A Woman Scorned…

This post is about abortion. Viewer discretion is advised… When is abortion NOT controversial, so I felt it was necessary to open with the equivalent of a movie black screen MPAA warning… you’ve been warned… The right to have an abortion was decided via Roe v Wade on January 22, 1973 by a 7-2 vote […]

Arby’s Had the Meats…

Why can’t chicken restaurants just sell chicken? To that end, Arby’s is now making burgers. But not just any burger… a wagyu burger.  Before I get into what wagyu is, I want to talk about Arby’s… and Burger King… and Dominos Pizza. Everyone is trying to diversify. But is it working? So wagyu beef is […]

White Hot: The Rise and Fall of Abercrombie & Fitch

This is a documentary more than a film and I’d like to treat it as such with a full feature account of its contents as opposed to a review of the quality of the production. There are no actors with whom a performance needs to be dissected and no story to be told with color. […]

Have a Margarita

Markets

It’s Actually Not a Dollar…

Did you know that all dollar stores don’t sell item exclusively for a dollar? Like most consumers, it is natural to believe that a store with the word DOLLAR in its name means everything is a dollar. But it really means everything in the store is economical like a dollar… Let me explain… There are […]

And the Academy Award for Best Picture goes to…

The Oscar Hypothesis

I don’t know why I put myself through this every year. What I think about films and what the people in Hollywood think about films are oxymorons. It’s diametric at best. I think that’s why I dismiss the term “Oscar pred...

Harry Smith is the Final Straw

The last time I wrote about Harry Smith was to say CBS should have made their newscast, The CBS Evening News with Harry Smith. They didn’t do that and now, Harry Smith is at NBC News. I just watched him fill in for Lester Hol...
