IRON MAN 2
If you haven’t seen Iron Man 2 yet, I’m here to tell you- you’re missing an awesome flick. To be fair, let me begin with revealing I’m an Iron Man fanboy from way back. I still have my comics from 1980s. Tony Stark wasn’t my favorite hero, but I enjoyed the comics enough that when [...]
THOR’S DAY RANT: DOUBLE DONE DIRTY
Recently, I was all excited about the meatariffic chicken sandwich KFC was offering: the Double Down. Well, I finally got around to purchasing one, and I have to say it was a disappointing experience. First off, the KFC we went to has some kind of eastern European-designed entry/exit lanes. I had to drive past, turn [...]
THOR’S DAY RANT: Dress like a Ho, and You’ll Be Treated Like One!
I’m talking about “Booth Babes,” of course. Don’t know what a Booth Babe is? Well, companies around the country like to have expositions and conventions to convince retailers and consumers to purchase their products. These events are like flea markets–vast rooms with row after row of product booths. And like a flea market, companies need [...]
KILROY SAYS… Don’t Let Your Kids Watch the Watchmen!
EDITORIAL NOTE: This article contains graphic depictions which may not be suitable for all readers. View at your own risk. A few months ago, a great movie came out at the theaters. An ADULT movie: WATCHMEN. Now, when I say ADULT, I really do mean ADULT, since there are scenes depicting rape, sex, orgasms and [...]
THOR’S DAY RANT: Transformers 2…much!
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 — [...]
Kilroy Says: Don’t Forget Billy!
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. I know that Billy couldn’t sing. He never [...]
Kilroy Says: Liberals are hypocrites
Have you seen the recent news about Carrie Prejean? If not, she is the reigning Miss California and just finished first runner-up to Kristen Dalton, the recently crowned Miss U.S.A. Yes, Carrie is beautiful. Yes, she is smart. But, she is also a self-proclaiming advocate for traditional marriage. In fact, some may say that she [...]
I WANT THAT JOB!
When I was a kid, I wanted to grow up and become a super-villain or a commando. Then, when I did grow up, I wanted to be a writer or a minister. As life would have it, I am none of the above. I am a civil servant by day, and write for fun, not [...]
THE TRUTH ABOUT HDTV
TV holds a very dear place in my heart. Growing up, I saw more of my TV than my parents. When I was stationed overseas, none of my family wrote me letters, but TV was there for me. When I get home from work, and I’ve had a bad day, I can always plop down [...]
Year end reviews: The Incredible Hulk
Well, it’s that time of year again, when I dust off my keyboard and hand out the middle aged, caveman year end movie reviews for alleged blockbusters. This year’s manly movies should’ve been named Rear End Reviews due to just how disappointing the offerings were. In case you’re new to the caveman, manly movie year [...]
