It’s a beautiful Friday outside in Doylestown, and before I dive back into a pile of legitimate work, let’s discuss a movie my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed viewing this week. The movie in question is Doubt, starring Meryl Streep, Philip Seymour Hoffman, and Amy Adams. Plays that become movies don’t have pulse-pounding action or… Continue reading IT CAME FROM NETFLIX!

Do Not Adjust Your Net
It could simply be due to the nature of the economy, or perhaps the transition from my previous job to my current one, but I have to admit that over the last month or so I’ve experienced something of a heroic BSOD (that’s “Blue Screen of Death” for those unfamiliar with the acronym). It went… Continue reading Do Not Adjust Your Net
Are You Not Entertained?
If Warcraft Sues is any indication, a lot of people running around on role-playing servers like mine are there for shameless attention gathering and “mature” role-playing. Prime examples are this, this and dear God, this monstrosity. This could just be me, but I think that the role-playing bit of a role-playing game should be more… Continue reading Are You Not Entertained?
Movie Review: Defiance
I was hoping to have reviews of current movies ready to go for the next couple of weeks, specifically “Up” and “District 9”, both of which I’m quite eager to see.

Provided you’d like to get paid for your hard work, frustration and original ideas, you’re going to need to get… Continue reading How Not To Query
Come Get Da Voodoo
Since this is going to be a post about World of Warcraft, I’ll spare those of you uninterested in such overt geekery the rambling thoughts that follow. Just pretend I’m reviewing The Hurt Locker or something.
On the Tube: Burn Notice
For a long time, television has brought us a plethora of police & detective procedural shows. From Dragnet to Law & Order, Columbo to Monk, we’ve often spent hours at a sitting looking into the lives of the men and women who enforce the law. It’s a rare show that instead deals with the world… Continue reading On the Tube: Burn Notice
Dry Spells
Let’s say you’re a writer, and you’re finding it difficult to write. You have ideas, perhaps you can even see events you want to write about happening in your mind, but you can’t commit them to paper. Maybe you feel that your ideas are invalid. Maybe writing is not your primary profession, and your main… Continue reading Dry Spells
