Sam Champion Has Left the Building

Relax, Sam Champion isn’t dead. He hasn’t even been fired by ABC News for doing something scandalous. In fact, Sam Champion is better than ever, and I’m simply using his name for comedic effect (that and to generate traffic to Why Love NY from what I assume are the millions of people searching […]

What Exactly Is A Sporknote?

My friend (and fellow Cheese Bitch) Courtney Boddie is performing in the limited run engagement of Sporknotes brought to you by the fine folks at the Rising Sun Performance Company. So, what the hell is a Sporknote?
According to Rising Sun:
A team of highly unskilled non-academics perform improvised abridged versions of the great works […]

This Week in Dodgeball: The Final Countdown

Do-do doo doo
Do-do do-do-doo
Do-do doo doo
Do-do do-do-do-do-doo
Do-do-doo
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do
Do-DOO, doodle-doodle-DOO
It’s the final countdown!
Oh shit, is this thing on? Well folks, it’s the last week of dodgeball before the playoffs and the competition is fierce. Pepe’s Cheese Bitches went on a tear last week, winning five of their six games and moving into a three-way (all-right!) […]

Crazy Is As Crazy Does

If you haven’t realized it yet, I love crazy people. Crazies are a great source for hours of entertainment. So it is with great pleasure that I bring to you, Richard Martin the “Crazy Sign Guy”.
Now this isn’t “Crazy Sign Guy” like someone you’d find at Shea Stadium (god rest his soul). No, this 71 […]

Daniel Johnston Rocks the Party that Rocks the Body

Had the good fortune of catching Daniel Johnston’s performance at the Highline Ballroom last Thursday. Daniel was magical as always, kicking off the show with a solo rendition of “Mean Girls Give Pleasure”. The crowd sufficiently amused, the sorry entertainer dropped another relatively new track “There Is A Sense of Humour Way Beyond […]

Crocs Must Die, So Your Children Don’t

I detest Crocs (though I love me some Crocodile Dundee). Why an adult would choose to adorn their feet in brightly colored Nerf is beyond comprehension. Crocs may be the most comfortable “shoes” ever created, but if I have anything to say about it they will soon go the way of the dinosaur.
According to the […]

This Week in Dodgeball: No Time for Love, Doctor Jones

Don’t have a lot of time today, so I’ll keep this short. Pepe’s Cheese Bitches are facing off against Balls to the Wall tonight at 7:15pm with a second match versus Dos Locos at 8pm. Both teams are near the bottom of the standings, so hopefully the Bitches can move up from 5th […]

Gene Simmons Sex Tape Not Coming to Rock Band this Week

Check out his wheels, is it any wonder Gene Simmons is a hit with the ladies? An early casualty on the premiere season of The Celebrity Apprentice, with the recent revelation of this sex tape one has to wonder if he merely bowed out due to a scheduling conflict.
I should be sleeping, but thanks […]

Apple Hearts Linkin Park, Keep it Secret, Keep it Safe

AppleInsider reports that Linkin Park will be performing at a “secret” show in New York City and Apple is involved. The band is already scheduled to be in Manhattan for a performance at Madison Square Garden on Thursday, February 21st (sorry folks, it’s sold out). Perhaps the provider of New York City’s favorite […]

Frank’s Chop Shop: The Results Show

So if you recall, I needed a haircut last week. Abandoned by my previous hair cutter who moved to Ireland, I enlisted the help of google and searched for ‘best haircut nyc’. Subsequently I was led to Frank’s Chop Shop by way of New York Magazine’s Best of New York 2007 feature.
I proceeded […]
