Let’s Sing the Game of Thrones Song
Welcome to Pirillo Vlog 394, where we sing the not safe for work (unless you’re a sailor or truck driver or some other irreverent son of toil) Game of Thrones song! Not that there’s anything wrong with copious use of the “f” word. Rather than indicating a lack of vocabulary, some have turned it into [...]
Being There Without Being There
Did you know that I save about 10 minutes a day by not shaving? That’s about a second less than the duration of a typical Pirillo Vlog! If only I could edit a vlog in 10 minutes. In Pirillo Vlog 393, I ponder what it takes to achieve a sense of accomplishment on a day [...]
The Lone Ranger
Not too many more days left of being a Lone Ranger when Diana is practically on the trail and homeward bound! Even though I confessed in Pirillo Vlog 392 that I’ve not yet seen an episode of Doctor Who, I know that my Doctor Who fan friends have been wondering how to pass the time [...]
Can Man Live on Bacon Alone?
In Pirillo Vlog 391, we ponder the ultimate question that gets asked whenever the house is filled with the scent of what I like to call “nature’s air freshener”: Can man live on bacon, alone? According to fellow bacon aficionado Heather Lauer in her book, Bacon: A Love Story, “Bacon is something that everybody is [...]
In a Bit of a Pickle
Is there anything more emasculating than not being able to open a jar with the power of your own bare hands? In Pirillo Vlog 390, we examine the increasing difficulty of opening modern containers in the 21st century. I think the machines have it in for us. They’re trying to make us feel inferior by [...]
Sushi is Scary and I Want My Edamame!
How do you introduce someone who’s never had it before to the wonderful world of sushi? Craighton Miller was brave enough to accompany me to dinner and give it a try, and it’s documented right here in Pirillo Vlog 389! Usually, if someone’s nervous about trying sushi because of all the horror stories that get [...]
How to Scare the Crap out of Yourself
I’m not going to tell you where it happens (though viewer comments may contain spoilers), but there’s a part of Pirillo Vlog 388 where I totally lose my cool. “But Chris,” you say, “when were you ever cool?” “You,” I say, brushing road dust off of my leather jacket after the usual morning motorcycle ride, [...]
I Mustache You a Question
Toot, toot! All aboard for Pirillo Vlog 387! Step away from the comment button, haters, or the mustache gets it! And by “it” I mean a whole bunch of Miracle-Gro. Like I’m just going to douse the sucker, cross my fingers, and grow it in nice and thick. I may even hire one of those [...]
Under the Weather and Overprotected
Pirillo Vlog 386 shows that pooches know a thing or two about public safety when Wicket and Pixie seek shelter beneath my desk during the latest thunderstorm. As much as I don’t mind water falling from the sky, if the sky’s a-rumblin’, I’m going to go a-tumblin’ right under that desk with my wise animal [...]
Geek is in My Blood
Welcome to Pirillo Vlog 385! America’s a melting pot, and if you’re from here (like me), then you probably have a few crossroads on the map that makes up your heritage. My last name indicates that I’ve got more than a puddle of Italian in my particular gene pool, and if you saw the video [...]
