It’s getting a bit ridiculous. I have this wonderful website to post interesting things, yet I almost never post to it. This could be a nice diary for me, something to show my great grandchildren — but no, I fail to utilize this amazing tool. So here is a promise to my great grandchildren, I [...]
“The Last Recruit” LOST Confusion
I’m so confused I’m still not sure what to make of last night’s episode. Irony: (i·ro·ny) a manner of organizing a work so as to give full expression to contradictory or complementary impulses, attitudes, etc., esp. as a means of indicating detachment from a subject, theme, or emotion. Last night Sawyer led a mission off [...]
Record Store Day is my favorite day of the year!
Saturday is Record Store Day!! Every year independent record stores around the country come together to offer exclusive records in limited quantities to the masses. Get there early and bring money. It’s better than Christmas. Here are the Denver area record stores participating: Black & Read Cheapo Discs Independent Record & Video LPHound’s Vinyl House [...]
Roger Waters reconstructing The Wall
The Wall Tour Dates Announced I will be at the Pepsi Center in Denver on November 23, 2010. There’s not a chance I’m going to miss it. I am completely obsessed with collecting lossless audio copies of live concerts and bootlegs. In fact, in the very near future I will launch a website dedicated to [...]
Jacob: Where’s the Money Lebowski?
Back to LOST… I always knew that Jacob looked familiar, but could not quite figure out where I saw him before. A quick IMDB search produced lots of places, mostly TV shows. The actor who plays Jacob is named Mark Pellegrino. He’s also been in some featured films. Most notably, the Coen Brother’s Big Lebowski. [...]
Desmond is My Constant: A Quick LOST Observation
Hot damn! Fresh out of a Kwon episode we find out, once again, that Desmond is the constant. Desmond is blasted with electromagnetic energy and we learn he no longer flips back-and-forth through time and space — but sideways. I can’t believe this show is almost over. Happily Ever After was epic! Now we have [...]
“This is the most psychedelic thing I have ever seen.”
A couple weeks ago Priest and I scored front row tickets to see Raymond Douglas Davies at The Ogden Theatre in Denver. After the show, we were still in awe of the awesomeness we had just witnessed. In particular, the closing number Lola. It was just perfect. Somehow, at that moment, I was reminded of [...]
April Desktop: Vintage Fat Tire Bike Riding Love
I just went through another web design for scott stafford dot com. I get bored… More importantly, I wanted a different format to make quick, tumblr-like posts while still utilizing WordPress. I just don’t seem to have the patience or energy to write long, though-provoking posts. So, here we go. Let’s get all micro-blogged up [...]
New Belgium’s new IPA is hoppy, tasty, and at your local liquor store
Nothing makes me happier than trying a new Colorado brewed IPA. This one is extra special. This one is from New Belgium, Colorado’s finest craft brewery. I didn’t think it was in New Belgium’s DNA to make an IPA. But low-and-behold, as I walked into the liquor store tonight to purchase my favorite beer (Modus [...]
“Brother Sport” Animal Collective Video and Lyrics

Here is their latest video, Brother Sport: Lyrics: “Brother Sport” by Animal Collective Open up your, open up your Open up your throat And let the all [...]
