Survivor Corps, Jerry White, and I Will Not Be Broken

Every once in a while Abraham Harrison gets a great activist client. Clients like Jerry White and the gang at Survivor Corps really make it easy to be the World’s Best Boss, because my staff loves public affairs and non-profit work, that’s for sure — clients who do good works and work to change […]

I Was a High School Fan of That Awful Morrissey

Kris Meister and I are always up at the most obscene times of the day and night — he’s the only man on the planet who works longer hours than I. Well, this morning he introduced me to DaveBGimp. Funny stuff, especially his rant on how Morrissey doesn’t deserve to draw breath, I Want To […]

More Nostalgia About Hawaii Nei, My Hawaii

I bumped into Michelle Santos on Facebook yesterday and we Kama’ainas got super nostalgic all over each others’ Facebook Walls, and here are some excepts:
Michelle:
Aloha oe, Chris!! Pehea `oe? E pili mau na pomaika`i ia `oe!!!
Chris:
Aloha kakahiaka, Michelle. Mai ka’i no au. Aloha mai e!!
Michelle:

Le Show with Harry Shearer Blows My Mind

Every Monday at 10CET, NPR Worldwide plays Le Show with Harry Shearer (yeah, you know the guy). At first, I started grinding my teeth since one can tell he’s simply reading the paper to us, his audience, rife with “snarky” comments and cheap shots. I guess he’s supposed to be funny and Le Show is […]

Cook the Whale Eat the Whale

Well, I give up. So many people think I am an evil whale-killer that I will stop fighting. What do you think I am after you read Don’t Save the Whales? Should I be “harpooned and flayed alive?” Well, for those of you who think I kill whales, here are my favorite […]

My Last Birthday Supper, originally uploaded by Chris Abraham.
This is my lovely and wonderful birthday dinner — my last supper, as mid-30s. I am now, officially, a man […]

Whale-Qaeda

I wrote an article called Don’t Save the Whales and the results have been unanimously negative, hostile — even murderous. I call these 14-year-olds who consider me worthy of being harpooned, flayed, and killed, the Whale-Qaeda! Don’t you love that?

SXSW For Newbies by CC Chapman for mDialog

I love CC Chapman but man he’s one hell of a compelling promoter. Thing is with CC, he always gives way more than he takes.  Sure, this is a promotion for mDialog, but then again, it is a total value-add, too, offering super exclusives for the denizens of SXSW, which is itself the home of […]

Best Bar Trivia with Less Smoke and Fewer Drunks

I love trivia games. I also love pool and drinking beer. Well, these three vices came together in a perfect storm with Zack’s Bar. Sadly, Zack’s closed and I am now old. For me, in my late 30s, hanging out in bars is downright pathetic. And I hate the smoke, and those days are over. […]

I am “the only person in the world who hates whales!!”

I don’t know if orcas has actually read Don’t Save the Whales but I don’t think so because here’s the comment he or she left over at My Selfish Attitude to Life on Whales:
i cant believe u!! the only person in the world who hates whales!!whales r just like humans only bigger and they dont […]
