Well hello there, Fun Vampire! My name is Murray, I’m 42 years young and I’m a happily married man to a demon who is ruining my life. I’ve been a fan of your blog for a long time! (though I must admit, the first time I tried to go here I accidentally typed “unfunvampires.com” […]

Happy May Day. Go out and celebrate the workers of the world (if you’re really into Propaghandi) or Walpurgisnacht (if you prefer Sabbath). Either way, drink a Maibock.
Think of Maibock as sort of the traditional German equivalent of malt liquor. It’s light in color and body, sweet and dangerously high in alcohol. Unlike malt liquor, […]

Every week, Young, Dumb and Full of Beer will highlight a different beer. Sometimes it will highlight a couple of beers. Usually they will be local, since Philly has some of the best breweries in the country, but sometimes I will throw in a beer from elsewhere. It will be nerdy, but hopefully approachable, even […]

I’ve admitted as much on here before but it bears repeating - I care more about gross ballpark food than I do about baseball. We were thrilled when Citizens Bank Park offered up some amazing vegetarian options last year. But when Hans FV went to a game to investigate, he was let down. Never one […]

Lawrence Dugan Sr. left Delaware County Court yesterday a free man, having already served the one-month sentence he received for nearly stabbing his heroin-addicted son to death…”I went nuts. I started hacking at him and screaming, ‘You ruined my life!’ ” Dugan told Daily News columnist Jill Porter when she visited him at the Delaware […]

Fellow gadget loving dorks, i present you with something i spent far too long making that still is not ready for public release. The Shortwave iphone theme. I’ve been wanting to make something like this for a while and i finally got to work on it. I’m going to gauge interest and possible do some […]

The title pretty much says it all. Not like anyone is surprised.

It’s kind of crazy - with technology enabling anyone with five minutes to kill and internet access the ability to find and download even the most obscure music - vinyl records seem to be seeing a bit of a resurgence. The coolest thing about this whole MP3 revolution is that I now have fast […]

HBO’s series The Wire really is the best show on television. The final episode of season four was absolutely heart breaking. I can’t wait for the last season to start. This week the New Yorker has a great profile on the producer, writer and creator of the show, David Simon.

This is part of a new series i’m going to do because i read, see, buy, and listen to a lot of shit every week / month but i’m too lazy and too distracted to sit and write something about each thing cohesively. Now i will give you only the info you need to […]

Princeton University’s WPRB is one of (if not THEE) best college radio stations in the entire country. Recently, the student senior board and the station’s Board of Trustees decided that a community-based solution centering on a membership drive was needed to strengthen the station’s future. YIKES!

It was just after 5 pm and the hype train had been running through my head all day. In less then an hour I would be at Microsoft’s New York offices playing halo3 with countless other gaming nerds. I had scored this rare and prized opportunity through a friend […]

I guess there is this new Phillyblog written by some people that used to write a column for Philebrity. The new jawn is called Ugh News or something like that. Maybe it is just called Ugh. I don’t know. In any case, they decided that it would be a good idea to write something […]

The last time we did this it was siiiiiiiick and this time it’s gonna be even more wildout. Here is your advanced warning on the Friday Night Fun Vampires Sure Shot Jumpoff!

Uber Rich idiot Nicole Richie spent a mere one friggin hour of a four day sentence in jail today for driving the fucking wrong way down a California freeway while stoned and whacked out of her puny mind. She could have killed someone but as we all know that means jack shit. Check out this […]

Pocket Shots has created the hard liquor lover’s equivelant to boxed wine. Weeeeeeeeeeeee!

Since things have slowed down here a bit, I figured there’s no better time than the present to get all livejournal/xanga up in this bitch. So recently this Fun Vampire has watching a British show called Totally Frank, on some channel that I think is named Family Room HD. The show is […]

So as we wrote last week, we here at the FV Fun Palace got our bloody hands on a couple copies of Bioshock a full week before release thanks to the screw ups at Toys R Us. I’ve been playing the crap out of this game and i’m going to tell you a bit about […]
