The weirdly specific search term of the day is: “how much does it cost to buy a rose online and have it delivered to your grandmother.” It would be amusing if the cost of flowers depended on the identity of the recipient. You could send a dozen roses to Mom for $29.99, but Grandma would…

Good Photographer, Bad Subject
I wasn’t going to share this photo of me and Fernando because I was upset that my face seems to be entirely comprised of giant cheeks alleviated by a dash of squinty eyes. Maybe the iHog and I are starting to look alike? But then I thought about how nice photographer Larry Fink was to…

I don’t like banana peels. I never noticed that I had particularly shiny hair but now that a bunch of…
Going to Hell?

Once you get in the door, you’ll meet the Blogger folks who decided that captchas needed to be totally illegible. I can barely read any of the captchas…
Living High on the iHog … in Latex

Then click here and here. After a busy Saturday spent sightseeing and hog-nogging with an Oscar nominee, Fernando and I were…

iHog Gets a Haircut (Vicariously)
Fernando came with me to see hairstylist-to-the-stars Keith Carpenter. Having a pig around made us silly. Voila! An even shaggier ‘do. Does it remind you of Shelly Duvall‘s? Just a bit? Keith kept telling me to stop laughing. Do these Versace pants match the lamp growing out of my head? We went to dinner at…
Park Avenue Is Pretty in the Springtime
