If only this were an iPhone app...

You may have already seen the link I posted on my Facebook page. But now you can take my voice wherever you take your computer (and wherever you have an Internet connection)!

Take a look here.

I have to say, I think I could've done a few of them better...

Good Ol' Chat Roulette

Remember that time we were all obsessed with chat roulette? If you don't, read this and you will.

This conversation has been saved in my Stickies since whenever it happened last year. Maybe I cared about it a little too much.

Interestingly, I already tried to post this once. That attempt was not just a failure, but a fiasco. I made this effort right after I joined the required blog for one of my classes, which happens to use this same exact blog website. And guess what. After I posted this funny little chat with that Brazilian dude, I was feeling all self-satisfied...until I went to see how my post turned out and the page for my FA 140 class popped up. Under an introduction from the teacher, and then my name, sat this little piece of incriminating, racist, grammatically incorrect blasphemy. This was extremely scary. Especially after meeting that teacher, I realized that posting this on her formal blog would have been waaay not cool with her. So scary. Fortunately I figured out how to get that the heck off of there. For a split minutes, though it did look very nice.

Here you are:

While we are chatting...a japanese is studying

While I procrastinate even more than I already have...

...OK, what happened? Does anyone even read this thing anymore?

Yes, I'll admit, I said I was gonna do this whole Game Show Challenge every week, blah blah blah, that failed hard on its face.

But this isn't. Yes, folks, I'm officially a published journalist. I interviewed former "Price is Right" announcer Rich Fields (cripes, again with the game shows, I know) about the circumstances surrounding his sudden departure.

Allow me to editorialize for a bit. I am pissed that Rich is gone. He and Drew had the kind of chemistry going that no improv comic can ever generate. You could tell it was just two friends bouncing jokes off each other, having a good time, giving away a shit ton of money in the process. (And I know, I was a beneficiary of $34,021 of that...) On top of that, some people say nice guys and Hollywood don't mix...not the case at all with Rich (and Drew too, for that matter). The mere fact that he granted me--me! A frakkin' college student!--that interview speaks to that.

So when I asked for someone to come with me to TPIR last November, and no one responded...believe me, you were missing out not just on me winning, but the impeccable personality of Rich Fields.

Now I'll get the hell off my soapbox. Shameless plug: watch me live on Platforum Mondays at 5:30, channel 8 on USC!
