Hey, at least I showered

July 31, 2003

Got a lot on my mind lately. Not anything that I care to expose to the whole world here. But let’s just say that it was enough to make me forget to dry off my legs when I got out of the shower today. Yep… dried off other stuff, but as I [...]

New Tull, Anderson and Barre Solo Albums

July 29, 2003

If you’ve been paying any attention to the music I’ve been listening to lately as shown in the column on the right or in the My Music section of the site, you’ll notice that I’ve been listening to an incomprehensibly large amount of Jethro Tull. So I thought, “Where Are They Now?”
Ian Anderson, whose [...]

I Speak English

July 24, 2003

I rented “A Better Tomorrow” and it’s sequel from Netflix. These are some of John Woo’s original Hong Kong action movies from the 1980s produced by Tsui Hark and starring Chow Yun-Fat. These are the two films that led up to Woo’s action masterpiece, “The Killer”. “A Better Tomorrow” introduced much of [...]

Men On The Moon

July 21, 2003

I’ve been working my way through the HBO miniseries, “From The Earth To The Moon”. It’s 12-episodes long… so who knew that episode 6 would already be covering the moment when Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin (of Apollo 11) landed and walked on the moon on July 20, 1969? And, who knew that [...]

Some mini movie reviews

July 18, 2003

Got a bunch of mini movie reviews for you real quick.
About Schmidt
This is the one where Jack Nicholson was highly praised for his performance. The critics’ comments on the DVD box also say it’s going to be funny. It’s not. While it’s competently directed and Nicholson’s performance is good (he’s not just [...]

Hey, guess what? Out of nowhere… The Lip Synch Videos Volume 3 is in the can and packaging is complete! I only have one made right now… my proof disc. I went ahead and did the art work on it real quick even though I haven’t yet viewed the final disc in [...]

Ping-Pong Meets The Matrix

July 11, 2003

Check this out: http://www.ntv.co.jp/channel/asx/hkzkt10.asx.
It’s ping-pong done Matrix style, live on stage with no computer/digital effects. Very cool little video. Runs a minute-and-a-half.

TV Sucks

July 10, 2003

I don’t even know why I have a TV topic on this web site… maybe I might sometimes write something about the few shows that I like? I dunno. TV sucks. It just does. Face it. If you don’t agree, just remember that the first stage of coping with addiction [...]

Evil Conspiracy or Paranoid Delusion?

July 8, 2003

Last week my wife (and myself by association) was accused of fashioning a plot against some neighbors that resulted in an arrest and felony charge. The incident happened while I was gone at work last Monday. As soon as I got home, my wife was leaving for her job and had five minutes [...]
