‘Meet Tanya Skagle.’ A struggling poet, Tanya works the night shift at a Detroit law firm as a perma-temp proofreader. She knows about Ray’s special talent as the result of their brief encounter after visiting his history class as part of a “Poets in the Schools” program. When they meet again at an entrepreneurial workshop, [...]

Very cute and unintentionally funny self-made video by Thomas Dekker of FOX’s probably defunct Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles show, in which he thanks the die-hard fans of the show for trying to convince FOX to renew it. In the course of the video Dekker telephones FOX’s consumer help line to [...]

Found at blogs.com.  Opinion 100% mine.

Yes, it should be legal but the implementation should be gradual. Make non-medical possession of say up to an ounce legal for personal/private use. Medical use is a different aspect of legalization and that should have different “qualifications” about it’s usage. If marijuana helps sick people feel less sick then [...]

You are Helvetica
You fit in well to most situations. You’re not flashy, and prefer clarity to knocking people over with your style. A tad quiet perhaps, but not stuffy, and you’ve got very strong opinions under there somewhere. When you get drunk, you start looking more like Impact.

I pretty much agree with the “Vulture” critic from whom this list came and whose comments I excerpted snippets from. Of the ten films, I’ve seen five and have started watching the scenes. Some go as long as 18 minutes. Most are a couple minutes long.
More entertaining than I’d thought. Be [...]

Wow. Frank took some time off from posting new secrets over the holidays. He finally posted today and there are a bunch of really good ones!
My “favourite” includes three Post Secrets.

Immediate reaction: chuckle.
Keep in mind though laughter is actually tied into shock, surprise.
My teenage son is a student driver and the last thing I need [...]

This is my favourite Post Secret this week because it made me break out laughing.
Why? Because I can totally relate to attributing human qualities to my dog. Dogs are so tuned in to their people that they often take on certain attributes of them.
It’s so hard to say exactly what a dog is [...]

 
George Carlin first came to my attention when he got himself arrested for uttering the “The Seven Dirty Words You Can Never Say On Television” in the mid 1970’s, when he performed in Milwaukee WI. Until one of my friends bought his comedy album (which some stores refused to carry) with the routine on it [...]

Post Secret was offline (down) before my offline trip of 5 days so I am really behind. I’ll make a sincere effort to catch up. Don’t forget to go to the “search” box on this page for more “Post Secrets.”
This Post Secret is priceless. It articulates so many feelings I have as someone that shoots [...]

What personality trait has gotten you in the most trouble? 

I’m too blunt.
People ask for an opinion and then sometimes they aren’t happy with the answer. Sorry, you asked!  It’s OK to just tell me I’m wrong.
I’m very honest* I suppose, to a fault.
So I forget to “pretty up” the phrasing of something and tick people off.
Or [...]

Nothing. That’s why we have “dark humour.”
The Little Miss Priss side of me wants to say, war, death, disease, crime… but in truth we use humour all the time to cope with these things. If we don’t see even a glimmer of humour in a situation then we are destined be forever glum about something [...]

Go Fug Yourself

The Fug Girls is one of my favourite sites. Writers Heather and Jessica (and Intern George (Clooney) make witty, no-holds-barred judgment calls about what celebrities of any list, A-Z, are wearing–but not in an overly mean way–just really funny. Read on. ( Is it me or is Emma Watson getting really [...]

Why is it that because I work at home that I’m treated like I’m just hangin’ out here at the computer maybe chatting online (which I don’t do, period) or emailing (which I’d like to do but don’t have time for) or I dunno, filing my nails at my work station, which I will admit [...]

Will Smith’s new flick “I Am Legend” made $137 million in two weeks at the box office. I caught it. Will Smith does a good job of being the last crazy on Earth, and seeing New York absolutely empty and grown-over is kind of wonderful. But the creatures look very CGI. 
 Anyway, did you know Arnold [...]
