These types of lists typically come out at the beginning of the year.  I’m all for giving convention the middle finger so I’m doing it in the day after St. Patrick’s Day.  Got a problem with that?    Part of why I keep this blog is as some sort of  “outlet” for my creative juices.  [...]

So I was watching the Grammy Awards this evening a couple of days late wondering who the hell everyone was.  I understand that I’m getting a bit older and I’ve never been all that “up” on pop music.  However, I saw a dude that reminded me of something from my past…something that I’d tried to [...]

Finally Something Good From The Birdman

By On March 10, 2010 · 2 Comments · In Professional Wrestling

I’ve often said that one of my least favorite wrestlers of all time is the WWF’s Koko B. Ware.  (The character that is… I actually enjoyed some of his earlier non-Birdman work).  This is a dude that’s in the WWE Hall Of Fame and I can’t for the life of me figure out why.  He [...]

WrestleMania 25 Recap – Lackluster Show With A Couple Of Standouts

By On April 7, 2009 · 4 Comments · In Commentary, Random Stuff, Rants

Pip, my brother and I got together and carried on our tradition of watching WrestleMania together.  This was the 25th anniversary of the show so were expecting big things and a great show.  What we got (with a couple of exceptions) was neither.  Overall I’d have to say it was a pretty bad show [...]
