In fact, I was astounded when I logged onto facebook last night at just how many status updates I saw that were about watching the first night of the week-long event put on by The Discovery Channel. Some people aren’t fans while others, like myself, watch all the [...]

I bet you watch Mystery Science Theater 3000. I bet you love this show. I’ll even bet you love Tom Servo specifically, everyone does after all. I swear I’ve heard more about that robot than I have anything having to do with the show, though I never heard he was a robot. [...]

For a couple of years, I’ve been told by friends and acquaintances to watch Dead Like Me. One friend found it on a friend’s computer and watched a few episodes, and told me I’d dig it. Another friend shared my passion for Reaper. Given the similarities in the concept, and the similarities in Glad Bags [...]

My first day of C2E2 flew by in a flurry of costumes, lightsaber battles, and illness. I arrived late and left early,vowing to return stronger and more focused the following day.

The Second World War is something that most people alive today cannot comprehend in its enormity.
