Recently, I spent a day laid up in bed, sick, with Gatorade and a TV remote as props to pass the time. Flipping beyond the deluge of courtroom and self-help shows I found a real blast from the past. “The Brady Bunch.” I didn’t even realize old episodes of “The Brady Bunch” were still airing. […]
Saw the “Barbie” movie. Wanted to wait until the hype died down. Brilliant script, great movie. I will be shocked if it’s not (deservedly) nominated for a bunch of Oscars. First off, it’s very smart, very meta, and very funny. I laughed a lot throughout. But it’s also not necessarily for kids, they won’t get […]
What did you have for breakfast this morning? Orange juice? Me, too! Coffee? Me, too! Leftover pizza? Me, too! I guess there must be some special bond between us. Something unique. Something real. You know, I haven’t felt this way since I read that Charlize Theron likes to drink Red Bull — just as I […]
Is ET shopping at HyVee? As UFO sightings increase across the nation, and a Pentagon whistleblower is testifying about the government having UFOs and “extraterrestrial non-human beings” in their custody, there have been a handful of alleged UFO sightings over the Quad-Cities.

However, with all the moral majority whiners returning to gripe about the sinful rot of television, every week a new daytime chatter is getting the short straw. Politicians and pundits are pounding away at the “cultural […]

I have boldly gone where some man may go, some day. Grandma, grab the smelling salts — I have been to the future birthplace of Captain James T. Kirk. Well, it may be the future birthplace. It may not. Not even Gene Roddenberry, who created “Star Trek,” exacted the place of Kirk’s conception, other than […]
There have been a lot of horrible things going on in the news lately. So I think it’s time we had a difficult discussion on a sensitive topic that, quite frankly, I’ve been avoiding talking about for a while. No, not my relationship with Kim Kardashian. (Fifty feet MEANS fifty feet, Kanye!) But rather, the […]
Time is the only thing you can spend once. As we go into Father’s Day weekend, that’s something to definitely remember. Being a father, bringing another life into the world, is an amazing experience and responsibility, and it gives you a blessing in time to spend with a person who will always be a part […]
