We Need To Talk About Mens Mental Health Awareness
June is Mens Mental Health Awareness Month. I’m not surprised if you don’t know. Mental health is taboo too much with men. No one really wants to talk about it until someone goes nuts and shoots up a school, church, parade, concert, movie theater, etc. And then it briefly gets mentioned for a few daysContinue reading “We Need To Talk About Mens Mental Health Awareness”
‘Send Help’ Avoids Normal Cliches As A Dark Comedy On Social Structure
A movie like Send Help seems to have arrived at the right time. Following the Texas snow winter storms of 2021, many of these doomsday preppers found themselves unable to survive a week with no electricity. When the fit really hits the shan, they’re SOL. Rachel McAdams plays Linda Liddle, a mousey strategist at aContinue reading “‘Send Help’ Avoids Normal Cliches As A Dark Comedy On Social Structure”
Suppose They Gave A Narcissistic Octogenarian A Party And No One Cared
Alright, show of hands, who all knew the Freedom 250 events would focus solely on the President and the President only. It’s even funny how some people are blaming the initially announced musical acts cowering to their fans and pulling out. Yeah, the nerve, huh?I mean with musical acts canceling concert tours left and rightContinue reading “Suppose They Gave A Narcissistic Octogenarian A Party And No One Cared”
Drumpf Jinxes Knicks
Ok, show of hands – who isn’t surprised the New York Knicks lost the third game against the San Antonio Spurs? While it was a close game at 115-111, there was a spectator in the crowd who was only there to make it about him. The Knicks last won a NBA championship in 1973 andContinue reading “Drumpf Jinxes Knicks”
Remembering Those Who Fought And Died On D-Day This Day
When I worked at the Wagoner Tribune, one of the older military veterans, Arlie “Lee” Wilson, had participated in Operation Overlord, aka D-Day, which began on June 6, 1944. It was a main offensive in the European Theater of World War II that would result in the surrender of Nazi Germany about a year later.Continue reading “Remembering Those Who Fought And Died On D-Day This Day”
Newborn Foal At My Neighbor’s
My neighbors who live across the road from my house have their own ranch with cattle and horses. Recently they had a new foal born. They’re also beef suppliers if you’re in the area and looking for some good meat. Check out Oklahoma Beef Market or Jarvis Ranch.
Before ‘Scary Movie’ There Was The Horror Parody ‘Student Bodies’
Horror comedies have been around for decades all the way back when ‘Abbot and Costello Meet Frankenstein’ had the two sharing the silver screen with Lon Chaney Jr. and Bela Lugosi. And then Mel Brooks and Gene Wilder gave us ‘Young Frankenstein.’ In 2000, the Wayans brought us ‘Scary Movie,’ a crude but hilarious parodyContinue reading “Before ‘Scary Movie’ There Was The Horror Parody ‘Student Bodies’”
Turtles Are Back For Spring
It’s June now and I usually see the turtles come back in May but we had a lot of rain here lately so they must’ve veen hiding trying to stay dry.
Leno Leaves On A High Note, Then Ruins It With An Encore And Coda
With Stephen Colbert gone, the future of late-night talk show TV looks bleak. But Jay Leno once went out in the best way. No not that time, the first time. It had been announced in the mid-2000s that Leno would leave with Conan O’Brien taking over as host of The Tonight Show. For a weekContinue reading “Leno Leaves On A High Note, Then Ruins It With An Encore And Coda”
