My son is twelve and a half. He’s growing up faster than I care for him to do. Besides being in the midst of a monstrous growth spurt for a couple of months now, he’s dealing with typical pre-teen issues. Adolescence. Things like girls, telephones, tv ratings and skin problems. Like many kids, he enjoys [...]
What’s new? Four new shows were announced. they are Knight Rider, Kath & Kim, My Own Worst Enemy and Crusoe. What’s back? ER is coming back for one more season. It is the fifteenth season it will be on the air, and most likely it’s last. During the announcements it was learned that NBC will [...]
Not too long ago one of the Victoria’s Secret fashion shows was on. I believe it “happened” to be on the television three times while hubby was watching. Ummm yeas, that’s quite a coincidence. I was wondering something though. So many people watch those shows, both men and women alike. Men want them and women [...]
Has anyone seen the new GoPhone commercial? It features Meatloaf singing his big hit Paradise By The Dashboard Light with changes to the lyrics just for GoPhone. I loved the song Paradise By The Dashboard Light, and it’s almost a guarantee that I will be singing along anytime I hear it on the radio or [...]
I wondered this today. Back when the movie The Fast And The Furious came out, many people around here were street racing. Most of them were still just kids, ages 17-20 or so. Late at night they’d take their cars to the nearest wide highway, which was in the next town over, and race. Some [...]

Anyone anywhere, worldwide, is able and encourage to participate in this week long call to action. The goal of the week is to get as many people as possible to [...]
Here in New Jersey the spring brings a whole new set of television commercials. The travel commercials. New Jersey has one, complete with a Bon Jovi track in the background. I also regularly see commercials for New York and Louisiana, and occasional spots for Florida. There are numerous ads for cruises, clubs located in other [...]
I don’t know if NBC paid President Bush for his appearance (ok, recorded message) on this week’s episode of Deal Or No Deal, but if they did they probably didn’t get their money’s worth. The President’s message to this week’s contestant, a US Army officer who’s done three tours in Iraq, was less than ninety [...]
I’m sure by now you, like me, have noticed the abundance of commercials for “affordable” health insurance and term life insurance quotes. These commercials often say something costs as low as “x cents a day” but give you no real details and no idea of what fine print or qualifications that might be attached. What [...]
Mariah Carey’s been around for a long time. One of my brothers has had a thing for her for as long as I can remember, and I’m talking years. I had the tv on the other day but wasn’t paying particular attention, and I looked up and Mariah was on my tv. She was in [...]
