Eating hot dogs on Coney Island.
Today, on American McCarver: So Joey Chestnut has once again been crowned Repulsive Gorging Champion of the World, in a contest that fully 81% of ESPN viewers don’t even consider a sport. Let pass that there’s actually an organization called “Major League Eating.” Let pass the spectacle of men rhythmically stuffing their gullets with soaked hotdogs. Let pass, well,...

Toronto Summer Movies →
I made a Google Calendar with all the free outdoor movie screenings in Toronto this summer, and my friend Matti created a live-updating webpage with the calendar data. If you’re looking for a free outdoor movie screening in Toronto, check out TO Summer Movies. (And yes, I shamelessly stole the idea from NYC Summer Movies. Kudos to @matthewhowell for making that one.)

Your Feet
When I cannot look at your face  I look at your feet.  Your feet of arched bone,  your hard little feet.  I know that they support you,  and that your sweet weight  rises upon them.  Your waist and your breasts,  the doubled purple  of your nipples,  the sockets of your eyes  that have just flown away,  your wide fruit mouth,  your red tresses,  my little tower.  But I love your feet  only because...

Our Union
Our union is like this: You feel cold, so I reach for a blanket to cover our shivering feet. A hunger comes into your body, so I run to my garden and start digging potatoes. You asked for a few words of comfort and guidance, and I quickly kneel by your side offering you a whole book as a gift. You ache with loneliness one night so much you weep, and I say here is a rope, tie it around me, I...
