Five days later…
I survived Lost Weekend IV. Not many did. It was grueling: 18 movies over a three.2 day period. Figure hour forty-five, give or take, each, comes out to be 28, 29 hours of movies over a 72 hour period. It’s like going to a … Continue reading

And So it Begins…
Lost Weekend IV, that is, which opened tonight with: In. Tense. Michael Shannon plays a man without a soul while Andrew Garfield plays a man trying to find one. Gotta say, I had far more sympathy for Rick Carver, the satanic realtor portrayed by Shannon, then … Continue reading

Quest for People
I was perusing the local convention scene a couple of weeks ago and came across this: StarQuest, a Trekkie convention to be held in Frederick, MD, just a little ways down the road. Now, I am not a Trekkie. Sure, … Continue reading

What’s a cat gotta do…
…to get a neck scratch around here? Assume the position, I guess: Roll around a little bit: Well? Sheesh, finally! Making me work too hard for this, Krauss. Keep it up, you’re gonna find a dead bird in your cereal.

Dover ComiCon 2015.
