I’ve always hated the Faux News Network. Bill O’Reilly makes my skin crawl and John Gibson is just some weird albino dude with paranoid fantasies of Rambo Claus needing to fight his way through Christmas.
But this takes the cake.
Not only is the whole thing hogwash, (C’mon a drone aircraft with GPS for $500? Sure [...]

I’m not much of a TV watcher. Especially TV series. When you work rotating 12 hour shifts and don’t own a DVR of any sort, it’s just hard to maintain an interest in one and miss half of all the shows.
That being said, the ABC series, Daybreak, has caught my attention.
First [...]

The 03/31/06 episode of The Chair and Automan is out. Download the MP3 directly here. Or better yet, get a podcatching client and subscribe to this podcast here. Or check out my Odeo channel.
In this episode:
I understand that I sound like I’m in a can. I’m trying to fix [...]

Discovery Channel’s MythBusters is one of my favorite shows on TV. Not that I’m much of a TV watcher, but this show grabs my attention when I do have a few moments. Anybody that takes the time to investigate wether urinating on the third rail of the subway would actually shock you is okay [...]

I just got finished watching an old episode of Kolchak, The Night Stalker starring Darren McGavin. It was made in the 70’s so there is a bit of cheese to it and the effects are primitive, but it still plays pretty well. It is still good enough to give me some chills in [...]

During my time off I have watched more TV than I had in the previous four or five years, combined (excluding baseball games). And one thing stands out: it really sucks. I can’t stand most TV shows so I watch mostly movies. Even most of those are for idiots.
Another (un)interesting thing is [...]

Everybody knows that daytime TV sucks. I knew it long ago and my recent time spent watching it has only reinforced that opinion.
The special effects on those Superman movies really suck. And the make-up on the old Star Trek shows is pitiful. The scariest thing about it is that there is a [...]

I had to debate with myself on whether to put his under arts/tv or arts/movies. I figure since it is actually TV about movies, it should go under the tv section.
That being said, who gives a crap about the Oscars anyways? The fact that cornball junk like this has gained such a position [...]

If you believe that free markets always find the true value of an item, then 20 David Cassidy/Partridge Family paperbacks and a used puzzle are worth $46.
I’m just letting you know, in case you were thinking of selling yours.

We went to clean my late Aunt Christine’s house out today. A bunch of stuff is just simply being donated to the Salvation Army, including things I would love to have but simply would not do anything but clutter up my house.
One set of things that I simply couldn’t donate was this collection of [...]
