.

Drinking Games Around the World

Drinking Games Around the World

Nothing brings people together like alcohol. When I studied abroad in Mendoza, Argentina years ago we taught the locals Beer Pong and built them their own Beer Bong. Every country has its traditions and that goes for drinking games as well. I polled friends from around the world and…
