Each Tuesday evening, you’re invited to join me as I attempt to rediscover what made me love this show 21 years ago. New Moon Rising Oz is back! This probably won't end well for Oz... We open on Willow … Continue reading Rewatching Buffy – Episode 75
My Favorite Movies #87 – The Greatest Showman
The Greatest Showman 2017 Directed by Michael Gracey Netflix says... Behind "The Greatest Show on Earth" was one of history's greatest showmen, P.T. Barnum. This musical biopic centers on Barnum's creation of the three-ring circus and his infatuation with Swedish songbird Jenny Lind. Some might be surprised that this is a movie that's cracked my personal … Continue reading My Favorite Movies #87 – The Greatest Showman
I’m Gonna Die Alone
Before we get into this post, it's important to note that I wrote this way back around the beginning of May. I wrote it because it was therapeutic. I didn't immediately post it because I didn't necessarily want the person who winds up being the subject of this post (even though there are no names … Continue reading I’m Gonna Die Alone
How Do Magneto’s Powers Work?
It's no secret that I'm a lifelong DC and definitely not a Marvel. I enjoy seeing movies and TV shows based on Marvel properties, but my knowledge base is mostly concerned with the characters found in the DC Universe. So you'll forgive me when I ask the question posed in the title of this blog … Continue reading How Do Magneto’s Powers Work?
Question of the Week #158
You notice a self-destructive behavior pattern in a friend who is clearly unaware of it. Would you point it out? I would probably try to point it out, yeah. Because if it's someone I care about and they're doing something that's unhealthy or unsafe, I'd want to keep them from harm. However, I would only try … Continue reading Question of the Week #158
It Really Has Been 20 Years…
In the days leading up to my 20-Year High School Reunion, I found myself asking some friends about their own high school experiences. Would they want to relive any of it? Would they do anything different? Not once did I get a yes. I'm genuinely curious about the statistic on how many people actually enjoyed … Continue reading It Really Has Been 20 Years…
My Favorite Movies #88 – Toy Story
Toy Story 1995 Directed by John Lasseter Netflix says: Cowboy-toy Woody (voiced by Tom Hanks) feels threatened when overblown space ranger Buzz Lightyear (Tim Allen) arrives with a suitcase full of bells and whistles.

Has it Really Been 20 Years?
Kids, next weekend is my 20-Year High School Reunion. That's right. I graduated from high school way back in 1998. That's the 20th century, y'all. Am I really old enough to have a 20-year reunion? Sadly, yes. Being 38, I'm the perfect age for a 20-year reunion. Ugh... How did this happen? I'd swear I … Continue reading Has it Really Been 20 Years?
Question of the Week #157
If you had to spend the next two years inside a small but fully provisioned Antarctic shelter with one other person, whom would you like to have with you? This is one of those questions that would be super easy to answer if I were married. Because then I'd just say my wife and be … Continue reading Question of the Week #157
I Thought I Could Do the New Double Dare…
...But I just can't. Kids, when I was growing up in the late 80s and early 90s, Double Dare was THE game show. Well, aside from The Price Is Right, but that was a treat that was reserved only for sick days and summer breaks. Double Dare came on Monday through Friday just after you … Continue reading I Thought I Could Do the New Double Dare…
