Jun 25th, 2009 | By Dave | Category: Entertainment

While some movies have all their laughs and excitement in the preview, The Hangover far surpassed it.  This entertaining film takes the viewer on a wild and mysterious ride that keeps you laughing while trying to figure out if there are questions left unanswered. Each actor lives up to their expectation and even Mike Tyson [...]



The Proposal

Jun 23rd, 2009 | By Dave | Category: Entertainment

While I reluctantly sat down to watch this film, I made sure to set my expectations good and low. Since I haven’t seen a great Sandra Bullock role since Speed and had my doubts about Ryan Renolds in a romantic comedy, I mentally prepared to regret the coming hour and seven minutes. However, I caught [...]



The Aching of Pelham 123

Jun 22nd, 2009 | By Dave | Category: Entertainment

For two of the greatest actors who have played both heroes and villains, an epic movie was bound for the big screen.  As the movie unfolds into a hostage negotiation we are fed bits and pieces about the character’s questionable judgments. The plot development set the movie on the right track. And then the first [...]



Michael Moore’s Save Our CEOs: Sensationalism And Nothing More

Jun 19th, 2009 | By admin | Category: Business

I recently came across a preview of Michael Moore’s latest theatrical piece entitled “Save Our CEOs,” and was not surprised to find more of the same. In his typical satiric tone, he mocks the nations financial firms for needing taxpayer money time and again. His basic agenda is that we cannot continue to give Wall [...]



Phone Stall

I read this joke through a chain mail and couldn’t help but laugh at how often this happens with bluetooths getting smaller and smaller. (I don’t know the origin of this joke and would be happy to credit it)
Traveling down the interstate and needing to use the restroom, I stop at a rest area and [...]

Do you remember your younger years- dreading going to a class, be it music or math, where you were terrified of the teacher? As you timidly take your seat you glance over at the dictarian sitting behind the large desk, half moon glasses over a sharp nose and a look that could make you sink [...]



Dod Sno (Dead Snow)

Jun 16th, 2009 | By Dave | Category: Entertainment

After seeing this movie, you will wonder why Quentin Tarantino’s name is not listed in the credits. True, he had nothing to do with the movie but with blood and guts everywhere, one can only think of Tarantino’s Planet Terror.
The movie plot begins with a few medical students on a trip in the mountains where [...]



Who Watches the Watchmen? :)

Jun 12th, 2009 | By Dave | Category: Entertainment

The preview for Watchmen fairly captivated my attention and excitement for this blockbuster movie. Having never before read the graphic novel, I had no previous knowledge of the characters or the overall plot. However, with the opening fight sequence my attention was caught and I was reminded of the phenomenal cinematography in 300.
As viewers were [...]



The Stress Test Hypocricy

Jun 9th, 2009 | By admin | Category: Business

In a recent article on Yahoo! Finance, it had been reported that critics were insisting that the government run the stress tests again. Their claim was based on the fact that unemployment has already reached 0.5% beyond the figure used in their model.
And therein lies the hypocrisy. Wall Street traders, quants and executives have been [...]



King Kobe And Prince James

Jun 7th, 2009 | By admin | Category: Sports

After hitting a 3-point shot as time expired, at the end of Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals (2008-2009) between the Cleveland Cavs and the Orlando Magic, the Lebron James mania erupted. Only seconds later, we would hear Earvin “Magic” Johnson compare Lebron’s heroics to that of Michael Jordan, Larry Bird and other greats. [...]
