Things I Have Learned

No resolutions this year. I know what needs to be done, I know what I want to do and making a list won’t help me accomplish anything other than making yet another list to add to the plethora of lists I’ve made every year for decades. Plethora. I’ve always liked that word, although I have …

What a perfect summation

This is a few weeks old but I wanted to post it anyway. Craig Ferguson recently had Matt Smith, the current Doctor of BBC’s Doctor Who, as a guest on his nightly late-night talk show. (The only one I even bother trying to watch). Ferguson likes to do little musical and puppet-show intros for his …

Star Trek: Enterprise Crew

I never thought I’d ever say this but…I’m going to miss Star Trek: Enterprise. So, let me back up and explain. Back when Enterprise first aired, my husband and I gave it most of its first season to impress us. It failed, miserably. We didn’t hate the characters – which made it a huge step …

Hey, I think something’s happening today

Now what was it? I know it had something to do with one of my geek obsessions. I’m getting a book vibe, no! A movie vibe. Wait – both?! Oh yeah, nothing big. Just part one of the last Harry Potter movie. As Ted Mosby would say, “Ain’t no thing but a chicken wing.” Yeah, …

Miles & Ben: "Dr. Linus"

So, here’s another “Lost” post for you which will probably include spoilers. If you’re not caught up with all the new episodes and don’t want anything ruined for you, go away now. I’ve been watching “Lost” since it first aired way back in 2004. I even liked the ‘slow’ part of Season 3, especially the …

Halloween Movies 2, 3 and 4

Over the weekend the husband and I watched three October-appropriate films – An eighties slasher flick Happy Birthday to Me, an eighties horror-comedy House II: The Second Story and the more recent The Batman Vs. Dracula animated direct-to-video movie. Let’s start with the animated movie: Movie 2:  Saturday October 2, 2009 Film Title: The Batman …

Who's Anniversary Is it? That's right!

This past Sunday (November 23) was the 45th anniversary of the airing of the first Doctor Who episode on the BBC network entitled 100,000 B.C. Originally intended as an educational program to teach children about history, it was soon obvious that the ratings always went up when the show had monsters and the education bit …

Embedded video removed – it messed up my template. CLICK HERE to see the video. (Don’t worry – it’s just puppets)

Hmmm…maybe next campaign

I Am A: Neutral Good Half-Elf Ranger Neutral Good characters believe in the power of good above all else. They will work to make the world a better place, and will do whatever is necessary to bring that about, whether it goes for or against whatever is considered ‘normal’. Half-Elves are a cross between a …
