CBS’ new sitcom $#*! My Dad Says starring William Shatner is based on the Twitter account of Justin Halpern, who lives with his 89-year-old father. The show’s premiere brought in 12.5 million viewers last week. Maybe that’s why CBS is planning another TV show based on a Twitter account, @shhdontellsteve. That one is about a [...]

Today marks my one year anniversary with my girlfriend, Melissa. This past year has been both amazing and exhilarating. We’ve traveled and we’ve spent time together at home. We’ve both seen new places and met new people that have made our lives better. We’ve learned just how great helping each other feels. We’ve enjoyed being [...]

Okay, so I missed the MTV Movie Awards this year. Until I caught half of the second immediate rerun and the other half of the third immediate rerun. Overall the show was pretty good, a lot of funny jokes from host Aziz Ansari (“Parks and Rec”) and some typical MTV-ish moments, like Sandra Bullock’s kiss [...]

Tonight Melissa went to see the musical Mary Poppins at a theater in the area that is what I can only assume California’s answer to Broadway. While I’m sure seeing the touring productions of Broadway shows are an experience in themselves, I’ve always enjoyed (and only known) the Broadway version of, well, Broadway musicals. And [...]

If you know one thing about me, it’s that I love movies. I love watching movies, I love experiencing movies on the big screen, and I love dissecting the pros and cons of movies. I go to several movies a month and I enjoy just about everything about the movie-going experience, except maybe paying $11 [...]

Another Friday the 13th and another day full of superstition-filled odd occurrences. While I was taking a lunch break at work, the bottle of sweet tea I was holding suddenly fell out of my hand and smashed to the floor, spraying iced tea and shattered glass everywhere. Maybe I was just stressed out at work [...]

“Hey buddy, wanna see Jupiter? Jupiter — the planet?” This is definitely not one of the usual questions I hear when walking out of the movie theater parking lot on a chilly November night. Familiar would be, “Didn’t you just love that movie?” or “Hey, wanna get ice cream?” So yeah, I was having what [...]
