Doctor What? Doctor Where? Ohhh…Wait…Doctor Who?
For those not in the know, Doctor Who is back, and he’s bigger and…better?…than ever before. If you’re not familiar with the UK Sci-Fi time traveling hero, he’s an almost immortal being who goes on adventures to save galaxies and worlds, especially earth, with people by his side known as companions. He has a tendency to find danger and on occassion, die and get brought back as a totally different person with all of the…

The Ultimate Question: Hot or Not?
As a single man, and well, even when I was not a single man, I would meet and see women all over the place, and I would tell an anecdote to a male friend, and we’d have a laugh or a discussion or a debate whatever it was I talked about. Well, let me back up a little bit, because that’s how the conversation ends. How it begins is, “Hey ‘man’, so there’s this chick…

Be a Dick. It's Cool.
Okay, no it isn’t, but apparently a lot of people think it is. I honestly don’t know what happened to the men (and women) of this brave new world where they feel the only way they’ll get any kind of respect or acceptance is to be a an asshole.

If It's Broke, Fix It
I think we all have this tendency to stick to things we think will work. Like if we slap a lamp to get a light bulb to work again, and it works, we’ll keep doing that until it stops working.

What Happened To The Phonies? The Big, Fat Phony!

This Time It's Not Laziness, Honest
Well, I’ve had a very interesting last four days and I feel compelled to share it, because this may be the only blog post this week. To start, Thursday was wrought with Marvel Movie Madness as I attend the movie marathon at the local AMC Theaters. From Iron Man to Captain America in chronological order, I watch every movie in preparation for the midnight showing of The Avengers. 14 hours of movie magic assaults my…

Happy Star Wars Day
I’d be remiss not to wish you all a Hapy Star Wars Day, and may the odds be…wait, sorry…and May the Fourth Be With You! There you go.

Get Your Ass Out of Here, There, And…Everywhere?
I wouldn’t be sincere or sarcastic if I didn’t point out that the world sucks, otherwise we’d all fall off. Now the world doesn’t really suck for me, but events around the world do, kind of, blow. Governments are trying to pass laws that give up our privacy, foreign countries are unsuccessfully lauching missles, and the title for the most beautiful woman in the world is being fought between Beyonce (meh) and a British woman…

The Gaming World Reaching an Apocalypse?
It seems that more and more people are becoming gamers. Whether they’re picking it up hard core title on the big 2 systems or are casual gamers who like to play on their phones or iPods. Which ever way you slice it, you’ll find that practically everyone is playing some sort of game. There are even millions playing a game, that’s a game and not a game at the same time. I’m talking about Draw…

Wow…
I was going to post something today. Something informative, something funny, something even a little bit ranty, but instead I took the last few weeks to read The Hunger Games trilogy. I just finished the book last night and boy and my tired. The book hit all the right spots for me, and I’m actually emotionally drained by that ending. I have heard all the rants about the ending of the series, and I get…

This week’s Crit Mo has Dani the Universe with Dave the Drummer, and myself, Francis Fernandez and I feel bad as Dani and I kind of dominate the first part of the show with talk of Mass Effect.

Why Do We Love People Who Won't Love Us Back?
I was speaking with someone the other day who had quite the dilemma. She had a romp with her friend rsquo;s best friend. We rsquo;ll call them Dude (the friend) Guy (best friend of the friend). I have a bad feeling about this naming convention, but go with me on this. Now Dude is madly hellip;smitten with said girl and has openly said so to his best friend Guy. Dude has also let the girl…

Huh? What? Wait? What The Hell Am I Writing About?
You know, there are just some weeks where I just have no idea what to write about. I write most of the entries in this blog and I try to think of at least two to three things to write about every week. Of course, I could always put the question out there on Twitter, and maybe even here, for those who read the blog, but I never really get a response. It rsquo;s not…

That Story I was Writing: Chapter 2
HQ was a tower Stuart built himself underneath the bustling metropolis of The City. It was a fairly nondescript city that lived up to it’s name. Apparently the mayor felt it was easier to make a name for a place that had such a simple name. His citizens thought he was stupid. The City is now the home of the Chosen, and the mayor is not the wealthiest man in the country, laughing to himself…

It's Chapter 3! This Story Has No Cool Name
Her apartment was dark and dank, just the way she liked it. It gave off a feeling of, ldquo;You rsquo;re not welcome here, rdquo; or ldquo;You need to leave, rdquo; or ldquo;This may be the home of a serial killer rdquo;. It meant she had her privacy, it gave her comfort, and it gave her a reputation. She did not think of herself as anyone menacing or unapproachable, she just hated people and was not…

The Half Assed Nerd
I think being a nerd/geek is a lie. What?!?!!? I was originally going to talk about the upcoming big comic book movies coming out this summer. Then I realized, I don’t have much to say about them other than they’re going to be awesome. So I want to show you the bit I did write, which is short, but it made me realize something. So here we go with the entry first. “With these movies…

Why The Hell Not?
Jennifer Lawrence of Hunger Games Fame Okay, well, first off, I put up these two actresses because they’re hot. That’s all. No need to beat around the bush, but we as people can be with anyone we want to be with. It’s true. Okay, maybe it’s tough if you want to be with a celebrity or something, but it is known that celebrities have hooked up with and even married the “lay person”. So to…

There Was A Divorce Expo: The Future of The Separation Anxiety?
As a divorcee (sp?), I know what it feels like to have to leave someone you thought you’d spend the rest of your life with. Of course, that was a ludicrous thought in this day and age, when cheating and divorce is like breathing. Yet, for those of us who didn’t want to get it in the first place, apparently there is no somewhere we all can gather, and of like mind, bitch about our…

Apple: The New Flavor Of Kool Aid
I drink Coca Cola and I drink Pepsi. Depending on the people I’m around, I have to choose accordingly. Does that sound weird to you? Well, it’s how I keep the peace around people who LOVE Coke and those who LOVE Pepsi, otherwise I face their wrath at how one is better than the other. Now admit it, you have friends like that too, if you’re not one of “those” people yourself. It’s okay, the…

Let the Games…CONTINUE! Game of Thrones is BACK!
Game of Thrones Season 2 has started, and with all the hype, it was exactly what I had hoped for. A reader of the books, and yet I haven’t read the latest one (waiting for paperback), it’s great to see people get excited over some sword and sorcery again. I grew up with this kind of entertainment, starting with the Final Fantasy video games, to Piers Anthony’s Apprentice Adept series, leading into more books, movies,…
