Cobblings from My Memories

At the end of dinner at Medium Rare last night, the server brought over a parting gift, a piece of Bazooka Joe bubble gum for each person at the table. What surprised me was not that they gave us the gum after we had already had dessert and paid the...

Friday Funnies

In reliving the joy of Pootie Tang last week, I found myself stumbling around on the interwebs checking out some grew Chris Rock clips and naturally stumbled across the role that launched his career. It's brief but memorable, and it's still something he'll never let down.

Trailer Love

A couple trailers to movies I am really looking forward to:X-Men: First ClassWhat can I say, I'm a geek for comic book movies. And though I'm still excited for Thor (despite the trailers that make it look campy without the self-recognition of camp) and also Green Lantern (trailer looks like...
