Who knew?
I am not now and never have been a fan of Jim Carrey. His comedic performances are just not my type of humor. He was good in the Truman show, but that’s my only note for him. However, this is a very interesting statement. Especially if it’s how he’s lived his life, as he claims.
I have no idea where I heard this song originally, but I was hearing the rhythm to it in my head all day yesterday. I could hear the tones of the female vocals, but I just could not get what she was actually saying. Without something solid like that, I hadn’t a prayer of finding…
Some cover band covered the entirety of the first Guns and Roses album in the style of 1950s “rock and roll”. It’s…. different. It’s not quite as kitschy version of “Welcome to the Jungle” the band was playing in the bar in the movie “Swingers”, but it’s definitely different. It’s a little less “Welcome to…
I’ve thought we should get rid of pennies for like 30 years, but I never thought anyone would do it. And that was before I knew that it cost almost the cents to mint every penny. This article (and Trump’s statement simply says that the cost is “more than 2 cents” to mint a penny,…
The consequences of a single questionable decision by a single judge is essentially going to ruin Delaware’s economy. I knew that a judge had blocked Elon Musk’s pay package from Tesla even though the share holders voted on it beforehand. It was blocked based on a law firm finding a shareholder with nine shares (out…
This is an interesting character sketch of Luke Skywalker. I haven’t really taken to much of the Star Wars material that has come out lately. I loved the movies as a child. Then there were some books. The original trilogy from Timothy Zahn – which was the origin of some fantastic characters like Grand Admiral…
The new Triumph Spitfires look pretty cool. I guess they’ve had 45 years to work on the design since they stopped making them so if it didn’t look good, it’d be pretty shameful. I’m not going to post any links or photos. They’re easy to find and I don’t want to pick an example.
This is interesting to watch just to see the sheer volume of the boxes, the pieces and the assembled minifigures. We’ve all seen displays where the same box was repeated several times – on the stores at shelves. But this is a whole different scale. I think my favorite part is the very end where…
When I first saw some of the new shapes Lego was making, I kind of felt like it was cheating. When I was a kid, I didn’t have to walk to school, 37 miles, barefoot, through the snow, uphill, both ways, as the joke goes (or did, before it was beaten to death, but that’s…
