After the successful merger of Receiving Me? and Facebook, and the resultant demand for what our beloved reader is referring to as “content”, RM? is looking to expand its operation outside the boundaries of what some call “my mom’s basement”. Fondamenta degli Ormesini columnist, Andrea Aguzzi, is currently scouting locations throughout the world. Although Venice tops the list of desirable … [continue]
Finally it has become a real issue. I can still get away with ordering a “large coffee” at Starbuck’s without desecrating the Italian language. I rarely abbreviate words in the five or six text messages I write a month. I’m not particularly interested in how smart you are for knowing exactly when it became cool to switch from only buying … [continue]
Christmas Heaven/Christmas Hell, EARTH - Every Christmas we either enjoy or suffer through the same holiday music. Even those of us who exclusively utilize radio for “talk programming” are incapable of escaping the vicious cycle. Shopping malls, elevators, and convenience stores everywhere pump in the merry noise from the last burp of Thanksgiving to the anti-climax of December 26th.

The Office @ Receiving Me? - The results are in, and Receiving Me? has named Alan Colmes 2008 Person Of The Year. Though Colmes faced stiff competition from President-Elect, Barack Obama, and that guy who won So You Think You Can Dance, Colmes’s last minute decision to leave Hannity and Colmes and Fox News, without even a token liberal, crushed … [continue]
Somewhere no one is looking, HERE - Extreme lack of readership calls for extremely truthful advertising. In an attempt to reverse the segregation of Receiving Me? from “people who use the internet”, someone important (who we should all pretend is not me) has initiated operation “Trust Us, This Is True”– an advertising campaign with the core mission of exploring the catastrophic ramifications … [continue]
A likely trio of illegal immigrants, liberal intelligentsia, and professional basketball players has joined forces to destroy America’s sporting traditions from within this free land. Their goal is nothing less than destroying the American ideal of manhood through importing the “world’s game” to our shores, and implanting it in the soul of the nation’s youth.
Sport is a method … [continue]
