Why Do People Like Sarah Palin Again?

It seems like a legit question to me. Why do you like or support Sarah Palin? It doesn't seem like she's done much in the way of actual notable political anything. She has no foreign policy experience, and quite frankly, she seems more likely to talk about her kids and her makeup than anything of political relevance. So, why would you even start to think she'd make a good President of the United States?

Twilight Conquers The Dark Knight

I couldn't believe it when I read it. The newest episode of the Twilight Saga - New Moon - had the largest opening day gross ever. Better even than one of the greatest movies ever in The Dark Knight. How did this happen???

TV Shows in Limbo

All over the web, articles are popping up talking about suspended production on all manner of TV shows, including some shows that I happen to like a lot - funny enough, all the shows of which I think highly enough to write about in this list are all on one channel.

ABC.

Word of advice to ABC. Don't get all NBC on me and start canceling good shows. Don't do it. That would make you idiots. I promise.

Yes, This is AOL's New Logo... No, Seriously

What, you think I'm joking? I wish. For reals people, this is the new AOL logo... or perhaps I should say "Aol." With a period. Lowercase "ol." Puke.

So, on December 10th, Aol will be spun off from parent company Time Warner, and this is the result of the rebranding effort that was undertaken to coincide with the spin off.

Hilarious... and slightly disgusting.

Global Warming - A Big Fat Scam?

The big news from over the weekend was that the email systems for the University of East Anglia's Hadley Climate Research Unit were hacked. The hacker released about 61MB worth of data on the Internet - hundreds of files that detail some startling things about the global warming movement.

The file itself has spent the weekend roaring across the Internet as folks all over the world check out the content of the hundreds of leaked files.

New Moon (Yes, it's Infecting This Blog Too)

I can write about this only because everybody in my office area at work has been talking about this movie for months. It's only picked up in intensity over the last few weeks as we've approached... tonight. Well, last night actually. Last night at midnight, fans swarmed into movie theaters to witness the release of the second movie in Stephanie Meyer's ridiculously popular Twilight Saga. My thoughts...

Calling all Blog Readers - I Need Help!

Good evening, everybody.

Yes, yes, I am still working on my SGU writeup, but life has been getting in the way of sitting down to work on it. I'd like to sit down Saturday morning and watch "Life" and complete my writeup prior to heading up to the mountain country (read: BFE) to celebrate my birthday/thanksgiving with my parents. Here's my crossed fingers.

Anyway, the point of this blog is simple. Tonight on Twitter, I was introduced to a movie called Johnny Got His Gun, and I simply must watch this movie. You see, it's one of those thinking pieces, and we all know how madly in love with thinking movies I am. It also stars one Ben McKenzie of Southland fame, and we all know how great an actor he is. Problem is, I can't find this movie anywhere. Amazon, torrents, ebay, nada. It's pissing me the frick off.

So, if anybody owns a copy or knows where to obtain one, I'm all ears. Shoot me an email or drop it in the comments. Thanks ahead of time!

NOTE: There were two versions of this film made, one in 1971, and one in 2008. I'm looking for the latter.
