I’m old enough to remember a time where MTV played videos. I’m also old enough to really not have time for the garbage that MTV currently has in their lineup. Actually, now that I think about it, that last statement isn’t fair. At this point I really don’t know what MTV is playing these days cause I was turned off by the rash of crap (16 And Pregnant, Jersey Shore, The Real World, etc.) they were showing. But I digress…
So I’m at the gym this morning running the elliptical like the hamster that I am, and one… Continue reading
It’s been a while since I’ve done any movie reviews. Hell it’s been a while since I’ve done any posting at all, but that’s another story. Since my last review, I’ve seen a couple of movies and I figured I’d put them in one nice little post. Enjoy!

Is My Childhood Being Raped?
I was born in the mid 70′s. It was before we had hundreds of channels on TV and it was before there was a blockbuster a week in the theaters.
