Dreamboy Dreamgirl

Sunday, January 14th, 2007

I’m not so much about guys in dresses, but Jake and Dreamgirls…it’s like the opening was written just for me. If he had broken into “Rocky Top” and started clogging, I couldn’t have been more sure of it. He was actually pretty funny in some of the skits. At least as funny as [...]

Oooh..Snap!

Saturday, January 13th, 2007

I don’t know if any of you have noticed little changes to the blog here and there over the last few weeks. When I got the new computer a few weeks ago, I decided that if I was going to have this suped-up thing I might as well learn more about how to use [...]

Dont’ Bother Me. I’m Busy.

Friday, January 12th, 2007

I have not watched SNL in years. Not since it already hadn’t been funny for several years and MAD TV had come along. But, this Saturday I’m putting Granny to bed early, turning off my phone, taking off my underpants and tuning in to NBC. Guess why.

Hump Day, Epilogue

I spent a year looking for the perfect Hump Day guy and, lo and behold, just [...]

Dear Tony, “What was your biggest fear as a boy, and are you still frightened of it?”
My friend “J” has many times said to me, “You aren’t scared of anything.”
And he’s sort of correct. I would probably do alright on a show like Fear Factor, except the show seems to require [...]

The Battered Blog

Saturday, January 6th, 2007

In a way, blogs are like aging boxers (the kind in a ring, not the kind you wear). Once they’ve been around awhile they start getting hit a lot.
I was looking over the stat logs for the blog to see how things had changed in 2006 and I’ve been hit a lot more than [...]

The View From Here

Friday, January 5th, 2007

I’m a bit of TV junkie. I have been since I was a kid. I was not a coach potato kid, though. I’m not as a grown man, either. I always preferred (and still prefer) to be outdoors. But when I am inside, the TV is generally on. Even [...]
