I had to call into work today…(Ip Man Review)
I had to call into work today because Donnie Yen’s Ip Man kicked my @$$ last night.
Sandbox Brainstorming: The Ikati
This past weekend, me and the boys got together for our last sandbox brainstorming session prior to starting the game we’ve been working on since last fall. We’re using the Savage Worlds system for our homebrew science fiction setting, This Empire Earth. In our previous session, we considered the empire, developed a new player character […]
Donde Esta Fairy Quest?
Back in December 2006, probably my favorite living comic book artist, Humberto Ramos, announced a project that he and Paul Jenkins (one of my favorite comic writers) were working on together called Fairy Quest. Now, like I said, I’m a HUGE fan of both of these guys, and absolutely have loved everything they’ve done together […]
Purely Speculation: Th3rd World Studios
Somewhere out of the blue the other day, I came across Th3rd World Studios, an independent comic book publisher started in 2006 that, to be honest with you, I had never heard of. Checking out their website, it looks to me like they have some great comics. Here’s just a sampling of some of their […]

Your Morning Head: Watching Watchmen on the iPhone
On occasion, folks will say “it’s just a phone.” Bah! They don’t get it because they don’t have one. Don’t make me choose between you and my iPhone! My iPhone completes me! Much as the silver cord connects my astral form to the Prime Material Plane, the iPhone connects me to the vast, wondrous world […]
Paul's Horror Flix: King of the Hill
I don’t know…maybe it’s just me, but I’d never think to call 911 if I didn’t know where I was. I mean, if it’s from a land line, no biggie, but from a cell phone? That just seems pointless. Yet it happens so often in movies. Oh well, I digress…by the way, MILD SPOILERS for […]
Could this be…the most beautiful thing in the world?
Because we don’t write about enough damn things on this blog, I’m adding food to the mix! Watch CBS Videos Online I love how, at the beginning of the article, it sounds like a rather scaring commentary on a restaurant sure to kill you with its lard coated buns and scantilly clad waitresses. Then the […]
Dissenting Opinions: Super Bowl Commercials
Hey IOM’ers! Just like most of you, yeah, I watched the big game. Every second of it! But whether you watched for the game (which unbelievably topped last year’s) or the commercials, some of those 30 second nuggets were treasures, while some were just awful. So one has to ask: “What does it take to […]

I still think their current cartoon is pretty popular. Check out www.tmnt25.com for all the latest news on the upcoming planned events for the Turtles’ anniversary. […]
