Change of Posting Day

I’ve tried Sunday.  During the weekend, the last thing I really want to do is work or think.  I’d much rather spend time with my husband playing video games, dating, and talking.  I get to spend time with him during the week little enough as it is.    I’ve tried Monday, but Monday hasn’t been working [...]

The Stepsisters Strike Back!

My parents, like most I think, raised me on the classic fairy tales.  When I was older, they provided me with the original stories, which are very different.  I’ll never forget how much fun it was to read “Cinderella,” “Beauty and the Beast,” or “Sleeping Beauty.”  Those three were my big favorites.  For those who [...]

Where were you on 9/11?

I did some thinking on this quiet Saturday, that only 9 years ago wasn’t so quiet, about what happened that fateful morning.  I remember where I was when I heard my country had been attacked, vividly so.  I was taking my husband to work that morning, and we heard it on the radio, which had [...]

Aang the Avatar Flies into My Heart as the Last Airbender

Netflix, which I will do a brief, shameless plug for, is a great service. When the Hollywood Video in my town closed down, we switched to Netflix, and we’ve liked the service, especially the instant streaming. Over a month ago, I found all 3 seasons of the Nickelodeon TV series Avatar: The Last Airbender, and [...]

Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats

The weekend of August 7th, to celebrate both my birthday and our anniversary, my husband and I went to the Tuachahan ampitheater in St. George, Utah, which is 4 hours away from where we live.  My parents met us there, and I and Matthew had front row tickets to see the musical, Cats, which I [...]

Dragon Age: Origins

A few weeks ago, I opened my mail slot (I don’t have a box) to find this month’s issue of Game Informer.  That’s the magazine of my favorite local video game store, Game Stop.  Bioware, my favorite game company, has officially announced the sequel for its award winning, best selling game, and my current favorite, [...]

The Book of Eli

Now, normally I don’t watch R-rated movies, and I had no interest in watching this one, but a commentary from the great commentator Molotov Mitchell  really caught my interest about the movie The Book of Eli.  Here’s the clip you can watch before I give my own review of the movie.  Please, go ahead and [...]

Glenn Beck’s American Revival

Glenn Beck’s name seems to evoke a lot of emotions from a lot of people, not all of them good.  I notice, however, that his detractors largely, simply make fun of him, and don’t even try to reason and disprove his positions with facts.  Namecalling, in my opinion, is the last refuge of idiots, cowards [...]

Hell’s Kitchen and Gordon Ramsay

Well, it’s back for a 7th season, another round of wannabes with the shouting of “Donkey!” ringing through the halls again.  Chef Gordon Ramsay is back for more time in Hell’s Kitchen.  I’ve watched this show regularly since the 5th season, and have watched older seasons online as well.  This season the prize is the [...]

Happy 4th of July, Everyone!

We live in the greatest country in the world!  Even though times may be tough, we still have things better off than any other place in the world.  Be grateful and proud to be here!  God, bless and protect the U.S.A.!
