Tourist in my own Town: Laurel Springs, NJ, and Philadelphia, PA

I’ve tagged this post as “travel,” but in reality, nothing in it requires me to go very far from home! With the beautiful weather this week, I felt like going for a bike ride. Well, once I realized that my bike had a flat tire and that I didn’t have a pump, I decided on [...]

Bringing Sexy Back to New York state: Binghamton Senators trip

So, here’s what my brother and I did last night: We drove to Binghamton. We watched most of a hockey game. We drove home back home. Every year, RBK Hockey gives away a limited number of tickets for certain AHL (minor-league) hockey games on their website.  When my brother went to claim his this year, [...]

First Day of Spring!

So, although it feels more like it today, yesterday was the first day of spring, and that can only mean one thing here in the Delaware Vally… FREE WATER ICE AT RITA’S! People were ready for their first water ice of the season. I’m sure the lines started early, and they were still there when we [...]

Something big is coming!

Hi everyone. I just wanted to let you know that I have a big change coming to garybutterworth.com sometime soon.  (Possibly as soon as next week, but definitely less than a month from now). Keep checking back!

Zimbabwe-Ireland Cricket

Holy carp!| Did you see that match yesterday?! I mean, dang! I used to think that the most exciting play in sports was a last-second field goal in (American) footbal.  If it was good, you could have a win (or a tie, depending up on the circumstances; if it missed, you could have a loss (or [...]

The early bird gets the worm

I’m not exactly sure why, but the past few days, I’ve been getting up early, around 8am or so, staying up for an hour or so, then falling back asleep until ridiculously late.  (No, it’s not for cricket, but that’s not a bad bonus). I know I’ve pimped Slickdeals.net here before. This morning, there was a [...]

Are you ready for some cricket?! (UPDATED!)

I say, old chap, it’s time for the 2007 ICC Cricket World Cup! That’s right, when I wake up in a few hours, the opening match of the World Cup will be under way in Jamaica, and, as you can see above: I only own a toy cricket bat. I really do need a shave. I’ll [...]

Random questions

1. What are you wearing?: West Indies cricket jersey and DC United soccer shorts. (I like sports, but I’m not a stat-head or anything) 2. What did you do last night?: I went running. 3. Favorite Memory with significant other?: Just lounging around and being lazy and happy and at peace. 4. Last gift recieved?: [...]

Lazy Friday (drunk post!)

Netflix In high school, in my AP English Literature class, we had an amazing teacher.  To this day, when people from that class meet up, we debate whether he was the greatest genious in modern history, or a run-of-the-mill nut. I’m leaning towards the former, but I’m open to persuasion. Regardless, as we learned in [...]

:-(

Bad news. After a month of going back-and-forth with my old job about the possibility of working for them once a week in DC, I finally got a definitive “no.” On the bright side, they told me that they’d be willing to take me back part- or full-time.  So, hopefully that offer stays on the [...]
