Serious Questions. I know that ‘The Slap’ tends to be silly but every once in a while I have to point the lens of introspection out to the world around us and get serious about things. I don’t want people to believe I’m one-dimensional and only capable of doing silly captions, articles about vagina-shaped bread … Continue reading
I watched a couple episodes of Homicide last night. I liked it well enough, but it has the best example of bad neat television writing I can think of. There’s a thread where Yaphett Kotto asks the rook to find out who lights the candle that stands by the board with the bodies. The rook … Continue reading
The greatest thing for me of the fall out of the lack of Prince vs. MJ is my renewed interest in listening to their music. iPut Thriller on the iPhone and drove around to it while passing billboards for the 25th Ani release. I went to Amoeba and – though they didn’t have the Eclipse Lubitsch Musicals collection – they started … Continue reading
