Jericho, Dead, Sarah Conner, Alive and Kicking

March 25th, 2008 | Posted in Daily Rants, TV

I am noticing the number of posts about death lately; Arthur C. Clarke, F, Marry, Kill and Star Trek Caskets. And yet, here I am again reveling in MY predicted demise of Jericho. Well, not so much reveling as the sage nod of the bald head with a softly spoken “It was pre-ordained”. I mean, lets […]

Arthur C. Clarke is dead, alas. Let’s all get together and kick some ass

 So, the other night I am watching the exciting 2 hour finale of the shortened season of Sarah Conner Chronicles (I am deeply disappointed by their idea of climax), when my wife turns to me and sez….”you know, I don’t much care for this show. It’s too noisy.” OK, she was tired and when I […]

Comic Convention season begins!

March 2nd, 2008 | Posted in Comics, Daily Rants

So, it’s March. And with the sun shining and the snow melting, one’s thoughts turn inevitably towards… convention season. Yes, we’re coming up on that time where at some point, you will be within driving distance of an immense gathering of comics, toys, industry professionals, and the occasional Stormtrooper unit.
