Last month I went to visit America for a couple weeks and I recorded the entire trip on the Twitter. Here are all my tweets, from the minute my vacation began to when I got back home. Sorry they’re in reverse order – I can’t find a tool that will export them from first to [...]

Did you know that there’s a film adaptation of The Little Prince? Neither did I, until I randomly downloaded it and watched it today. Here is my judgment on it: everything about it is splendidly perfect except for the kid’s hair. His hair is really, really bad. It is 80s rock star bad. Even worse, it’s [...] Ever wondered what I do when I go to America? So have I. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of how I spent my winter vacation. Day 1: JFK, Reagan, AT&T, T-Mobile, Chipotle, Costco, CVS, Lenscrafters, chicken tenders, cookies, Benny Lava Day 2: pancakes, online glasses shopping, Kohl’s, Popeye’s, Goodwill, AT&T, Buca di Beppo Day 3: Costco, Pizza Hut, At&t, [...] The Macintosh computer is 25 years old, and in its honor I want to share my memories of the different Macs I’ve used. Way back in the 1980s, I was in elementary school and my family’s computer was a Mac Plus. The Mac Plus was a hell of a machine for its day, though I didn’t [...] The Prestige is not a bad movie. But it is boring. It’s not even boring in a good way, like Jim Jarmusch’s movies, which have to keep a slow pace because they’re serious. It’s boring in a bad way, like a talented author’s first novel that he planned to write for a decade and falls [...] I’m not sure why, but there’s something special about movies that start with “American.” In my own cinema library, they include: American Beauty, an awesome movie; American History X, an awesome movie; American Psycho, an awesome movie; and American Splendor, which would be a pretty good movie if I had any tolerance for comic books. Add [...] If you’re a football fan, like I am 16 times a year, you might share a special appreciation for a breakaway run. Watch the quarterback hand the ball off to a running back, and watch him shoot like a rocket toward the line, twist and turn, jump and duck, maneuver, fade, feign, and then run [...] I recently watched the Beowulf movie. What, you didn’t know there was a Beowulf movie? Don’t worry, I didn’t know either until I realized it was part of a large group of movies that I copied from a friend’s external hard drive (thanks, Itai). Before I go any further, I just want to get this out [...] I just watched this movie Juno, which I hadn’t heard about until my brother told me about it in Florida a couple weeks ago, and I’m sure a thousand other people have made this observation already, but it’s practically a cross between Saved! and Napoleon Dynamite. Tweet This Post I wasn’t alive when Kennedy was shot, and I wasn’t present when Rabin was shot. I’ve never been in the neighborhood when aliens abducted a redneck, a yeti was tracked or Elvis was sighted, all to my great disappointment – at my inability to proffer firsthand eyewitness evidence in direct contradiction of the lunatic conspiracy [...] |
