Andy celebrates his birthday on Halloween. No jokes nor wisecracks allowed, it’s too easy… too easy… ENOUGH! But if you ever, ever call it Andyween again… just kidding. Go have a beer. Tomorrow you can sit down and start writing ten words for NaNo and just make up for the other few thousand the day… Continue reading this entry
Tony has the scoop on an Aliens vs. Predator Movie. I’ve played this game almost ten years ago in the arcades and I’ve been wondering how long it would actually take before a movie came up. Damn, what a long time it has been.

It’s the Devil’s day, or so I was told, growing up listening to thumb-up-ass Catholic old fart priests. Yep, this is the night where the devil roamed free.

Feel free to peruse the “Recent Entries” list on the sidebar, or click on my… Continue reading this entry
Val Prieto shows us the well from which El Jefe draws his inspiration. No surprise here, although deep inside I do hope he’s kidding. As Sarah told me on seeing this: “Cha-ching!”
There are children’s shows, and then there’s Children’s Poison. I don’t let my nieces watch everything that they are “allowed” to see, as far as ratings go. Anything that teaches them that “everyone wins,” that no one “has to lose,” and that there are no bad people, are totally banned from the TV. That includes… Continue reading this entry
