Sometimes it takes the worst, which includes death for a person to actually be noticed or given the recognition that they’re due. There are several artists or great people who have only received a certain recognition after they have died, and as brutal as it might sound it’s actually …

I rarely criticize Green Bay Packers players because it is my favorite team and I would give anything to be in their shoes. But, Johnny Jolly is proving to be a player who just doesn’t get it sometimes.
Jolly, who is already facing potential prison time for drug charges, essentially …

I was all prepared to be sensitive to NeNe and her life issues. She appears to be a fairly normal housewife who wants the best for her family. The fact that she spent over $6K for a suit for son to me, was a little over …

We don’t hear a whole lot about Ben Murphy anymore, but in the 70’s and 80’s he was quite popular. I imagine that most people remember this actor for his role in Alias Smith and Jones, where he co-starred as Kid Curry alongside Pete Duel. Both men …

I had the first opportunity to really see this actress up close and personal in a film called “The Marsh.” According to internet research, she is originally from England, and has been in several films. Most of them, I have not seen or even heard of …

Benigno Aquino Jr. is my hero. The Filipinos fondly call him Ninoy. I decided to write about him now because today (the time of this writing, August 21, 2009) marks his 26th death anniversary. Through this humble piece, I hope to inspire all readers to follow after Ninoy’s patriotic …

I always loved Bob Ross. I watched him since a teen on THE LOCAL PBS channel. Once I started painting seriously I knew what my next birthday gift would have been. Finally once I turned 32 last year, I had the pleasure to open my first Bob Ross painting …

Jennifer Anniston is one of those actresses who nearly everyone knows about because she has appeared in a lot of popular shows and movies over the years and because of her relationship with the Hollywood heartthrob, Brad Pitt. She has even been voted one of Hollywood’s sexiest women time …

Sean Hannity is a very opinionated man. I have watched him now for years because he holds the same conservative views I do. He isn’t my favorite commentator since in my opinion he seems like an idealogue, someone who has a set way of thinking on all issues. My …

The Philadelphia Eagles are saying running back Brian Westbrook should be able to play against the Dallas Cowboys this weekend. This is good news for the Eagles because they need him. But, I think the team really needs to start looking for a long term replacement.

I used to watch the CW network show, “Girlfriends” - all the way up to the point where Toni’s character left the program. I enjoyed this sitcom because Tracee Ellis Ross’ character is one that I could identify with. Her comedic neuroses, her style of dress, …

Akon is a horrible rapper and with such stupid sounding songs such as lock up and so beautiful it is no wonder why I think his lyrics are wack and suck. His voice is also horrible and he sounds a little below average when it comes to his singing …

Peter Dinklage is one of those actors who I have come to have deep respect for over the past couple of years because of their performances in different roles. I understand that the name might not seem familiar to most people, especially since he’s practically been an unknown up …

Well that was an interesting move. The Seattle Seahawks decided to sign running back Edgerrin James to a one-year deal yesterday.
I know the team is somewhat desperate for a running back but this move really doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to me. They had an aging back …

I felt pitiful for Christina Applegate, especially due to the recent death of her on and off boyfriend, Lee Grivas. Lee is a photographer of some sorts and cause of death is yet unknown. He was found dead on 1st July 2008, I think.
I think Christina Applegate is …

Working from home I manage to spend a lot of time on my computer, and most of my contacts come from the virtual world of the Internet. You would think that I would be lonely living in a world ruled by my computer with little contact with the outside …

I must say I liked Vin Diesel the very first time I saw him in the movie the Fast and the Furious. Although he wasn’t in the lead role in that movie he had this amazing charisma that basically made him the best part of that film. …

I for one am sick of seeing tributes and obsessive media coverage following the death of the self-titled King of Pop.
Michael Jackson was on the verge of a comeback tour because his career had become practically non-existent after he was accused twice of molesting children. It makes me sick …

Gordon is my favorite friend. I met him about almost two years ago. He was my English teacher at bimbel Danie. But now, he is one of my best friends. My favorite one actually. He is an easy going person, many people get along well with him. He’s a …

I cannot remember exactly at what age that I have been introduced to Mrs. Maritess Crisostomo. She is my neighbor, living two houses away from us. I was in grade school when every morning we exchanged greetings with each other. All I can response is one little smile.
Mrs. …

I see the Packers re-signed former Defensive End Jason Hunter (who will now play linebacker in their new scheme) to his restricted free agent tender. This was a fantastic move for the team.
OK, Hunter isn’t a guy who is going to be a defensive starter or anything and I’m …

A couple years ago when I was attending Sixth Form I kept hearing mention made of someone called “D’Angel” in the Jamaican entertainment media. At that time I did not know who the person was, as I was and still am not the slightest bit interested in the dancehall …

I know I’ve written about Aaron Rodgers before and, if you’ve read those reviews, you know I’m an optimistic fan of his.
But, I overheard someone the other day trashing Rodgers and saying the Green Bay Packers playoff hopes are dead because of Brett Favre’s retirement. And, I have to …

I’m not sure what to think about Arnold Schwarzenegger. At first glance he is an amazing success story. He came to America and built himself an empire investing all the money he made bodybuilding into stocks and bonds.
As an actor I like him very much. In …

I consider myself to be a casual fan of Jaclyn Smith, who is best know as being one of the original Charlie’s Angels. It’s the show that shot her to fame. She’s a very beautiful, polite, and intelligent woman. She was the real down to earth …

I see NFL tight end Randy McMichael has managed to land with the San Diego Chargers on a one-year deal. Of course, when I read that, I also found myself almost totally uninterested.
A few years ago, McMichael was a free agent and the talk around Wisconsin was about how …

When the Tennessee Titans drafted Vince Young 3rd overall a couple years ago, it was praised as a great move. Even then, I had my doubts. While NFL teams often drool over quarterbacks who have the ability to scare defenses with their feet, more often than not they turn …

As I sit here watching an episode of Bonanza, I am once again reminded of how tragic it is that ego sometimes interferes with life. Ego is all to often a representation of thinking you’re superior and of believing that you are above something. Such is the …

I see the New Orleans Saints are signing cornerback Mike McKenzie. That’s an interesting move but it’s one that definitely makes some sense.

I have been watching everything that has to do with Tyler Perry. He is a well known actor, writer, and producer that has really come a long way. Before being known for what he does best he was homeless and had to live in his car for time and …

Candice Woodcook is currently on Survivor Heroes Vs Villains and to be honest I haven’t seen anything heroic come out of her yet.
She is pretty but boring.
She seems to lack drive and is uncomfortable making decisions for fear of making the wrong decision.
On her season of Survivor she was …

When I hear people say that they can’t cook it makes me laugh. Why? Because if one says one can’t cook it actually means that one can’t read. With all cooking books today it is quite impossible not to be able to cook. I understand that one doesn’t like …

The other evening I was watching a show from the late 50’s of What’s My Line, and Tony Randall was the mystery guest. Watching him just reminded me of the huge talent that he was.
Tony Randall had a tremendous knack for comedy. He had timing and style. …

I think both Josh Duhamel and Fergie make a really fine pair and they are both awesome and beautiful people. Josh has this serious and brooding look, while Fergie is all about fun and dandy. So, I think they both suit each other.
Josh is an actor and Fergie …

An actress who I’ve always found to be relatively interesting is Charlize Theron. This is based upon stories I’ve heard of her personal life, a couple interviews I’ve seen with her, especially one with Oprah and a couple of roles she’s played as an actress. Most of all, I …

I met Arlo Guthrie, in my home town, Eureka, CA, just a couple of years ago. If you do not know who this is, or if you were born too late to appreciate WHO he is, let me fill you in! In the 60’s, Arlo Guthrie was a VERY …

Look, I know Bulger hasn’t been having a great season and has been showing signs of decline for a while. But, name one other quarterback …

I do not miss Oprah’s popular talk show on my T.V. every friday. These shows normally discuss many emotional topics and samples peoples’ views and openions which are very educative. I have watched her show quite recently which talks about marriages and their problems. Resource persons were invited …
