I closed my facebook account the other night. It was something that I’d been thinking about doing for a while, but I finally decided that it was time. Surprisingly, it had nothing to do with the controversial change to the terms of service, or with all the weird causes and groups I was invited to [...]
I may have mentioned that I’m looking for a job. I might not have, seeing as it’s pretty much the only thing I end up talking about in the real world. Gotta keep the two separated and all that. But for those of you who have not dived into the miasmic world of job searching [...]
Apologies to anyone who considers themselves a regular reader of this site. I’m probably not going to do an “I Hate Peter Travers” this weekend (an action that will surely send shockwaves across the very fabric of the internet), because this is going to be an absolutely insane weekend, beginning in just a few hours.

Just a quick handful of some minor/major events of the last week or so: Two more articles published in the Allston-Brighton TAB: “Obama Supporters celebrate Inauguration Day at the Kells in Allston,” and “Boston College plans head to Boston Redevelopment Authority despite neighbor’s protests.” It’s exciting stuff, trust me.

According to this press release from Square One Entertainment, a company owned by Vince, he is also a former Scientologist who sued the church [...]
This is one of those videos that I like to kick back and watch every year or so. I do the same thing with The Big Lebowksi, Clerks and Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (the movie and the book). There are some things that you just never get tired of seeing, and John Turturro [...]
I took this picture about a month ago, when we got the first big snowstorm, and I think it pretty much sums up winter in Allston, Massachusetts. Hipsters start wrapping chains around the tires of their fixed gears, the snow gradually takes on the ashen pallor of the apocalypse and there are Ugg prints everywhere. [...]
Seitzwrites.com wasn’t my first choice for a web domain, but it was the best option available. I think it’s tolerably bad though. I mean, it’s not very clever, but it does sum up what the site is about. My name is Seitz. I write. That’s why it’s styled with two periods at the top of [...]
