Mike Judge, the creator of Beavis and Butthead as well as King of the Hill, brings the world of 2505 to life with 2006’s Idiocracy. Going into this movie I had only heard about the plot and wondered if it could be any good as a comedy. After watching the movie, I have […]

This is the first season that I attempted to watch all of these three shows. I admit that I only watched the auditions of American Idol and that I’ve sparingly watched anything thereafter, but I wanted to make a few comments on the state of network television these days.
Lost is almost completely unwatchable at […]

This was my first experience with an audiobook and right now I’m so-so on whether or not this was a good “reading” experience. Yes, I like the fact that someone is reading to me and its more of a story format, but it’s very easy to have your mind wander when your eyes aren’t […]

Thank you to O-Town for sending this along:
Dear Alcohol,
First & foremost, let me tell you that I’m a huge fan of yours. As my friend, you always seem to be there when needed. The perfect post-work cocktail, a beer at the game, and you’re even around in the holidays, hidden inside chocolates as you warm […]

This past December, I had my truck in the shop for a few days and it cost me about a grand in various repairs. Well, here we go again…
For those of you in New Jersey, you know we had a bitch of a snow and ice storm last Friday. I was driving around […]

One of my roommates and I watched “Unknown” during the snow in last night and it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. I thought it would have been bad because it was an independent film that I figured would have a twisted plot and I was partly right. I say […]

This was one of the best shows on television up until the morons at FOX decided to cancel it last year. And what did they replace it with? That’s right - stupid shows like “til Death” and “The Wedding Bells.” It’s a God-damned shame. But that’s what FOX TV does - […]

Once upon a time I worked at a hotel in Ocean Grove. The best part of the job wasn’t the weirdo jerk who I worked for, it was getting to know the people who lived and owned other inns and hotels in Ocean Grove. They’re really nice folks over there (most of them). […]

The idiot at FOX who decided to cancel Arrested Development needs to be fired and shunned from the industry starting immediately. How can people NOT be in love with this show? I just got done watching a the first two seasons and I can’t believe that some asshole in some office somewhere actually […]

Once again, our idiot lawmakers in New Jersey (both locally and at the state-level) have overreacted to the “storm” that is pummeling the Garden State. Sure, there are some major snow issues going on right now in north and northwest New Jersey, but there is nothing going on besides some rain and some light, […]

In case you missed it, the stock market tanked today on concerns about subprime lending. Linked at the bottom of this post is a PDF report that I helped compile last spring as a Graduate Student that goes into the horrors of subprime lending. Folks, these mortgages are bad for the common consumer […]

Unbelievably, it looks like the law will be followed in Bloomfield, New Jersey.
Township Administrator Louise Palagano explained that as long as Sopranos Production Inc. meets the requirements in Bloomfield’s code for filming crews, the township has no authority to deny the permit.
Holy shit!? You mean someone actually sat down and read Bloomfield’s code? […]
