John Hodgman reveals Obama as the Kwisatz Haderach
I’m a huge fan of the Radio and TV Correspondents’ Dinners. Al Franken was magnificent at these events during the Clinton administration. This weekend, John Hodgman delivered the speech brilliantly identifying the rifts this President is healing, the rifts that divide Jock from Nerd…
Happy Father's Day!
When I was a kid, if I recall correctly, I think my sister’s room was the only one that had a VCR in it. We used to gather in there on Saturday nights for family movie night. Sometimes it would be something family-friendly, like Howard the Duck, or those Ewok TV Movies. Other times though, […]

Get ready for ZOMBIELAND!
The trailer for Zombieland was released today and, man, this flick looks REALLY good! It cracks me up that Jesse Eisenberg from Adventureland is now in a film called Zombieland. I’m thinking his next film should be called Pirateland, or, even better, Ninjaland. What’s Zombieland about? Columbus (Jesse Eisenberg) has made a habit of running […]
