Gran Torino is another film that I really hadn’t heard much about – funny how that happens when you turn off your satellite and cable. I kinda dig not seeing all the previews. When you think about it – most of the time, the previews either show all the good parts of a movie or [...]

January 31st, 2009 Chris Doelle I did just over five miles today on my bike and started thinking about a goal. Last year was one of my worst in terms of total mileage and I think its time to get my butt back in gear. Rather than just do something simple like set a goal of “ride more” or “ride [...]

January 31st, 2009 Chris Doelle I have to give big “ups” to Lisa Marie Coppoletta for turning me on to wordle.net. On this site, you take a bunch of text – could be a story, a poem, just your favorite words… whatever, and from those words, wordle.net will create a “word cloud.” Words that are use more frequently will show [...]

January 25th, 2009 Chris Doelle It feels like a crime to review these two films in the same post, but I thought the irony of seeing two excellent films back-to-back that are so wildly different was too much to pass up. The first one I saw was Zack and Miri Make a Porno starring Seth Rogan and Elizabeth Banks. It [...]

January 23rd, 2009 Chris Doelle I know junkier is not a word, but trust me – it applies. I just had to snap a pic after I saw this at the checkout of my local 7-11. You are looking at a Butterfinger BUZZ! Yes, you read that right “With as much caffeine as the leading energy drink!” So take the [...]
It may not be fake, but it’s not good television either
January 22nd, 2009 Chris Doelle My friend Tony shared this with me and after viewing the online clips – this seems like a good idea with very poor execution. The “experts” are campy and fake, and the writing is juvenile. I think I’ll pass. thatsnotfake.com
