I'm gonna need you to use your imagination with this post. I know it is a #wednesdaywalk post, but the truth is, I only have one really good picture to share with you from my walk. This past weekend @mrsbozz

Following in the footsteps of other smash-hit films is nothing new for Hollywood. This film attempted to follow both "Walk the Line" and " Crazy Heart" in their portrayal of country

I ignored this show when it first came out (not long ago) because it didn't really appeal to me at the time. I came home a bit drunk and though "well, this looks like a low-intelligence show"

This is a particularly humorous part of history and one that I only recently became aware of. The year was 1146 source The first relics of crossbows can be traced back to Ancient China. These were far

It wouldn't be fair for me to do a writeup about Vesuvius and ignore this rather morbid day in history when it resulted in a far greater loss of life. I don't think this eruption is talked about very much

It's one of the most recognizable songs of all time and was also one of the best-selling. Hey Jude was a non-album single that was released on a new record label that the Beatles actually owned called

It has been extremely rainy up here in Chiang Mai lately and this is exactly zero surprise because well, it is rainy season and this is exactly what we expect this time of year. We still run though and

The Dark Crystal is one of the favorite movies from my childhood. I was kind of traumatized by the Skeksis who are just terrifying characters... well, if you are 6. source So in case you are unaware of

I have lived in Thailand for nearly 15 years and to say that I don't really have the capability of following the NFL would be an understatement. Regardless, there was a fantasy live draft this afternoon

It is tough for me to say because I guess I am too old now but i think it is safe to say that no one actually buys albums anymore. There was a time when we had to if you can imagine that. There was no

The original Psycho is a legendary film, mostly because it was a very risque project at the time. By 1983 the film industry had become significantly less puritan and slasher films were pretty commonplace

You have probably heard of Pompeii and how the city was destroyed at a very rapid pace when a big volcanic eruption occurred - well, Mount Vesuvius was the culprit. source The year was 79 AD and there

This is going back a ways. I have known about Ali G for quite some time and really appreciated his mockumentary work particularly when he would travel to the United States where the public were completely

So I was watching UFC this past Sunday and noticed a repetitive commercial about a shampoo. The commercial doesn't explicitly say that it will grow your hair back or even prevent male-pattern baldness,

I am a big fan of fighting sports, primarily UFC and boxing and really look forward to the Sunday morning UFC sessions at my local pub (it's morning for us because the events are evening in USA.) I can

Kristina Wong is a comedian and activist and she has also been elected to a quite small position in San Francisco. She has released a Sesame Street looking program on YouTube and I watched a bit of it

This HBO series was very short lived and I think a lot of that has to do with the fact that a great deal of the plot was designed around musical numbers that the two main actors had developed over the

There is some controversy going on (or whining, depending on how you look at it) at the moment over a new document that the Thai government has required for all people residing in the Kingdom longer than

Madonna is kind of an annoying activist more than anything else these days, but there was a time when she was cutting edge and to be honest, quite risque. This was particularly true in the 80's when it

The person in question in this documentary is named Nick Yarris, and he does almost all of the commentary throughout the entire 96 minutes. source This guy Nick, is so compelling and entertaining, that
