Dear Singer/Vocalist/”Artiste”:
The Christmas Season is once again upon us, and soon you will be put into situations where you will want to join with others and sing the songs of the season. This may mean that you will sing a solo piece at church, or if you are fortunate enough to make a living making [...]

Just when you thought you had seen and heard it all from the Hollywood crowd, this happens:
Whoopi Goldberg is facing a fierce backlash after saying that film director Roman Polanski didn’t commit “rape-rape” when he had unlawful sex with a 13-year-old girl.
Goldberg, star of The Color Purple and Sister Act, said: “I know it wasn’t [...]
I first became aware of Star Trek (the TV series) around 1970, and became a huge fan of it shortly thereafter. Now, when I say huge fan, I don’t mean still-living-in-my-parents’-basement huge fan; just that I would go to my TV every Saturday night at 10:30 pm and watch the reruns religiously. My parents thought [...]
I went and saw Iron Man last night at a sneak preview at my local theater. In a nutshell, if you like these types of movies (action/adventure, heroic man vs. evil man, fate of the world at stake), you’re going to love this movie. If, on the other hand, you’d rather see something which is [...]
According to this test, the Marvel Superhero I most resemble is:
I saw the first movie in this series on cable awhile back and wasn’t too impressed. The sequel looks much better, however. Look below the fold to see a still photo from the new one.
I’ve been listening to Rock ‘n Roll since the 60’s. I’ve heard it all; The Beatles, The Animals, Jimi Hendrix, Led Zepplin, Rush, Grand Funk Railroad, Thin Lizzy, Pink Floyd. The list goes on and on. Yet, as good of an idea the Rock ‘n Roll Hall of Fame was, it has failed to live [...]
So, there you are watching The Godfather on TNT. Michael Corleone is in Italy, and you’re following the dialog by reading the captions. All of sudden, you can’t see the captions, because TNT is playing an advertisement for some other program which will be on a few days from today. Characters from this other show [...]
When I was a child, I once watched a television show which was showing how a candy company made taffy. I was intrigued by the way the worker pulled and twisted and otherwise mangled the taffy to get it to turn out the way he wanted it. When he was finished, it didn’t look anything [...]
Since I am currently on the waiting list to receive a kidney transplant, I found this article from The Australian very disturbing:
DUTCH broadcaster BNN plans to air a television show next week in which a terminally ill woman will decide who out of three young patients will get her kidney.
Viewers will be able to advise [...]
Now that’s funny, I don’t care who you are!
I don’t know about you, but I am slowly going crazy over the wall-to-wall, 24/7/365 coverage of the death of Anna Nicole Smith. I tune into Fox News, hoping to find out about what is going on in Iraq or with politics and all I get is live coverage of some hearing in Florida over [...]
