I would like to express my deepest condolences to the families and close friends of those killed in the Air India crash. It seems the more andContinue reading “Happy Father’s Day!”
Thanks Again For Reading
When I started this blog four years ago this month, I did it after listening to a lot of friends telling me to. I didn’t really take it as seriously. I would skip a day or two. Then, my girlfriend, Kerry, died of an illness in the winter of 2022 and the depression hit hard.Continue reading “Thanks Again For Reading”
Happy Birthday, U.S. Army! And Happy Flag Day! And No Kings!
Today is the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army and that’s the only birthday that really counts today. (Ok, maybe someone out there reading this has a special day and I say, Happy Birthday to you!) But let’s not forget the reason we needed to form a national army in the first place. The AmericanContinue reading “Happy Birthday, U.S. Army! And Happy Flag Day! And No Kings!”
‘What Keeps You Alive’ Has A Plot That Is Dead On Arrival
I’ve often thought horror/thriller movies have the best poster art. At one time people used to use originality in all poster art. Look at The Exorcist, Jaws, Back to the Future, or Platoon to name a few.

According to Judd Apatow, one of the reasons his show Freaks and Geeks failed is because NBC refused to allow a website to be created. It was 30 years ago when I first saw a http link used in an advertisement for the digitally remastered VHS boxed set of the Star Wars trilogy. The InternetContinue reading “‘House Of My Mother’ A Memoir Of Abuse And Horrors”
Strawberry Moon Tonight
If you have clear skies tonight, you might want to go out and see the “Strawberry Moon.” The Moon will appear full for three nights and it will be the lowest to Earth for some time. The next time this will happen will be 2043. So, it’s best to take a few moments later tonightContinue reading “Strawberry Moon Tonight”
Thank You, Sly, For Being Yourself
One thing I always loved about Sly and The Family Stone is their music always seemed to have a beat and tone to them that you made you want to sing along and dance to it. AllMusic famously stated, “James Brown may have created funk, but Sly Stone perfected it.” On June 9, Stone, bornContinue reading “Thank You, Sly, For Being Yourself”
