I'm sorry for the lack of an excuse for a blog in quite some time. Things have been busy. But things are slowing down. I've cut out my side job and now only work 40 hours versus 55+. Less money, mo' t...

"Any of us get laid tonight it's because of Eric Bana in 'Munich'" (some "Knocked Up" spoilers)

"Knocked Up" lives up to its title. It's uncompromising in its observation (not exploitation) of all things "R Rated" in life and is a rough and tumble story. Writer and director Judd Apatow is more i...

"Spider-Man 3" (completely spoiled)

If you can point me toward a more frustrating entertainment than "Spider-Man 3" I will avoid it at all costs. I thought the first "Spider-Man" was boring--so boring that I fell asleep during a matinee...

Fun with my new phone

I guess going through two cellphones in over 4 years is a good ratio, at least compared to some people I know. Yeah, I haven't had a cellphone for very long (since I can be a surprising technophobe). ...
