Khaaaaaaan
Ricardo Montalban passed away. He died January 14, 2009. As posted over at the Huffington Post, he is often remembered by things like: “Fine Corinthian leather,” Khan and, “Smiles, everyone, smiles.” The “Fine Corinthian leather” dates us all. Perhaps the younger generation better remembers him saying “carne asada” in a Taco Bell commercial a few…

Happy New Year
Not too sure how happy this year will be but since 2008 ended so badly 2009 should be better. I hope. Here’s wishing everyone else a great new year. I am sitting here watching Bugs Bunny and trying to remember better times. So far I got to see some of my favorites like the little…

Mom’s Funeral Service
We got to the church early, but Mom’s oldest sister had already beat us there. I asked the service director to take photos of the flowers but could not bring myself to take them or to have him take any of Mom. (I know this is odd coming from someone, whose family, Dad’s side, does…

Big Bang Christmas
Tonight’s Big Bang Theory wasn’t really an exceptional episode, but it had its moments. The best of those was at the end of the episode when Penny finally gives Sheldon (who I believe is quickly becoming the show favorite — I know he’s my favorite) an Xmas gift. (You will have to watch the episode…

Catwoman and Big Bang Theory
I am sitting here working on my posts watching Batman: Returns and Batman and Catwoman were in the middle of a big fight scene and my thoughts immediately go to Big Bang Theory. First I said something about counting catwomen and then I lower my voice and say “I’m Batman”. If you haven’t been watching…

In the season opener of Big Bang Theory we find Sheldon staying over at Howard’s because he cannot keep a secret Penny told him from Leonard. Once settled in bed Sheldon begins to ramble about Catwoman due to the Halle Berry Poster over Howard’s bed. Here’s their conversation. After this I will give my list…

Boston Legal Back But Not For Long
I was very sad to see that Boston Legal will be ending after this season. This was the only TV series I was really waiting for all summer. Bummer. Guess I will have to enjoy Denny Crane as much as possible this season while I can. The premiere wasn’t all that special, but it was…

Worst Week is Worst Series
Worst Week was the worst series premiere so far. I think it just might keep that title too. It was actually painful to watch. It was very predictable and not in the least bit funny. The characters weren’t the least bit interesting or compelling. At least CBS thought ahead and stuck this at the end…

Thoughts on Jodi
I am not really the Jodi Foster fan in the family, I just get pulled along for the ride, so to speak. While I do enjoy most of her films, I am not ga-ga over her like some people I know. So then, why am I writing about her today? Sometimes one of the keyword…

Middleman – Quirky Fun Show
A friend of mine turned me onto the TV series The Middleman. Of course like everything in my life I am a day late and a dollar short. I caught only three (actual 2 and 2/3s) episodes and now it is over. It was on ABC family and what I have seen of it its…

Bones Season Opener
Watching Bones tonight. It is the season premiere. Aren’t season premieres supposed to be something spectacular or at the very least be a little better than a regular episode? You know to suck you in and get you hooked so you stick around for the rest of the season. They’re not supposed to suck all…

Star Trek Next Gen Wrapped Up Into One Song
I loved this song when I first heard and thought someone should do a video. Well someone did. Here is a video montage of all seven TNG seasons in one 4.5 minute video. Wow!
