    Michael Buble TV Christmas specials.

    I'm not really into these things but I watched one of these a few years ago and now won't miss them. I gotta say, this guy does put on a fun, personable, relatable, non-hokey show and, believe it or not, has some pretty durn nice sound. It's worth your time.

    Childhoods End on Syfy.

    I read this years ago and have always wondered how it would translate to the screen. Syfy did a pretty good job on the "Dune" books a few years ago so my hopes are fairly high for this. http://www.syfy.com/childhoodsend?__source=Maxus_Childhoods_End_Season1&WT.srch=Search I hope there are no...

    Please, somebody tell me this isn't for real.

    "In an interview with the gay news site The Daily Xtra, Stefonknee (formerly Paul) Wolscht details his struggles with being a male-to-female transgender person. The Daily Xtra video, however, glosses over a tiny bit of important information about Wolscht: he thinks he is actually a six year-old...

    I know nothing about animals, but want to buy a unicorn.

    I'm new to this hobby but really, really want a unicorn. Please tell me where I can buy one. I don't want to hear they don't exist. If you tell me that I'll just keep asking the same question, only with the wording slightly modified. And, if y'all persist along that line, I'll get snippy...

    Sony BDP-S2500. A Phantom?

    We were at Wal-Mart seeing what Black Friday sales were left and I saw this BDP (with wireless) for $45.00. We need one for the new place in Texas and this thing is almost small enough to fit in my wife's purse, and the price is unbeatable. Now, I have two other sonys (S580 qnd S390) and love...

    Any input on Marantz SR6006 receiver?

    My trusty Denon 2802 has lost it's ability to receiver FM stereo. Mono, yes, but stereo? No. So, it may be time for an upgrade. I'm looking at A4L and don't want to go over $500. The Marantz receivers there have the two features I want: MC analog input and all channel preamp outs. The...

    So, I get a call from Microsoft technical support this morning.

    Normally, I ignore unknown calls but I was asleep and couldn't read the caller ID. I pick it up and I hear background noise and an Indian comes on saying they are from MTS and have detected a problem with my computer. I say don't bother I know about this scam and hang up, expecting to go back...

    Scream Queens

    I watched the first one, not knowing exactly what it was, out of boredom and didn't expect too much. I'm glad I did. Its like a cool peppermint patty on a hot summer day. It's about a sorority house that's plagued with a serial killer. Your typical teen slasher movie, but with a twist. This...

    Worst Aunt Ever

    According to the Connecticut Post, Connell told the court "I live in Manhattan in a third-floor walk-up so it has been very difficult, and we all know how crowded it is in Manhattan." And that, "I was at a party recently, and it was difficult to hold my hors d'oeuvre plate."...

    What the heck is a "Fixmestick"???

    No cracks about it being only for women, either. I've seen this on and off over the last few weeks and I'm a member of the "If it seems too good to be true, it is" school of thought. https://www.fixmestick.com/?utm_source=Facebook&utm_medium=CPA&utm_content=learnStick&utm_campaign=Haru+-+10...

    I nominate her for the most annoying woman in the world.

    I wish it had gnawed off her whiny face off. Hopefully, before she was able to reproduce.

    This is just so, so true.

    "All-wheel drive is about getting your car moving from a dead stop—not about braking or steering—and you should be aware of its limitations." Well, hallelujah! It's about time someone made this common knowledge. People think they are invincible in their AWD vehicles. I wish I had a nickel for...
