So two days after making me feel awesome to cheer for UK, the school punches me right back in the gut. We lost to hated rival UofL in hoops, a much bigger deal than winning a bowl game. Winning the bowl was sweet, but losing in hoops just means more. I feel sick. It’s bad […]
Hell yeah, the Cats won the Liberty Bowl. Sure, it’s about 3 stages about a Toy Bowl game amongst 8-year-olds, but hey, it’s a bowl game nonetheless. U of L didn’t make a bowl game, so they can suck it. This victory was not an easy one, but the way it was sealed was nothing […]
Few films move you to gasp with amazement. Man on Wire definitely did this for me. I think it’s the melding of a man whose desire to entertain and challenge himself with the physicality of the buildings he tightropes across in this movie. That those buildings are the two World Trade Center towers make this […]
So it was our last day in Louisville before the big drive back to DC, and after a surprisingly delicious brunch, my mom thought of a quick activity, which was to go to the Center for the Arts downtown and check out this new display. It’s a 30-minute video celebrating Kentucky’s history. At first I […]
Driving from DC to Kentucky and back is not a horrible journey. The trek takes you through lots of different and beautiful scenery. Western Maryland is nice, and once you get into Kentucky you got all those horse farms, and there is nothing prettier than seeing rolling hills with lots of horses hanging out. Just […]
I can barely contain myself. This movie is the essence of putrid. And it’s exactly the kind of movie that speaks to all of Hollywood’s ills. The lack of originality is stunning in Hollywood sometimes. Vantage Point is actually a remake, and though I have never seen the original, I sure as shit ain’t seeing […]
I’ve seen many a movie that has a resounding message to it, and does it in an emotional enough way to make me get just a wee misty. I’m man enough to admit it. And while Benjamin Button didn’t make me cry, it did have one heck of a good message and one that maybe […]
Now, let me be clear. I am not advocating violence toward people. And I really, really, really hate guns. The idea of guns disturbs me. But you know what I also hate? People friggin talking during movies. Talk during the trailers? Sure, go for it. Hate or love the Coke commercials or the dancing hot […]
Those racist, idiot moronic, jackass fuckwads who think they know what’s best for the Republican Party are back. Yeah, some of same fools who think everything with the GOP is just fine as long as they keep up with the racist, we’re better than everyone else, white-and-rich only mantras they keep espousing. Now, I hate […]
First off, hope everyone had a good Christmas Day. Whatever gift you were hoping for (be it money, a pony or 100% convincing that Obama is indeed our president) I hope you got it. Just have to give some much-deserved props to the Campbell kids. Instead of guessing at presents this year, the three of […]
