Thought It Was The Will Of The PEOPLE?
Nothing like a good scandal to jazz up an otherwise lackluster election cycle, right? Especially in the Democratic party. They do seem to be expert at finding ways to find candidates with, to be kind, issues. You think it all began and ended with dementia-addled octogenarians whose debating skills seemingly disappeared overnight? Nah, there have
Fattening The Mutton For Slaughter?
It’s been nearly four decades since I was fortunate enough to have visited my ancestral homeland of England yet I still regret falling for the tourist trap recommendations of local cuisine which the Fodor’s guides recommended I try. The fish and chips I sampled at a pub adjacent to Piccadilly Circus was no better in
Come Together. Right Now. Cuz One And One And One Is Three
Whenever anyone gets a glimpse at my phone the first reaction tends to be “Holy crap, how many freaking apps do you have??!”. Truth be told, for as much as I have learned how not to hoard physical possessions any more I still tend to hoard digital ones I’ve amassed over time. I could arguably
Time For These Minions To Pray A Little Harder?
In entertainment much as in life, more often than not timing is everything. Had the DESPICABLE ME-verse arisen a few years before it actually did at the outset of the 2010s I might been in a position to have the desire to go to a theatre on my own and watch what I otherwise dismissed
Just For Today, How About Adding A Little Red And White To Your Blue?
Happy semiquincentennial birthday, America, and to those who celebrate. That’s not exactly a word that flies off my fingers with ease, so with your permission I’m gonna make any references to it as SQC. Not that I intend to do so at many points beyond today’s musing anyhoo. But I will admit that I’m more
Everything Has Its Time. If Not Its Place.
This was supposed to be yet another slow day lament about something that was once was that didn’t quite last. In this particular case, today is the anniversary of my first wedding, one I don’t often reference since it was far shorter and ultimately less lethal than my second was–or at least could have been.
Legally Bland?
I may be older–er, seasoned–but I’m not dead. And I also have a few guilty pleasures that might surprise you. One just happens to LEGALLY BLONDE, a now 25-year-old movie that was a hit with pretty much every other demographic quadrant other than the one I actually fell into. It was a great date movie
WAY More Than Just A Pretty Face
Angel Lynn Boris has turned heads pretty much ever since she was born. One look at her makes it patently easy to see why. She’s unquestionably beautiful; she doesn’t need you nor I to tell her that. 30 years ago today she got one of the ultimate endorsements of that from way more discerning folk–a
Anyone Want To Buy A Slightly Used Peacock?
Holiday week, schmoliday week…we’re nearing the end of a fiscal year, so in hindsight it was not a surprise to see this breaking news flood our timelines early yesterday morning, led by the parochial spin from CNBC’s Elsa Ohlen and Lillian Rizzo: Comcast said Monday it plans to spin off its remaining media business into a
