My Year That Was

I don’t think I’ve ever written something to sum up a year in my life before, and I feel like I kind of abandoned this blog a few months back. But now that it’s officially 2012, maybe I’ll start out by doing something new, and reviving something old, even though my eyes are the only [...]

Movie Review: The Hangover Part II

I think this one will be short. I’m a little late writing about it, so you probably already know all there is to know about this movie. In a nutshell, it’s the international version of the first one. Same premise–the gang loses someone because they can’t remember the night before and has to find him–same [...]

Movie Review: Thor

Of all the Avengers superheroes, Thor has always been the least appealing to me. I’m not sure what it is, but I just never got that excited about anything the character was involved in.

My Best Movies of 2010 List: Like You Needed Another One

For no reason at all, other than because I’m curious to see what I’ll write, I’d like to tell you the top ten films I saw in 2010. It’s tough because I saw a zillion movies last year. But I’ll do my best. Maybe because I saw so many, I’ll do ten that were actually [...]

Why I Missed Writing About This Week’s Episode of Mad Men, and an Interview with the Great John Gall.

I wanted to write a post about Sunday’s episode of Mad Men–how we saw the return of some great characters; how Don continues a lonely, downward spiral; how Bobby’s lines rival those of Roger Sterling–but due to some monumental computer problems and a day of travel, I fell behind. Now, I think it’s a little [...]

My Belly is Always Full, But Never With Cow

All I can think about lately is food. If you see the extra 10-15 pounds I walk around with, you might think that this is nothing new. But it’s how I’m thinking about food that is different now. No longer am I concerned with where I’m going to find my next meal or if it’s [...]
