Anybody planning on watching the Phillies vs. Nationals game on TV tonight, be sure to look for a dark t-shirt wearing pixel on your screen in the far background of the upper, upper deck over left field. That pixel will be me.

It’s another Friday back home after a week on the road. It’s raining, I didn’t want to get out of bed. Deja Vu, huh? It’s another Friday back home after a week on the road. It’s raining, I didn’t want to get out of bed. Deja Vu, huh? That was a cheap joke, wasn’t it? […]

You know the Democratic primary season has been wearing on too long when not one, but two “respectable” media outlets have likened Hillary Clinton’s campaign to a Monty Python skit.

The Powers-That-Be in the film world continue to strip-mine the pop-culture of my youth in order to find new film properties to develop. The latest? a live-action GI:JOE, based on the 80s 3¾ inch line.

It was as if an occult hand had reached down from above and surreptitiously adjusted my alarm clock ahead twelve hours. An occult hand, perhaps, but more likely, it was a bored former occupant of my hotel room having a bit of a laugh at my non-observant expense. Damn the lack of standards which exist […]
