December 12, 2007In the wake of my last post, where among other things I stated I was “a nice guy you can take home to mom and dad,” Paris Hilton has made news by giving the following quote to the press:
“Right now I’m single, but I am looking for a nice boy,” Hilton told reporters in Berlin [...]16 -
December 10, 2007My insanely controversial last post aside, readers of my site (“SKOS” as the kids like to call it) know that good, clean, dry humor is my calling card. Unless you are Amish, in which case I’m telling on you because you shouldn’t be on the Internet, nothing I have ever written is likely to have [...]

December 6, 2007Someone recently e-mailed me saying my site was too “nice” to be a humor blog. Sir, that sounds like a challenge. Now you’ve asked for it!
Color me confused, but if Extra Virgin Olive Oil is as advertised how is there seemingly a never ending supply of the stuff? Granted, I’m no expert on the reproductive [...]10 -
December 3, 2007Over the weekend, my family got into a discussion about stupid team names in sports. “Who came up with the name Houston Texans,” someone asked. “Yeah, that’s like having a team named the Atlanta Georgians,” someone else responded (okay, it was me).
It was then that I theorized the name came about as a result of [...]19 -
November 30, 2007How were all of your mornings? Good? That’s wonderful. How was my morning? Glad you asked.
My morning was spent fighting ants.
I am still, as I’m writing this, fighting ants. An ant just crawled across my keyboard. Another just crawled on my hand.
“Kevin, please tell us more about your interesting and exciting ant problem,” you ask?
I’ll [...]16 -
November 28, 2007I have a list of “things.” Knowing useless pop culture trivia is one of my things. Being insanely bad with directions is one of my things. Being awesome is one of my things. The list goes on and on, and I think it’s about time I began documenting them.
One of the “things” I do that [...]7 -
November 26, 2007CC from The Life and Times of a Confused Twenty-Something tagged me over Thanksgiving for what could potentially be a very risque meme named Six Guilty Pleasures. Dedicated readers of SKOS (which should be all of you since my blog’s very addictive) will recognize CC as the inspiration behind my Dear Reader: A Three Hour [...]

November 21, 2007Banks are sneaky.
It’s become obvious to me that the management at my local bank reads my blog. Am I surprised? Well, no. My blog is awesome and incredibly funny – who wouldn’t want to read it? Still, I am a bit taken aback by the fact my bank is using information disclosed on my blog [...]4 -
November 19, 2007Over the weekend, Kathy from the very funny The Junk Drawer tagged me for a meme. What’s a meme? Beats me. I had to Google it. The trusted and always-accurate Wikipedia came through with a definition:
A meme comprises a theoretical unit of cultural information, the building block of cultural evolution or diffusion that propagates from [...]8 -
November 15, 2007“I think I can get another six or seven months (use) out of these two (pairs of blue jeans).” – me on 11/11/07
It turns out I was slightly off in my estimation of how long my jeans would last me. And by “slightly” I mean six or seven months.
My “good” pair, the pair with a [...]13 -
November 13, 2007Over the weekend, the topic of “Christmas presents” came up in conversation amongst members of my family. Eventually, my sister asked me what I was going to get her this year.
My sister knows that I am frugal and that I put lots of thought into gifts. She also knows that I like to get gifts [...]9 -
November 11, 2007I have noticed something that highly concerns me. When I was younger, I would play tackle football in my bluejeans. I would climb trees in my bluejeans. I would ride my bike around the neighborhood, occasionally falling down in the process, in my bluejeans. I did all of this, and my bluejeans would rarely – [...]

November 7, 20071. Writing about Daylight Savings Time…
….. comic gold.
2. Posts involving me hitting on Amish girls who may or may not be married…
….. big crowd pleaser.
3. Anything pertaining to coffee and my obsessing about coffee…
….. lots of blog comments.
4. Writing about baseball and spitting…
….. NO.2 -
November 6, 2007A funny blog I like to read recently wrote a post asking why baseball players and coaches are always spitting. It’s a fair question, but a difficult one to answer. It’s like asking why a rugby team stranded in the snowy Andes mountains after a plane crash would resort to cannabolism in order to survive.
It’s [...]3 -
November 5, 2007“Spring forward, fall back.” This little phrase is used as a reminder for when to change our clocks for Daylight Savings. Time is cursed at in the spring (when we lose an hour of sleep) and praised in the fall (when we gain an hour).
This past Saturday was one of those joyous occasions where we [...]15
I'm a cypher, wrapped in an enigma, smothered in secret sauce. Also, my name is Kev and I own this here website.
Alright, I'm just a guy (though an admittedly awesome one at that -- oh, and humble) who likes to blog. Sarcasm, quick wit and gorilla dust are my tools of the trade. Feel free to browse my blog and follow me. It's okay. I won't call the cops. Click here if you'd like to write a guest blog for SKOS.
