I’m so cheesed-off right now. My employers are late with my commissions, about thirty-six bucks or more, which I was really counting on, and the waiting is driving up the fricken wall. Anyway, the third season finale of The Venture Brothers aired the other night; really terrific, and screw them for a cliff-hanger! New episodes [...]

You may recall that back in July, when I wrote about www.GreatAmericanSeafoodCookOff.com? Well, their site really didn’t have much on it at the time, but now it’s plumped up with recipes, seafood facts, and the winner of the cook off has been announced — Chef John Currence, the new King of American Seafood, for his [...]

Faith and I were gonna see The Dark Knight today (technically yesterday) but due to our neighborhood shops being utter dinguses, we couldn’t get our money in cash, and since the theater only takes cash, we ended up staying in. On the bright side, we were able to stay in, finally watch some of our [...]

So I’ve noticed that, whenever a new romantic movies comes out and people start turning their crappy dialog into catch phases in their everyday lives, the uninspired pick-up lines are some of the first to emerge. “You complete me,” “you make me want to be a better man,” and so many others that just sound [...]

Okay, I know this should have occurred to me before, but I didn’t realize there were helicopter accident attorneys. We’re just so unused to hearing about helicopters in our everyday lives, it’s not something I would’ve even thought about. Not until I visited HelicopterAccidentAttorney.com, an aviation law site with news and resources informing the public [...]

So, our DVD player as delivered was malfunctioning (would play CDs but not DVDs) and after a weekend of being on pins and needles, the seller offered to swap it out for another one! Wee! What an awesome-possum guy, right? Also, I’m going to be coming into a chunk of change sometime this week, so [...]

I Love Free Things, do You? For a while now, my sister and I have been taking advantage of free promotional sample products, from cereal, to DVDs, to air fresheners. You can get Freebies, Free Stuff and Free Samples from I Love Free Things. It’s a constantly updated directory of freebies; sample product give always [...]

So I hear from Faith that Shia’s back to work on Transformers, yay! I love that brillo-headed booger. I recently gave I, Robot a try because he was in it and it was actually really good, despite all the slow-mo, bullet time shots in the action set pieces. It’s getting so that any movie we [...]
