David Lynch’s sublime soap opera TWIN PEAKS returns tonight. Giving all of us original fans hope that we’ll finally get an answer to the question we’ve been wondering about for 25 years now. I was a Twin Peaks fan since the beginning, I remember watching the premier and being entranced. That first season was incredible…

Choose 3 Powers To Make The Ultimate Superhero. . .
In a previous post, I went over the pros and cons of some of these powers. Super speed is a great power for becoming a superhero. That’s really the only ONE power that works. But multiple powers at once? That’s a different story. If I could only pick one out of this group, I’d probably…
OITNB Star Jamie Denbo, 43, Told She’s ‘Too Old’ to Play a 57-Year-Old Man’s Wife
Jamie Denbo is speaking out against sexist age restrictions in Hollywood. The actress, known for her role as Ginsberg on Orange Is the New Black, posted a series of tweets Wednesday after she was told she was past the age limit for a role. “I was just informed that at the age of 43, I…
DAVID CLARKE MAKES ME SICK
I really hate this piece of crap. Seriously, just looking at him almost makes me physically ill. He’s David Clarke. Since 2002 he’s been the Sheriff of Milwaukee County in Wisconsin. That’s it. He has no significant accomplishments other than that. Not to knock the work of Sheriffs, I’m just saying that he doesn’t stand…
Music, Video Games, or Martial Arts?
Well, this is another rather easy choice. I’ve written before that I’ve never been into video games, so that has no thrill for me. Mastering ever martial art would be good for personal self-defense, I guess. But since I don’t have the wealth necessary to also become a real life BATMAN, I don’t really see…
Michelle vs. Melania
NICKI AND NAS. . .
…sitting in a tree, k-i-s-s-i-n-g. I just heard this morning that Nicki Minaj and Nas are dating. For some reason this “news” is blowing up all over the various hip-hop websites and radio stations. I’m old and mostly out-of-touch with most modern music these days, and that includes rap. But I don’t see what the…
Which Button Would You Press and Why?
This is a good question, so let’s go down the list: Turning invisible doesn’t really have as many practical applications as you’d think it would. Unless I’m specifically planning to become a criminal. Or if I already were a criminal, and needed to hide from the police. Flying? Same thing. It would be fun. That…
“DUDE?”
I came across this online. I don’t know who wrote it or where it originated from: And all I can think of to say to that is:
HAMSTER RAGE #3

Crowley Colored by Randy Field Cover drawn by Tony Maldonado PREVIOUSLY: HAMSTER RAGE #2 Roosevelt, the fan-favorite 6 foot tall talking hamster is back, in this latest collection of Brian J. Crowley’s “World’s Weirdest Webcomic.” And in this issue he fights a giant talking lobster,…
Watch A Bad Movie or Listen To A Bad Song?
I thought this would be a more difficult question than it actually is. I once I gave it a minute of thought, the answer was clear: listen to a bad song. Really, it’s mostly a matter of time management. If you have to watch a movie, you’re stuck while that movie is on. Even with…
Actor Spotlight: GABOUREY SIDIBE
Yes, I know that when I created this particular category, I said was mainly with the intention of spotlighting established actors and actresses that I thought were underrated, or new actors and actresses that I think should be more well-known. I don’t know if Gabourey Sidibe really fits either of those criteria, but my main…
Do You Believe in GHOSTS?
I asked this question on my a Facebook page last month and was slightly surprised at the number of friends who said yes. I also asked some coworkers and got several affirmative answers. But I guess I really shouldn’t be surprised. Statistically, most people believe in some sort of religion, which includes the belief that…
Best Movies You’ve Never Seen: MR. WRONG
Directed by Nick Castle Written by Chris Matheson, Kerry Ehrin and Craig Munson Released 1996 I always loved this film, which stars Ellen DeGeneres and Bill Pullman, as Martha Alston and Whitman Crawford. Martha is lonely single woman who has been unlucky in love, and is becoming increasingly frustrated with her lot in life, especially…
Do Some Women REALLY Agree To Go On A Date Just Because They Want A Free Meal?!?
A friend of mine recently posted some thing on Facebook, it was a list of suggestions on how to find and improve relationships between Black men and women. Most of the list standard stuff like “be honest about your intentions and what you’re looking for” blah blah blah, but one thing on the list directed…
Pick Three Pills. . .
This was easier for me that I thought it would be. Of course my first thought was to pick the Money Pill, but then I figured it would be better to pick the Future Pill. With that, I could make plenty of money. Like Biff in Back To The Future II, I could first get…
If You Could Pick The Way You Die, What Would You Choose?
This is another one to answer: peacefully, in my sleep. DUH. Yeah, just go to sleep like normal one night and then, at some point in the middle of the night while I’m still in a deep sleep, my heart just simply stops… Although there is another part of me that kinda hopes I could…
If You Became Stranded On A Desert Island & Could Only Have ONE Book With You, What Book Would It Be?
Attn: Wanna be wiseguys, yes I already know what the sensible answer should be: Ha ha. But the real point of this question is to determine what is your favorite book, the one you could read over and over again, which you need to do if it were your only form of entertainment available. And,…
If You Could Have Any Two Famous People For Your Parents, Who Would You Have and Why?
Well, first of all, let me just state for the record that I would NOT want to change my mother, whom I love dearly (my father, on the other hand, is a different story). And even if I didn’t, I obviously can’t. This is just a harmless little hypothetical thought experiment. That being said, my…
Shelley Dufresne is. . .NOT GUILTY?!?
PREVIOUSLY: Details From Shelley Dufresne’s First Day In Court I’ve never been a gambler. I think I played the lottery once, joining in with coworkers at one of my jobs. On my first trip to Las Vegas, I tried one of the slot machines a couple of times, but that’s it. I don’t have the…

Former Destrehan High School English teacher Shelley Dufresne walked into Jefferson Parish district court Tuesday (April 25) followed by her attorney, Jim Williams, as she prepares to stand trial on two counts of carnal knowledge of a juvenile. Dusfresne is accused of having sex with a then-16-year-old student. PREVIOUSLY: Shelley Dufresne FINALLY Gets Her Day…

Written by Erik Larsen Drawn and colored by Nikos Koutsis Published by Image Comics PREVIOUSLY: MIGHTY MAN #1 This was a nice surprise to see in this week’s list of new releases on Comixology this morning.

Breaking The Bro Code, Part II: The Jackson Brothers
PREVIOUSLY: Breaking The Bro Code (BIG TIME) Alright, hold on to your hats, y’all. This one is even worse. I’ve written before about my life-long admiration/idolization of Micheal Jackson. Well, this also extended to his family in general. The Jacksons were pretty much the closest thing we had to Black American Royalty. And while we…
