Don’t worry about spoilers; I don’t plan on any. But I do want to share a little on this rainy Friday that is sort of an Eeyore Day. Mom, Meriah, and I went to see the new live-action/CGI movie “Christopher … Continue reading →

R.I.P. David Bowie
Sometimes, a media figure passes, and I don’t have much to say, except that I feel for their family. Sometimes, I have more. Yesterday, we lost a very talented man. He was more than a musician and actor. He had … Continue reading →

I Tried
I did. I tried really hard to watch season 3 of GI Joe, which was when DiC took over. I couldn’t do it. The original animated series was put out by Sunbow. They had some good writers, great animators, and … Continue reading →

They Keep Stealing My Childhood!~
Okay, it isn’t as bad as all that, maybe. But it seems there are shows I fondly recall from my younger years that get ‘reboots’… and some of those reboots suck! GI JOE REAL AMERICAN HERO: the first two seasons, … Continue reading →
