Travis DeSimone. Corsair. Year of the Dragon, baby. Everyone has probably made their resolutions already, maybe even defaulted on them at this point. Here in the west we celebrate the new year on the first of January. It is like a dessert holiday for Christmas. Every one makes a bunch of promises...
Travis DeSimone. Corsair. Some days waking up is very hard, I don’t want to interact with people even on a good day. Sometimes I want to indulge in the finer things in life, like $1.99 wine and about 32 smokes. A splash of water on the face is a shower, and brushing my teeth is...
Travis DeSimone. Corsair. This morning I woke up at a crude hour. Nearly seven AM and I had an impassable gap between then and ten thirty. With nothing to do and no way I could return to my sleeping, I did something I had planned on doing for a while. I got down to brass...
Travis DeSimone. Corsair. Over my winter break I found myself with a lot of spare time on my hands and with classes out I was feeling a bit purposeless. This on top of being so far from my family and friends had driven me to a bit of a low point. So I decided to...
Travis DeSimone. Corsair. Louis CK is a funny man. He gets paid to share his special form of bitter cynicism with the world. He has a hit show on FX, was a long time writer for Conan O’Brien, and directed and wrote the undervalued gem Pootie Tang. Love or hate the man’s comedic perspective, he...

Major Lazer is one of...

Travis DeSimone. Corsair. I don’t find myself at the movie theaters very often lately. Many people complain about the price but for me it is an entirely different issue. I see Hollywood pushing things on us like Adam Sandler’s latest exploitation known as Jack and Jill, or re branding something like The Smurfs and it makes me sick....
Raymond Knott. Corsair. The Hood Internet’s first official album is up via Mishka NYC, and I must say I am so eager to crack into this. These guys are two of my favorite mashup artists circling the blogosphere, and they’re always buzzworthy. Outside of that, these two have been here twice in the last year,...
by Raymond Knott Star Wars:The Old Republic Beta Impressions A New Hope? As a seasoned MMO player, I definitely didn’t know what to expect from Star Wars:The Old Republic. On the one hand, I’m a shameless fanboy for all things Bioware: Baldur’s Gate, Knights of the Old Republic, Mass Effect, Jade Empire; they pretty much...
