Who doesn’t love Christmas? Okay, confession, I’m too lazy to get into the holiday spirit. It’s not just Christmas, but all the holidays. Halloween (which I refer to a “Satan’s Birthday”), Easter, or the Rogue River Rooster Crow...

When it comes to me and music, I love variety. My musical tastes span a wide range of genres—Rock, rap, instrumental, country, pop, hip hop, metal, etc. I like artists in each of these genres, but also like those that cross genres, such as rap/metal or pop/country....

With the availability of free streaming services, I’ve had a chance to go back and watch some TV series that I enjoyed as a kid or had missed entirely. I’m sad to say that the results have been disappointing. Shows I liked, such as Family Ties, Battlestar...

Until recently, I never realized how important a good movie soundtrack is. Over the past decade or so, I’ve come to realize that the songs and score chosen for and created for a film do as much to make a great movie as the writing and directing. Carefully chosen...

When you own 395 420* movies that you love, it’s hard to narrow that down to a small list of favorites. I buy a lot of movies, but I have a pretty strict policy of only buying movies that I want to see over and over and over and over and over… you get the...

If you’ve never listened to Christian Rock, then you’re probably wondering who Petra is. Petra is to Christian Rock what RUN-DMC is to Rap. They didn’t invent the genre but rose to become one of the most groundbreaking and influential bands in...

If you’ve known me–however tangentially–for longer than 5 minutes, then you know that I’m a movie buff. I’ve been “collecting” movies since the first VHS copies became available for retail purchase. I remember purchasing the...

I can’t say I’m a huge fan of rap, but I’m not a hater either. I pretty much take it all on a case-by-case basis, and almost all of those cases fall under the name RUN-DMC. I’ve been a fan from the first time I ever heard them. My first...

It’s pretty much a truism that TV shows peter out in their final years. Networks milk every ounce of life they can out of a show and then continue to bleed its zombified corpse to death. But hey, everyone gets a paycheck, right? Fortunately, this trend is...

I’ve been a Bon Jovi fan for as long as I can remember. It all started with You Give Love a Bad Name, which was released somewhere around my sophomore year of high school. By the time the album New Jersey came out, I was hooked. I remember friends riding in my...
