Vanessa Hudgens
I have a lot of mixed feelings about Vanessa Hudgens. She is gorgeous and she has amazing style. She is super cute in all of the High School Musical films and they somehow made her voice sound decent on the High School Musical soundtrack. I do not know why …

2008 Beaver Dam Lake Days
When you read about Beaver Dam Lake Days, you would think it was a family friendly event that everyone would enjoy. However, in my opinion at least, the annual event seems to offer less and less each year though your pocket book probably wouldn’t be able to tell the …
Monk Season 8 Finale
If you’re a fan of Mr Adrian Monk, then better not watch the last two episodes of the series. It’s not that the story was bad, it’s because it will hurt saying goodbye to a very good series.
The last two episodes tackle the story of the biggest mystery in …
Studio Fun Nazareth, PA

Harlem Globetrotters
I haven’t seen the Harlem Globetrotters perform since I was a kid and, with many of the originals now retired, I questioned how the team could go on performing the same way it did.

Karaoke Matsuri icchou

Pursuit of Happyness
This wasn’t Will Smith’s best performance, certainly not compared to the dramatic fireworks of say, Fresh Prince of Belair. That’s unfair. The movie wasn’t terrible, in fact, it wasn’t even bad. The hype before the movie, the promotion, the talk shows, all led you to believe that this might …

I caught a national tour performance of the Billy Joel/Twyla Tharp show “Movin’ Out” - originally a Broadway production, this show’s national tour is pretty new.
