Rant of an insensitive madman?
Well it would seem that my last post was, well, a while ago. It would appear that my ambition to keep up to date on posts has once again gone by the wayside. What have I been up to if not actively blogging? Well the answer to that is simple. Not much. I have… …more
Under the Dome: A review
Yesterday I finished reading Stephen King’s novel, “Under the Dome”. This is the first novel I’ve actually finished reading from him in a while – last one being “The Cell”.

…Braaaaaaaaaaaains!
Ok, so this weekend I didn’t see a new movie. Total sad face. My movie night seems to be becoming a bi-weekly thing cuz there just isn’t much good stuff coming out. There were only 2 movies that I could have been talked into paying to see; Paranormal Activity 2 and Hereafter. I know I… […]
