Television Addiction: Dexter – Season 1

As I sit here staring at a blank word processor, I fight the urge to try and rub the sandy texture out of my eyes. I found myself glued to the television last night and didn’t get to bed until much later than usual. I’ve become engrossed by a television show and kept telling myself [...]

Movie Night with the Wife: The Ugly Truth

On Sunday my wife made a passing mention that there was a movie coming out later that evening that she wanted to watch together. I probably gave her a small smile and nodded my head as I continued with what I was doing. Later that afternoon, my wife reminded me that we were going to [...]

The Blind Side

It has been said in the past, but it is worth saying that my wife and I are not big movie-goers. Every now and again we will go see something new but we tend to go to the earlier shows which aren’t nearly as full. Seeing movies in this manner generally has us in he [...]

Watching a movie on a slow Halloween Night

Last night was Halloween night. As the sun went down, my wife and I made sure to have some candy near the door just in case a child strayed over to our home. Because of the way our house is situated on the block, often times kids opt not to trudge up my walkway for [...]

Batman: The Dark Knight

While growing up, I became pretty fond of different television shows and movies. Some of my favorites were simple cartoons which included; He-Man, Thundercats, Voltron, and so on. In addition to these fondly remembered television shows, I used to like to watch some of the older shows played on Nick at Night. Some of these [...]

Fast & Furious

A few years back, I remember going to see a movie that I thoroughly enjoyed. The movie had lots of action which revolved around street racing. This was a subject that I thought was very interesting and got to see on more than one occasion while I was younger. Of coarse, none of the racing [...]

Buena Vista Social Club

A couple of weeks ago I found myself with a little more free time than usual. I decided to fill the void in my day with a little Hulu watching. After catching up on the couple of television shows in my queue, I decided to take a look at the movies available. Somehow I wound [...]

Stuck in the 80′s Movie Realm

So the other day, my wife and I were hanging out in the living room watching television. I don’t think anything decent was on so I was randomly flipping through channels to see if I could find something interesting. Wouldn’t you know it, before long I found an older movie that I enjoy watching anytime [...]

Frontier Horizon

After an evening of working with the dog on heel training and teaching him the off command (so that he stays off of my leather sofa), the night wound down and I felt myself getting bored. My wife was half asleep watching Property Virgins on TV, so I thought I would sneak off and have [...]

How do you like your movies to end?

A couple of weeks ago I was over a friends house having a cigar in his office. After about an hour of solving all of the worlds problems, the topic changed to movies. We got to talking about movies with happy endings and how neither one of us really liked the ones where things ended [...]

Desert Trail

After dragging myself out of bed on a rainy Monday morning, I had to put my planned yard work on hold and find something to do for a bit while the weather cleared up. I grabbed myself a cup of coffee and lit up a cigar before deciding on watching the fifth of six movies [...]

Texas Terror

As I continue right along with my John Wayne Collection, I watched the fourth movie of six, Texas Terror. This film was featured in 1935 and runs for 53 minutes. With about half of my El Cobre left, I went ahead and hit play on my DVD player to continue my Saturday night movie session. [...]

Rainbow Valley

I had an hour to kill on a Saturday morning and thought I would pick up where I left off on my John Wayne collection. The film I watched next is Rainbow Valley. The film hit the scene in 1935 and features a young John Wayne. This is one of several “B Westerns” that John [...]

Paradise Canyon

Every year at Christmas, my in-laws put together a Pollyanna. It normally consists of about 8-10 people and price cap is set to around $30.00. Each year I put together a short list of odds and ends that I would enjoy having. This year, among other things, I listed a generic item entitled “Random John [...]
