So You Think You Can Dance - 6-10-09
Tonight was the first round of the top twenty of So You Think You Can Dance, and I’m going to start with the judges. I really like Nigel. I think he’s fair, and he tries. Mary Murphy is very knowledgeable, but she needs to calm down. …
Smurf Shoot
The SCA, or Society for Creative Anachronism, has quite a few events going in throughout the year to introduce people to the wonders of medieval living. It’s a re-enactment group that spans the entire world, though it’s most prevalent in the United States, and it has a little something …

Karaoke Matsuri icchou
When I first saw this karaoke and it’s really cheap prices I was skeptical, as every time a karaoke has a low price they have any trick, like forcing you to buy a drink that is more expensive than the price of singing an hour. To my surprise, it’s …
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 …
Blue Man Group Las Vegas Show at the Venetian
My husband and I took our children to Blue Man Group in Las Vegas for my son’s birthday. I’d emailed the show directly from their website to see if there was anything special they (the show) could do for his birthday. I was told by the production …
Disney’s World of Color
My family and I attended the World of Color at Disney’s California Adventure Park in July 2010. My family and I love the World of Color. It is a new light show that Disney and it sent chills down our spines, it was that amazing.
The way that Disney …
Republic Nightclub in Chicago
Republic Nightclub in Chicago is relatively new and one of the newest bars in the Weed District. I like the bar for its ambience, but the crowd leaves plenty to be desired. I always feel as if I am back in a bad nightclub in Europe …
Rio Grande Rapids
Rio Grande Rapids is the best ride I’ve ever tried among all the amusement parks I have already visited. You would never mind how you’ll tremendously get wet with all the obstacles you are going to encounter. The ride is so much fun and you can’t resist riding all …
“Oldify 2″ iPhone app
A few weeks ago when I was browsing the iTunes Store for new and interesting apps to download to my iPhone, I came across one called “Oldify 2″. The name of it really caught my eye and I decided to see what it was about. The concept …
The Slipper Room in New York City
If you enjoy sequins, huge feather fans, funny scenarios, quirky and attractive women in the form of an intimate burlesque show then you should check out The Slipper Room in downtown New York City.

PE El Paso nightclub
When I was a little bit younger, still in my party days, a friend invited me to go to a nightclub called PE. They say this is short for Private Expressions. I’d heard about people going to this place before, but had never been myself. I really didn’t like …
High School Musical
So the hype surrounding this musical is everywhere I look. It’s even propelled it’s seemingly unknown cast into superstardom. They have paparazzi following them now and the media is dubbing Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens as the teenage Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. That last statement yields quite a …

Annie Wiggins Ghost Tour
I am reviewing the Annie Wiggins Ghost Tour, which is offered during the weekends at Galena, IL. Tours are $10 and run 1 hour and 15 minutes. The tour immediately is interesting as you meet at a beautiful Victorian mansion. I am a huge Victorian architecture enthusiast, so …
Little Tikes Jump N Slide Dry Bouncer
I saw the Little Tikes Jump N Slide Dry Bouncer in Walmart and thought how clever it was that you could now purchase a bouncer for kids rather than have to rent one from the local hardware store. My daughter had considered purchasing it for the kids when she …
Taboo2 nightclub
I went out with a girlfriend to Taboo2 in Sandy Springs. I went once before, years ago–before it closed. It was reopened as a Mexican club. And then it closed and reopened again as Taboo2. Anyway, I went on a Friday evening when some …
Club Xstatic in Springfield MA
Club Xstatic is one of the worst gay clubs in the whole New England area! This place sucks so much and I had a horrible time there. First off the cover chare on a Saturday night was around $15 when I went! That is a freaking rip off and …

Fun Spot USA - Kissimmee
While living in Kissimmee and working at Disney World, there was not much in the ways of normal entertainment in the area. Mostly tourist attractions, so I tried a place that was right down the street from me. I would see the signs as I traveled down 1-92. It …
Six Flags Theme Park St Louis, MO
On a recent vacation to St. Louis, MO, my family and I spent two days and the theme park Six Flags. What a frusturating ordeal!

Anita Baker Live Performance
It had always been a dream of mine to have the pleasure of witnessing Anita Baker perform, live in concert, as she has always been my absolute favorite soul music artist of all time.
When the opportunity for that dream to come true came around in 2008, I was sure …
Kitten’s strip club in Salisbury MA
I liked this place because it was a little above average in some areas and one of those areas would be the quality of strippers that this place had because almost every stripper they had there were very good looking and they were entertaining. I loved that there was …
Enclave Nightclub in Chicago
Enclave Nightclub in Chicago has been around for so long, but something about it always looks different every time I go. I do like that it is in a very accessible place downtown and easy to get to. The club itself tries to cater and attract an …
Ruby Nightclub Chicago
Ruby Nightclub in Chicago is just the latest club in a string of clubs to fill the same spot, and I think Ruby has done the best job out of the last two to keep a steady string of clientele and provide a great evening of entertainment for anyone …
Club 208 Beaver Dam
I’m not much for going out to dance clubs. But, my wife likes going out with her friends and they need someone to be a designated driver.
Club 208 in downtown Beaver Dam has been owned by several different people under several different names. And, to be honest, while the …

“O” Cirque du Soleil Bellagio

Thunder Down Under show in Las Vegas

Flecther’s Cafe in Waterbury
Fletcher’s Café is a cool gay bar that’s located in Waterbury. The bar is located down a safe street with secure parking and this is good because Waterbury is a scary city and just a dump but Fletcher’s is an awesome club to go and get your drink on …
2008 Swan City Car Show
Normally the annual Father’s Day Car Show at Swan Park in Beaver Dam is a great event to take your family to. However, I have to say this year’s show was a bit of a disappointment.
In past years, nearly every inch of the park would be occupied with classic …

Mooies, entertainment in St. John
Mooies is a bar in Cruz Bay, and it’s one of the first places you’ll see when you get off the ferry in St. John. You probably won’t hear much about it in tourist guides, because I don’t think they really make an effort to advertise. Sometimes …
Sportsville Bar and Sports Lounge Restaurant
With over 48 big screens all over the place, screening all live sporting codes taking place at any given time, Sportsville is one place that left me extremely overwhelmed the first time I went there.
In addition to the many flat screens they have connected to satellite feeds, they …

Singapore Flyer
In United Kingdom, it is called London Eye, but Southeast Asia has its own version in Singapore, it is called Singapore Flyer. Whenever Singapore opens a tourist attraction it is accompanied with nearby entertainment complex so as not to bore tourist when they visit the landmark. I have been …

The Magic Castle Hollywood CA

Disney Epcot, Orlando Fl
Located in Orlando, Florida, Disney Epcot theme park is one of my favourite Disney Parks to visit. Instantly recognisable from it’s gigantic white sphere that sort of looks like a giant golf ball, the park embraces the themes of international culture and technological innovation.
