No More Wasted Nights

The following is an article I wrote for this great fitness site. Find the story on the site here. “No More Wasted Nights” at clarkbartram.com
The night before Labor Day, I was tired. I was unmotivated. My Sunday was fast becoming a wasted night. Funny thing was, I new exactly what could make it better.
Do you […]

Journey Into Raw Foods

Three and a half months flew by faster than I ever thought it could. When I first picked up Victoria Boutenko’s “12 Steps to Being Raw”, I had no idea what I was getting into. Nonetheless, a dynamic change has come over my life and I’m thankful for it everyday.

Cruising through town, I am amazed […]

Waring Professional Juice Extractor

I recently became the owner of a Waring Professional Juice Extractor. After living with the impression that a quality juicer was an unfeasible luxury, I was pleased to find that this one’s price was in the low seventies range. From the first time I used it, I was pleased with the simplicity of the machine. […]

XKCD Rules

XKCD presents “A-Minus-Minus”

If only I were crazy enough to do this…
E-bay used to seem like the most exciting thing online. We’ll isn’t it convenient that we have just been given a way to return it to it’s former glory!?! Mystery packages! How sweet would it be if you could buy something before ever knowing what […]

Anti-Flag: The Bright Lights of America

This album has honestly left me not knowing what to say. I got an advance copy of the record and started listening to it five or more times a day. It’s now been almost a week since it’s official release and I’ve yet to review the record like I wanted to. I thought that since […]

Broadway Calls - Karaoke It Off

Broadway Calls - Call It Off

I made this video a while ago while I was learning how to use some software for work. I dug it up today and decided to post it.
In case you didn’t know, Broadway Calls is probably one of the best bands in the world to sing along to. Making Broadway Calls […]

BigDog

If I saw this coming at me in the darkness of night (or even in broad daylight) I would be utterly terrified. If I didn’t know better I would say this was a demon machine sent from hell. This is the creepiest thing I’ve seen since the Pale Man in Pan’s Labyrinth. It looks as […]

Anti-Flag: Spit In The Face

I can’t contain myself. Literally. It is dangerous to do things like this at work. There is simply too much energy to be controlled. I’ve got that incredibly inspired, angry, empowered, and sad feeling; it only comes from music and it only comes in small amounts. You get a tingling all over your body […]

Yukon Ho!!!

This came out in 1989! I can’t believe I was only six! That seems baffling to me now. When was I ever that young? (I really think that there needs to be a separate punctuation symbol for rhetorical questions). I loved this book. Well, really it was more of a collection of comics, but when […]

Jake and Amir: Amir’s Birthday

This sketch is heartbreaking in the middle. I don’t know what else to say. This is one of those days when Jake and Amir are just too rad to even talk about. Sorry. Watch this and appreciate the music in it.
Amir’s Birthday
