Correcting George Will’s standard bullshit…

The answer according to the clairvoyant seer of the East…Karnac! Dust, spare change and George F. Will. Ripping open the envelope, and now the question. Name three things you’ll find under a rug. The Beltway Bullshitter who loves Baseball (his … Continue reading

1970s: New from Flesher Price!

I still probably would’ve preferred having the Star Wars version of this toy from Kenner because it was a loop of the battle involving the Falcon trying to escape from four TIEs. But given how low brow the Seventies could be, this … Continue reading

My right-wing cousin’s normal attire…

or how numerous White males dress in the Austin ‘burbs, especially in Cedar Park, Round Rock and Georgetown. The proportion grows the further North you go into Williamson County and beyond. I imagine it’s true with the other three directions … Continue reading

RIP Coolio

Sad to hear about Coolio suddenly passing, he was only 59 and was still in demand for his varying talents. Although I’m not into Rap/Hip Hop music, I always loved him for being the voice of Futurama‘s Kwanzabot, a nice, non-violent … Continue reading

Join Starfleet! It’s not just an adventure…it’s a job!

I know this is just a set worker cleaning the bridge but it reminded me of a rare, funny SNL fake ad mocking the US Navy’s campaign to get people to join with their new catchphrase, it’s not just a job…it’s an adventure. … Continue reading

1988: The Naked Gun, still holds up

Another entry for the Lost Tales or “Steve didn’t post this in a timely fashion.” In the end, does anyone really care? Maybe. I really wanted to get my recollection posted closer to the New Year because that’s when I saw this … Continue reading

Teen Titans Go! To the Movies: Streaming

Movie number one for my birthday double feature had to be this on its opening weekend. I readily admit the humorous version is growing on me via Hulu. I remain a fan of the serious version first and will always … Continue reading

Pretty sad news over this weekend regarding the man who was the first Batman I knew as a little kid. By then Batman was being shown through syndication for afternoon TV. It was so inspirational that my brother and friends often … Continue reading
