Research Shows...


I have no idea how Max convinces people to fund his research. For example, his latest study found that people are happier on the weekends. Who would have thought?

Well, I guess that was slightly better than his previous study to find out how many people were below the median.

Wolf Man


We all know Anna loves astronomy. However, Max didn't really care about the Moon's perigee and apogee until I mentioned it was a "Wolf Moon" tonight. He was so excited after that he ran upstairs and put on his Three Wolf shirt.

O2


I am not sure what Anna said, but judging by Max's laughter induced hypoxia it must have been really funny.

Your Attention Please


Based on his doodling, I don't think Max was paying much attention to the State of the Union address this evening.

Tommyknockers


Just because Max commits random acts of mischief, that does not make him a Tommyknocker of Welsh and Cornish folklore.

The Wrong Door


The passenger that tried to open the door during Flight 223 is lucky they were diverted to Denver International Airport. Being the deputy director for the FBI's Denver Division, Anna conducted the initial interrogation. Of course she brought her chef interrogator, Max.

Well, let's just say Max has opened his fair share of wrong doors while looking for the bathroom. He wasn't likely to suspect terrorism.

The 9th Door


Anna wants to visit Mijas, the quiet little Spanish village that inspired The 9th Door in Denver.

Max would rather just read Michener's The Drifters.

Another Road Trip


Max is very excited about attending the Texas State Fair later this year. And no, it's not because of the barbecue or even the another chance to play Noah and the Whales in the car until Anna's ears bleed. It's really all about the deep-fried butter this year!

Blasphemous


I found Max wallowing in his Guinness at Quays Pub today. It looks like the National University of Ireland, Galway canceled his religious studies course. Apparently quoting Matthew 26:63-65 is technically illegal per the Irish Defamation Act of 2009.

Anna did warn him but when did you ever know Max to listen?

30 Minutes or Less


I knew Max was working on getting fresh pizza delivered to the International Space Station during his visit next month. I never thought about using a gas powered canon.

Gumby


Anna thinks we should all dress up as Pokey and Gumby next Halloween in honor of Art Clokey

Well, she did suggest Max dress up like one of the Blockheads.

This Is My Potato


Ever since Alvarez scored his big Hollywood contract, Max has been frantically filming his latest movie entitled This Is My Potato. And I have to hand it to him, he is getting rather creative these days. For example, his latest camera dolly IKEA hack would leave any grip nodding with approval.

Candy Mountain


Max thinks our road trip to IKEA is probably just as fun as a road trip to Candy Mountain. He's been looking for Liopleurodons everywhere! Of course, Anna is a little tired of his high pitched voice not to mention how he bounces to wake her up every morning.

Skeptic


Anna is a little skeptical of Japan's "scientific program" that kills 1200 whales a year. Of course, she is equally skeptical of Max's "scientific program" studying the long term effects of pot roast on mammalian digestive tracts.

All About Branding


Despite Electronic Arts' controversial stance, Anna announced at her Consumer Electronics Show (CES) keynote address today that our consumer products group, Maxwater Publishing, is dropping Tiger Woods. We're expecting a mix reaction when the markets open up on Monday.

Eat More Chicken


Just like the Fantastic Mr Fox, I don't think that previous chicken incident turned Max 100% vegetarian. Luckily A Wren's Nest Farm has a pretty secure chicken coop.

Spring Time


Do you know how Anna comforts herself when it's -4 degrees outside...

She wanders through the summer months on Epicurious' seasonal ingredients map dreaming about all the fresh strawberries, cherries, and peaches.

Max just soaks his feet in warm water.

Latin


And I thought Max was studying Cyrillic to apply for that new UN job. Turns out he is trying to "borrow" Internet domain names. Once again ICANN has underestimated him.

Let's Light This Firecracker


While Anna might have designed the fireworks display for The Burj Dubai's grand opening, Max was allowed to light them. Of course, he forgot to bring matches and had to borrow my butane torch. Luckily I remembered to bring it; Max likes his creme brulee extra crispy and we never assume the hotel restaurants will get it right.

Half the Price


By the way, Max only charges $20 dollars to delete all of your desktop icons. That saves you 50% compared to Best Buy's "optimization" program.

Anna Is Worried


Given Max's love of beef and his family's history of suicide, Anna wants him tested for hemochromatosis. Like Hemingway, she has noticed some mental deterioration and Max doesn't even live in Idaho.

Happy New Year


HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Well, unless you are Persian than we're little early for Nowruz.

Of course, if you are Mayan, then it's only 12.19.16.17.15.

And if you follow ISO standards like Anna, then it's just day 5 of of the 53rd week of 2009.

Regardless, Max still wishes you the best today!
