Anyway, she said that she was not interested and to stop sending her DMs.Continue reading “Choosing The Bear Too Late”

‘Spacey Unmasked’ Is An Eyeopener But Still Leaves Some Stuff Under Wraps

There just always something about Kevin Spacey early on that made him seem odd. He seemed to be perfect at playing characters you didn’t like no matter what. His role as a corporate stooge in Glengarry Glen Ross could’ve easily been dismissed.

How ‘Super Size Me’ Fooled Everyone

Cancer sucks but I have no sympathy for Morgan Spurlock. I express my condolences to his friends and family but the man was a fraud. He was also a scumbag.

‘The Woman In Me’ Is Britney’s Reclamation Of Her Life

I never understood why so many people hated Britney Spears. It’s been about 25 years since I first saw her in her first hit “Baby One More Time.” She seemed like a sweet, talented young woman. But it didn’t take long for so many people to despise her. I’m not saying, they just didn’t likeContinue reading “‘The Woman In Me’ Is Britney’s Reclamation Of Her Life”

If there ever was an example of the phrase, “No good deed goes unpunished,” then Donny Dunn and his experiences are a testament to that.

Harrison Butker’s Speech Is An Example Of Problems In America

By now, there’s been so much said about Harrison Butker’s speech at Benedictine College on May 11 that what else can be said. Well, one thing people really haven’t mentioned is that it emphasizes how athletics is more loved and appreciated than academics.
