The Cheesecake is Rich

1) Watching the season premiere of Burn Notice. Michael Westen is so bad ass. 2) You know what I want to see (other than a picture of Miley Cyrus post head shave – it’s coming, I can feel it)? A movie with a May-December bromance. I’m thinking Abe Vigoda and Michael Cera in a remake [...]

Sing it with me! “This is my stop! Got to get off! I may go pop! Excuse me…excuse me! I’ve got to beee dirrrrect! If I’m wrong, please correct! You’re standing on my neck!” ~Splendora, “You’re Standing on My Neck” (Daria main theme song) (Why am I the only one singing??) Anyway, so in another [...]

Okay, fine, I’m 33 years old. I’m no longer clinging to the pretense of being 29. That said, I am deeeeeply offended that this week’s episode of Glee referred to U2′s song “One” as ‘classic rock.’ Seriously, guys, I was in high school when that song came out. Hell, I may have been in junior [...]

I guess it’s been awhile since I posted, huh? That said, my birthday weekend w/ Mom feels like it happened months ago. I think that part of why I haven’t written lately is that I am still upset that Kansas lost to Northern Iowa. I mean, Northern Iowa??? That game happened when Mom was in [...]

(or, Holy Hell, Academy – did you have to increase the Best Picture Nominees to 10?) So, the movie theater showed all 10 Best Picture nominees today and last Saturday. If you’re thinking that’s a lot of movies, you are absolutely correct. If you’re also thinking, “Just how long does that take?” the answer is [...]

What the FUCK was THAT? (Hey, look, a post NOT about W-2s or babies!)

Saw Leonard Cohen last night. The tickets were not particularly cheap and I bought them right after my paycut, but if I had to do it over again I totally would. Leonard is in his mid-70s. He is not a young man. And, well, I’ve tortured most of you with listening to my Leonard Cohen [...]

I am sure I am suffering from a brain tumor or something and am hallucinating. Did I just see a headline that Bret Michaels (the skeevy guy from Poison and the ode to syphilis that is “Rock of Love”*) not only attended the Tony awards but somehow managed to get himself injured while attending them? [...]

Maybe I’m just the biggest geek in Loser Town, but I am also VERY excited about this. I love, love, LOVE the original miniseries (both part 1 and part 2). Yea!

So, in my multiple year long quest to make it through the AFI Top 100, Gene and I are sitting here watching Lawrence of Arabia. I think the fact that I am writing this post tells you just how much attention I am paying to the movie. Seriously…I thought it was almost over and then [...]
