February 5, 2008Even though I have an office job, “meetings” do not dominate my schedule the way they probably do most office workers. In my two plus years in this work environment, I say I’ve had to endure being trapped in a meeting maybe only one hour a week on average. However, for the past two weeks [...]

January 24, 2008My affection for coffee has been discussed ad nauseum here on my blog. A quick search of the word “coffee” brings back 16 different blog posts. As a result, my #1 Dad coffee mug has received almost cult-like status. You crazy kids and your cults… A few moments ago, while sipping some French Vanilla coffee [...]

January 22, 2008Probably because it sounds so much like “recess,” the word “recession” doesn’t scare me. Whenever I hear someone say the word I begin daydreaming about being a kid again, climbing monkey bars on a playground and “accidentally” knocking the other kids down. Good times, good times. Of course, a few seconds – okay, minutes – [...]

January 18, 2008You know it’s been a long time since you’ve updated your blog when you have regular readers – some who are notorious for not updating their own blogs – leave you comments calling you out. It’s like having Keith Richards comment on your drug habit, Billy Joel comment on your bad driving, or Rosie O’Donnell [...]

January 1, 2008Dear Future Me, I am writing this on the heels of my/your 30th birthday. Admitting this age feels very odd and surreal. In my head, I’m still 18. The expression I’ve just now coined, “time really flies when you are incredibly awesome” is all too true. To freshen your memory, the purpose of this letter [...]

December 20, 2007“He’s trying to destroy my son. ALL of you are!” – parent of one of my former students I am not yet married. I have no children. For many, these facts render my point of view regarding anything to do with parenthood irrelevant and totally useless. That might be true. Of course, I think these [...]

December 18, 2007There’s an awful rumor making the rounds lately that needs to be taken behind a shed and whipped with a stick. I am not turning 30. It is scientifically impossible. Any claim to the contrary is a slap in the face to science and all things truly awesome. Facts are facts: I am too youthful [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]
