Something About A Torch….

February 18th, 2010 · No Comments

Some people have asked why I’ve done nothing on the Winter Olympics, currently running from one of The Indignant Wife’s favorite places in all the world – Vancouver, British Columbia? The honest answer (besides having been as busy as two people over the past week) is that I’m ambivalent. It honestly hasn’t been as captivating […]

Marginally Talented; Pretty Boy; Moron

February 11th, 2010 · No Comments

I admit that I had a couple of John Mayer CDs – they were pop music with nice hooks, and I admit that I was impressed with some of his attempts to be taken seriously as a blues musician. He can play, and if he wanted to follow in the footsteps of the late Stevie […]

Looking At The Fine Print

February 9th, 2010 · No Comments

I admit that I hate “rom-coms.” Romantic comedies are among the most insipid film types created by Hollywood. There’s always a miscommunication; something not said; initial dislike which hides “love.” They’re not funny; they’re not drama; they’re not romantic; and they’re nowhere near reality.

Well, as you probably know, I wrote for a couple of sports television shows, but I also did Internet reports on the NFL for a friend of mine in England. Well, hoes in Ireland now, but he’s still in the business, so he asked me to do a piece on this Sunday’s “Big game.” (Isn’t […]

The Precious Blind Side

February 5th, 2010 · No Comments

I admit that I have an addiction to DVDs. I have more movies than I can watch; more television shows then hours in a day. Every week, another package comes to my house with some video entertainment in it. Many are for The Indignant Daughters, but most are for me. The way I see it, […]

I’m At It Again

January 22nd, 2010 · No Comments

I must be a glutton for punishment. After having sent a letter via snail-mail to Big Ten Commissioner Jim Delany complaining about the officials. I still haven’t received any response. But, as you will see in my letter, my ire came out when I was listening to WXRT in the shower the other morning and […]

Too Many (Dumb) Cooks

January 15th, 2010 · No Comments

Usually I take no opinion of casting choices in movies, particularly comic book adaptations. There was a ton of wailing when it was announced that Tim Burton had cast his “Beetlejuice” star Michael Keaton in “Batman,” but things worked out alright (I’d say better than alright). I also wanted people to take time to watch […]
