Metacarpals in Disarray

April 1st, 2008 · No Comments

About 10 days ago I damaged my right hand. No bones were broken (save for a few chips) but I dislocated either two or three metacarpals. Depending on your belief system, relationship to me, thoughts on my character, and various and sundry other factors, you can choose to believe in one of the [...]

My follicles are tingling

January 29th, 2008 · 2 Comments

It’s that time of year again. For one solid month, men can hark back to the days of their ancestors when the weather wasn’t held at bay by doors and windows, when deer were more likely to be stalked and impaled on a handmade arrow than get run over in traffic, when the seas [...]

On women and their bad driving

January 25th, 2008 · 2 Comments

A headline like that begs a lengthy disclaimer. First off, I don’t hate women–I’m no misogynist. In the words of David Brent, “How can I hate women, my Mum’s one.” Stereotypes applied to a single person can lead to bad things. I’m not singling out any particular female I know, I’m [...]

Single-malt Glen Livet, Glen Garry perhaps…any Glen will do

December 23rd, 2007 · No Comments

I didn’t really understand what Mike McD was talking about when I first saw Swingers at age 18 (I pine for those salad days of yore). Back then, my taste in alcohol didn’t get much more sophisticated than the occasional Milwaukee’s Best (”don’t mess around with that Ice crap, Beast is the original and best”). [...]

November 29th, 2007 · 1 Comment

For some time now, a certain someone has been clamoring for a post or two that appeals more to the female readership of kirkham.com(.org) citing a few previous entries geared mainly toward males. To that end, I give you a scintillating photo I came across on eBay.

You’re welcome.

Fun with the Pitcam

November 28th, 2007 · No Comments

If you don’t already know, the kind folks at UNC Resnet installed a sweet webcam in Student Stores focused on the pit, a student gathering place nestled among Student Stores, Lenoir Dining Hall, the two libraries, and the Union. The Pitcam serves up a nice diversion and helps subdue the swells of nostalgia that [...]

Halloweenformation

October 22nd, 2007 · No Comments

If you’re like me then you’ve probably waited at least this long to start thinking in earnest about your Halloween costume. In these situations I find it’s sometimes best to anticipate what others will wear before deciding for yourself. This may look like a difficult proposition on the outset, but let me point out a [...]

Is you tweakin?!

October 10th, 2007 · No Comments

I thought R. Kelly had reached the apex of inanity with his Trapped in the Closet video series, but he has broken through the ceiling with his newest hit Real Talk. Many thanks to Clay for informing me of Mr. Kelly’s newest work. Words do it little justice, so…
