This blog shall stop at nothing and stay there, bringing all undiscerning readers up to date information about significant items of interest and intrigue that will certainly be interesting to someone somewhere at sometime. I shall also try to avoid being vague.

There was such a demand for Batman movie tickets and bat-related paraphernalia, the country simply …

It’s over. The hustle and bustle of the holiday season is for the most part dead. Yeah, there might be a late holiday party or an office get-together but those in attendance won’t really have their hearts in it. The stockings are coming down. The menorah has gone out. Relentless winter continues regardless. And your …

Ah hah! Yet again once more, a seasonal Christmas post for this time of the season, Christmas! For the three of you paying attention at home, I started off on this journey with the iconic TV special A Charlie Brown Christmas, then jumped into a holiday comedy with National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation, then examined a …

Once again, despite the court orders, I am going to spend this wonderful holiday time to speak about some wonderful holiday entertainment fare. Oh, I know that you cannot contain your joy …

The merriest of Christmases to you and yours! I thought that I would close out this series of admittedly wondrous blog posts with a doozy of a Christmas movie.

Seriously, I was joking. When finishing my last award-seeking blog post for Day 3, I had no real intentions to talk about Santa Claus Conquers the Martians. Honestly and truly, it was never my thought! I just wanted to end on a semi-lame, partially weak joke. You know, like I do with most of my postings, if not all …
