In a decade dominated by classic animated tales of love, heartbreak and song, it’s easy to forget ROCK-A-DOODLE (1991), a musical fable that features all three in giant doses. The film comes from Don Bluth, who isn’t a member of the ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT family but the director who shaped an … Get hard
Full Disclosure: I’m writing this while listening to the “Once More With Feeling” soundtrack from BUFFY. But, of course. Sometimes things so bizarre, weird, or perfect, just fall in your lap. That was exactly what I felt like when a Facebook friend (so you know we’re close) of mine posted … Get hard
There might be some misconceptions about this one and googling “sudden death” is a risky proposition, especially with the rash of untimely and tragic celebrity deaths recently. Unfortunately, I cannot teach you how to avoid sudden death, as the book above purports (for 25 cents, no less!). Nor am I talking … Get hard
You likely haven’t heard of SEATTLE SUPERSTORM, one of SyFy’s sci-fi tales of woe and weather. Unfortunately for you, that’s about to change. The 2012 release stars CAPRICA’s Essai Morales and a slew of actors I can’t even pretend to care about. You don’t need me to tell you it’s … Get hard

It took me awhile, but I’ve seen (practically) every new scripted drama and comedy for this fall, to the detriment of my mental health. Judging by the first two weeks, this is one of the worst new seasons in recent memory, or maybe that idea is exacerbated by actually watching … Get hard
Day 58: Wednesday December 7th, 2011 I grab breakfast to go to sustain me on the train and get to the train, ready for an all day affair. I get to Figueres, a city on the border of France and Spain. My first transfer consisted of crossing the platform. Even … Get hard
Day 57: Tuesday December 6th, 2011 I was up at 8, and found my backpack wet on the roof due to rain, an awesome way to start the day. I made my goodbyes to Raquel. While my time there was semi-awkward because we are hardly good friends anymore (which became … Get hard
Day 56: Monday December 5th, 2011 I was up at 10, and had eggs and cheese and some bread. I learned I couldn’t function in the kitchen because I couldn’t even make that myself. It was sad. Raquel needed coffee so we stopped at a cafe, and because I hadn’t … Get hard
