I finally made it out to see “Dark Knight” (see my prior post to read more about my delays in getting to the theater). My sister-in-law volunteered to babysit the kids for the evening so my wife and I could step out on a date. And what better date for a couple married over 11 years than one that involves very little conversation (sorry, dear – the joke was there). She wanted to see it as much as I did, so it was a welcome retreat for both of us. Though after seeing it, I think she isn’t sure it was the retreat she had hoped for. Read more “Knighted”

Dark Nights
Those who know me know that I am a fanatic about all these comic book movies they’ve been producing in recent years. So as no surprise this summer’s comic book blockbusters have been like a slice of heaven for me. I’ve seen the Incredible Hulk (loved it), Iron Man (loved it enough to see it twice), Indiana Jones (okay, not really a comic book movie, but close to the genre) and … not Dark Knight.

Day One
Okay, I know that blogging is not a new phenomenon. And I’m not exactly new to the internet – I was in chat rooms back in the days of BBS and TELNET (when WWW was but a twinkle in some CS Engineer’s eye); I was setting up LANs in my father-in-law’s office as a summer project back when Microsoft’s only network-enabled OS was Windows 3.11. I’m sorry, I geeked out a little bit there. My point being that I have been immersed in the web for nearly as long as it has been around. And yet my wife managed to break into the world of blogging before I got around to it (which you can feel free to check out). But I digress.
I declare this blog, much like my mind (and now my mouth), opened. If you like movies, TV, music, comics, the Internet, technology, video games (I think that covers most people somehow), then you will find my musings on such topics here. Feel free to comment, supplement, complain, or tell me I’m full of crap. I have a fount of useless knowledge at my disposal that I’m not afraid to use and what I don’t know, I will likely make up and try to make it sound believeable. Feel free to call me on that, too. But let the games begin!
