Black Panther: The IMAX Experience
Monday , 12, February 2018 Movies Comments Off on Black Panther: The IMAX ExperienceI’m happy to say I have my ticket to see Black Panther: The IMAX Experience this Saturday at noon. I’ve been a fan of this character since he was first in the Fantastic Four comic book back in 1966 when I was 11. That character, created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, has undergone extensive […]
Just a collection of this and that from recent things I’ve read, seen, or experienced. You know, I just can’t find it in my heart or head to blame Mr. Randall Margraves for his actions in a Michigan courtroom today. I fully understand, as I believe Mr. Margraves does as well, that this is not […]
Ant-Man and The Wasp Trailer
Wednesday , 31, January 2018 Comics, Movies Comments Off on Ant-Man and The Wasp TrailerThe first Ant-Man movie was not a blockbuster production, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. So I’m looking forward to the sequel after seeing the new Ant-Man and The Wasp Trailer below. With the Black Panther movie coming out next month, Avengers: Infinity War in May, and the Ant-Man and The Wasp movie in July, it’s […]
I Asked – Wil Wheaton Answered
Monday , 20, April 2015 Blogs, Family, Movies, Social Media, Star Trek 2 CommentsI’ve really come to love Tumblr because I keep finding more and more of the people I’m interested in over there. Writing, Comic Books, Science Fiction, Photography, and other interests of mine are well represented on Tumblr. My own Tumblr page consists of this blog (auto-post is great!), but it also contains things I find […]
Cold, Celtic Thunder, Fantastic Four & Jogging
Saturday , 31, January 2015 Comic Books, Health, Movies, Music Comments Off on Cold, Celtic Thunder, Fantastic Four & JoggingI’m finally beginning to feel human again, after a week of whatever this cold/flu illness was that I had. I’ve still got a bit of cough and congestion and I’m still feeling very tired, but at least I don’t have all those things magnified along with the aches, fever and headache I went through most […]
Happy Birthday, Elvis Presley
Thursday , 8, January 2015 Music Comments Off on Happy Birthday, Elvis PresleyToday would have been the 80th birthday of Elvis Aaron Presley, had he not passed away on August 16, 1977 at the age of 42. My mother was a huge fan of everything Elvis, so from an early age I grew up with his presence in my life in the form of his music in […]
Severe Holiday Weather Alert
Tuesday , 23, December 2014 Holidays, Movies, Travel, Weather Events Comments Off on Severe Holiday Weather AlertReports are that severe weather over the holidays will affect ground and air traffic, so be especially careful during your travels.
I don’t think there’s any other time of year that has so many cartoons or movies dedicated to or centered around the holiday we call Christmas. And I guess it’s the influence of some of them that have been around since I was a kid that have ingrained them into being such a part of […]

For purposes of their polling, a superhero “is someone who undertakes heroic actions with some kind of superhuman attribute – whether biological, mechanical or mystical. Batman and Iron Man fall into the […]
I just finished watching Apollo 18 on Netflix while doing some research. I’m glad I had the research to keep my mind occupied because I would have been bored out of my skull otherwise. Extremely predictable story, poor execution, and a bad imitation of “The Blair Witch Project” style of “found footage” camera shots. Anyone […]
