Nothing I can write here can properly sum up tonight’s game and it’s meaning for us Kentuckians. It’s just too big. Too big of a moment for a state that has so little impact in the grand scheme of things. But nevertheless, tonight I hope my Wildcats emerge victorious. If they do not, then I […]
OK, bear with me, this is a long video. I love Kevin Smith. I watch all his movies, listen to his series of podcasts and also watch a ton of Q&As with him. He’s hilarious, has no filter whatsoever, and while super knowledgeable about Hollywood and comics he can at times come off as so […]

Last week a couple coworkers and I went up to Baltimore to see a Seattle band called The Head and the Heart. They are a cool folk/rock hybrid band that has a way bigger following on the east coast than I would have thought (the club was PACKED and very engaged throughout the show). I […]
My journey down the corridors of history (how’s that for some schmaltz?) takes me out West, as I explored the Battle of the Little Bighorn, which was one of the major turning points in American/Indian relations after the Civil War.

The Graduate (1967): For a woman who loves Simon & Garfunkel as much as the wife does, it was stunning to hear her tell me she hadn’t seen this movie all the way through. “yeah, there is the great music, the guy gets hit on by the mom and it’s kinda creepy and depressing” was […]
This one is going to be rather simple. I love board games as a kid. Actually, screw that, I still love board games. Friends and I still get together now and then to play Trivial Pursuit or Scattergories or some kind of game that pairs well with drinking. My two favorite board games are Clue […]

Duck Soup (1933): This is up there with All About Eve as an early contender for Most Pleasant Surprise movie in the challenge list. Not sure how this one escaped me, but I didn’t know it was a Marx Brothers film, so just seeing the name Duck Soup on the list was a little eye-rolling. […]
