I love dramatic reenactment — skits, plays and, of course, movies. My love most likely stems from the creative side of me. You see, when I watch a movie, I always want to see, hear, feel and smell what the writer and director are trying to convey. And, I want to be “in” the story. [...]

Yeah, the Lakers won the first game of the NBA Finals. Whoopee! I wish I cared. I am so sick of hearing about the salaries of CEOs and government employees, but only a mild rumble about the profligate salaries of pro athletes. I know, I’ve already written on the subject. But, one thing I didn’t [...]

After North Korean leader, Kim Jong Il announced that he would continue his nuclear weapons program, and showed as much by launching nuclear test missiles, the U.N. got together and decided to impose a tried and true strategy to…you know, get K.J.I. in line. With the connivance of the United States, they imposed sanctions on [...]

Do you ever engage in a political conversation with your friends, family or even strangers? Do you ever wonder how in the hell they can actually believe the idiotic, “feel-good” rhetoric they spew? Well, I do, and I think these peoples’ brains aren’t fully functional. So, I think to myself, “maybe you just have greater [...]

As it so often seems to be the case, multiple celebrities have passed away this past week. But what is really unfortunate is that everyone seems to be concentrating on a moonwalking, face-lifted weirdo from Indiana, rather than a real American hero.
I’m talking about Billy Mays.

A long time user and avid fan of WordPress (WP), I have to say I love the WordPress community. I’m talking about a bunch of folks who work hard for free to bring you great themes like the one you see on this site every flipping day. They do it for the love (and little [...]

Hollywood has got some balls.
I know, because myself, and my children, spent two hours looking at them.
I’m not speaking metaphorically here. I’m talking about actual testes, in robot form, proudly displayed and talked about throughout the entire Transformers sequel. A sequel billed and advertised — for example with Happy Meals and toys — as a [...]

Lately, people sure have been bellyaching about Chairman Maobama’s many socialized intentions for their tax dollars. People don’t seem to want universal healthcare, or bank bailouts, or government nationalization of the auto industry.
But before we start tackling those big issues, I think we need to go back to the beginning and take some baby [...]

I’m a sucker for online contests. I enter them all the time. Despite the fact I never win anything. And every time I lose, even though I fully expected it, I get mad. Then I begin to wonder- was any prize really given out?
My obsession with drawings started back in the 1980s, when a local [...]

It started out as one of those really bad Mondays. The kind where you oversleep, the kids have some crisis, and you are out of sync the rest of the day. And it keeps getting worse. By dinner time, I was in a pretty foul mood. I decided to splurge and just get dinner out. [...]
