I love the Mayans. Love them to death. Thankfully they don’t know me or sill roam the Earth or else they’d have me sliced and diced and on my way into the sacrifice dumpster faster than you can say "Cortes was a prick". I also love the really crazy things they did in the name … Continue reading
[Same intro as last time] Once upon a time I was a Stephen King apologist. If he ran over someone’s cat, I’d drive to their house and say “I’m sorry Stephen King flattened your furry little Obnoxio”. Nowadays, people are running Mr. King down like it’s going out of style [once] and his last few … Continue reading

Battlestar Galactica ended its second season on a stunning note: the ragtag fleet had found and colonized a planet they could live on, but the Cylons found them – and conquered them. The finale proved once again that Battlestar is a show that’s not afraid of changing up the status quo in favor of great … Continue reading
This may not be news to you, but it was news to me. Then again, I just write the TV news here, so why would I be up to date with what’s happening on the boob tube? At any rate, the Sundance Channel is going to premiere City of Men tonight at 9; it’s the … Continue reading

I know I’m going to get mail about this, mail which will be along the lines of “Have you … Continue reading
