Weekly Pretty February 21, 2011

Hey all. I have been inspired by (i.e. shamelessly swiping from) Tom and Lorenzo’s blog to just give you something pretty (sadly, unlike those two fabulous gents, I am not quite able to get away with referring to my readers as unborn fawns… yet). Here is Adele at the 2011 BRiT Awards performing Someone Like [...]

Lost and Found February 1, 2011

A single keystroke. The gentle clacking of keys for the first time in over a year. A slightly pompous opening to a blog post about nothing. Kind of like when someone pronounces “Othello” like “Oh-tell-o”, it just sounds silly. The fact however remains: It has taken me forever and a day to do anything with [...]

Some stopping, Some starting November 5, 2009

… Hey all. Sorry to have been gone for so long. I am lazy, I had LSATs, an internship, and a job hunt taking all of my time and energy. Fortunately, all four of those are either over or ending, with the sole exception of my laziness, that’s a constant. Now my priorities are shifting [...]

I just play one on TV July 23, 2009

It was right there, taunting me. Daring me to buy it. $7.50 for a movie I have seen and loved? How could I say no? Apparently quite easy, for one very good (to me at least) reason. That reason being that my older brother was there. My older brother, who had attended Marine OCS and [...]

I am the Awkward Turtle. Goo Goo Gachoo. July 14, 2009

One of the more interesting short stories I ever read was in a collection by Thomas Disch. It was about a future society where one needs a license in order to socialize with others. It chronicles this one man as he goes in for examinations to make small talk with an examiner to see if [...]

On Musicals and Queen March 26, 2009

Why has the music of Queen not been turned into a musical? Seriously, why not? If you can get the gloriously ridiculous camp out of the music of Abba, why not Freddie Mercury and co.? What does Billy Joel have that Queen doesn’t? Hell, just rip the storyline from “Bohemian Rhapsody” and pad it out [...]

On me being a slacker. February 17, 2009

I have not forgotten you, more posts coming soon (promise!).

On Storytelling February 5, 2009

Its just been one of those weeks. Not much has seemingly gone right quite recently, which has left yours truly straddling a fine line between frustration and apathy, and then I read the headlines, repeatedly, on my Google Reader, about Christian Bale being a jackass, Michael Phelps being a pothead, and Obama being a complete [...]

… Um… Hello… January 16, 2009

Hello all, welcome to my humble abode on the internet.  I kinda started this on a lark so I am not really sure what to tell you to expect.  So for now it is a catch all on my rambling opinions and whatever I think to put up. With any luck, i will be able [...]
