Bad Time Equals Good Times
You might wonder how that can be, but sometimes something is just so awful that it becomes laughable. That was the case when we visited the restaurant On The Border in Exton last night. Let me start at the beginning. We arrived and were promptly taken to our table. Nothing wrong there. Well that was…

FEARnet on demand video sucks
As an on demand service under the movie category I expect certain things. One of which is no commercials. They have put commercials smack in the middle of their films. When I first heard about this new service from Comcast I was very happy, especially since we do not get the channels that Direct TV…

Fur: An Imaginary Portrait of Diane Arbus
This film, [amazon_link id=”B000XW5A50″ target=”_blank” ]Fur: An Imaginary Portrait of Diane Arbus[/amazon_link], which is very loosely based on Diane Arbus is pure fantasy. The title an imaginary portrait does not even begin to touch on how imaginary this really is. As one reviewer put it, this is “a modern day beauty and the beast”. Nicole…

Denny Crane Quote
I finally watched the season finale of Boston Legal and William Shatners character Denny Crane is the greatest. I hate to say it but I think this is the Shatner’s best role ever. Quote from the finale that stuck in my head was… Â “IÂ once captained my own spaceship…[I’m] multi-talented. “

Wacko Woman at Walmart
I was in the parking lot of the local Wal-Mart [so that should tell you the type of people we are dealing with here] when I heard this woman screaming F*** this and F*** that on the top of her lungs. So of course I had to look and listen while putting my groceries into…

She was immediately ripped open, stuck on her stand and placed on a spot of honor on my desk at work. Figre description: Direct from the pages of DC’s Weekly Blockbuster comes Batwoman. Standing at…

Pirates 3
Went to see Pirates of the Caribbean 3: At World’s End. [At our usual time. The first showing of the day on Saturday morning. We will never see a film at night again the local audiences are too disrespectful of the other film patrons.] It was pretty good. The first two are better but this really ties…

Bionic Woman Returns to TV
I absolutely loved The Bionic Woman in the seventies. When I heard that there was going to be a new series on NBC this Fall I got pretty excited. At first. Then I thought back to the Jamie Sommers I knew and loved. How can they remake her? [I know they have the technology they…
