You are born in a room with stark, bare walls. Within this room you remain for your entire childhood. You have no human interaction. When hungry, you type what you want into a computer, and it materializes for you. Besides your sex and complexion, you know nothing about yourself. You don’t know your parents, your … Continue reading
The first and best compliment that I can pay Green Zone is that right after I left the screening, I tracked down the source book, Imperial Life In The Emerald City – which wasn’t particularly easy to do after midnight. Naturally, the movie, which was directed by Paul Greengrass, is much more bombastic and … Continue reading
In a few weeks something that should be of huge significance is happing in the UK – a general election. We have three main parties in this country, Labour, Conservatives and the Liberal Democrats.

No doubt they laugh at your every joke (was that indeed them with you tonight?) and you thrive on it. That’s nothing to be ashamed of. At least not in private. But when … Continue reading
Dear Wheel of Fortune (dare I address Pat Sajak?), I like you, the Wheel. I like you quite a bit. And that’s not just my patented vodka-wine speaking (recipe: take one glass shitty grocery store wine. add vodka to taste). But I have to wonder about your contestants. Do you intentionally bring on the biggest … Continue reading
So I’m a lying liar who lies all the time, what can I say? Just when I thought things were going to get into a steady groove for me, I find myself on the move and with rare access to computers. Thus a limited amount of time on the boards and with this blog. I … Continue reading
I haven’t done a My Eyes! My Eyes! in a while, because just about all of the movies I’ve seen have appealed to my notorious easy going nature. However there have been 3 films that I’ve seen over the past few months that really really SUCKED. I actually like when this happens, because it reminds … Continue reading

However, this Thursday night would change … Continue reading
