In a Different Vein…
You might remember the X-Files had a poster in the office that read “I Want to Believe”. Truth be told, often throughout the past couple of years that described my feelings on matters of faith. However, the ambivalence has not dampened my positive feelings about this holiday season. Truth be … Continue Reading In a Different Vein…
Merry Holiday, Silly.
I feel Like I have said this before. I recently got this e-mail that had a poem noting how under siege Christmas is. It included gems like this: Twas the month before Christmas, When all through our land. Not a Christian was praying, Nor taking a stand. See the PC … Continue Reading Merry Holiday, Silly.
I know This Is Who I Would Turn To…
For parenting advice. Okay, maybe that isn’t fair, but Lynn Spear’s kids have not actually been showing themselves to have been the best decision makers. So it is no surprise that Thomas Nelson (an religious book publisher) has shelved her parenting book indefinitely. I must admit, I got the impression … Continue Reading I know This Is Who I Would Turn To…
Holiday Joy
Okay…
This flick looks awesome!!! Seriously…I was unsure about Heath Ledger. Not anymore. He looks like he might become one of the iconic versions of the Joker.
I Am Starting to Think It Needs to Be Said.
Personal Experience does not make an opinion a Universal Truth. Seriously. And just because you associate something with negative experiences in your life does not mean that, in itself, that “something” is bad, wrong or evil. From marriage to the “Weight Wars”, we see a lot of people on both … Continue Reading I Am Starting to Think It Needs to Be Said.
Bulletwitch
So, I saw Best Buy had this game for $15 for the X-Box 360. I remembered seeing some promotional stuff that made it look like fun. I am not real concerned with plot in my games. Give me something where I am blowing away monsters or thugs (real world style … Continue Reading Bulletwitch
Stardust
I watched this last night. Any ideas why it was such a flop? It’s hardly a bad movie. Are people just “fantasied” out after Harry Potter and the Lord of the Rings? The reviews were actually quite favorable (Rotten Tomatoes considered 170 reviews-127 of which were positive), and I considered … Continue Reading Stardust
Oh Come On, Man….
Mark Penn is the front guy in the Clinton Campaign. He was on Hardball last night, and boy did he come across as a poor salesman. If he really thinks people are dumb enough to buy the idea that the Clinton campaign has been avoiding negative attacks-all while being attacked … Continue Reading Oh Come On, Man….
Stealth Campaigning
Apparently Alan Keyes is currently running for the Republican nomination. I guess he showed up at Morgan State Debate in the fall. And boy was he combative at the last debate. 2:50 p.m. | Keyes Alan Keyes is demonstrating why he has not been a welcome participant on the debate … Continue Reading Stealth Campaigning
Destroying The Videos…
No…this is not about MTV. No, I am talking about the CIA destroying tapes that contained water boarding. The reasoning given was to protect the identities (oh, that’s important now?) of the interrogators. I am skeptical of this and find it hard to believe that claim. Why? It’s not hard … Continue Reading Destroying The Videos…
Man Do I love To Drink…
And pretty much, the holidays are an excuse to do just that. Drink, guzzle, and just completely slam down tons and tons of liquid joy. Sure, I like to drink all year around. But there is something special about those holidays. Especially Christmas, where drinking to excess makes the holiday … Continue Reading Man Do I love To Drink…
Tis the Season…
Sorry for the glib subject title. But it seems like the past few years have had a spate of Christmas time shootings. Just last week a guy went and killed some people at a mall, and then on Sunday two different people shot and killed folks at a missionary training … Continue Reading Tis the Season…
One More Whatever…
So…it appears the editorial powers that be (Joe Quesada) have finally found the way to get Spidey single without killing Mary Jane or divorcing them. Afterall, Spidey divorced is even harder for readers to relate to than the wacky marriage thing is. Which makes sense. I mean, what modern teen … Continue Reading One More Whatever…
What…
The…Hell…I have no words.
