The Rant

Has anyone ever noticed how the majority of horror movies that are released to theaters begin with “The”? I don’t mean like, “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre” or “The Hills Have Eyes”, or movies that actually need a “the” to make it a proper title. I’m referring to titles where it’s obvious they picked the main [...]

I’m Not Quite Eva Longoria

As soon as I set up my new blog domain a couple weeks ago, I decided to waste no time in setting up a separate e-mail address for blog followers. I figured it was a good idea in case anyone ever wanted to e-mail me, but I could still keep my personal e-mail address private. [...]

Um….Boo Hoo?

I couldn’t help but laugh when I saw this article online today, from the New York Times. The title of their article is “As the Rich Get Poorer, Teenagers Feel the Crunch.”
