Entertainment Reviews
Whiskey River Saloon
I normally avoid bars that are a part of a chain, but a recent experience at Whiskey River Saloon has me reconsidering this stance. I visited Whiskey River on a Wednesday night and had a fantastic experience.
This bar had many positive aspects. First of all, there was …
DVD Xpress Movie Rental Kiosk
I like to watch movies especially because I don’t waste my money on cable or satellite TV. I used to rent from blockbuster, but was tired of the high prices for a one night rental. I then started renting from the Redbox and was happy with it. I didn’t …
Vancouver Zoo
My biggest complaint about zoos has always been that they seem to cater to the business of entertaining visitors, sometimes to the detriment of the animals; many zoos I have visited over the years did not have ample room for the animals, especially the big animals. I visited the …
Disney On Ice: World Of Fantasy
Last Saturday, my husband and I watched Disney On Ice. It all started when I saw the advertisement on television. Since I have always been a fan of Disney stuff-shows, merchandise, etc, I checked out ticketmaster.com to see how much the tickets are. The cheapest is $15.
The day …
Columbia Club, Indianapolis, IN
Historically an exclusive members-only club, the Columbia club has opened it’s doors to the public. Last weekend I had the pleasure of attending a rehearsal dinner in one of the restaurants.
From the moment we exited our car onto the red carpet beneath the canopy, I could tell this …
Pirate’s Dinner Adventure
I am usually not a huge fan of dinner theatre, but while traveling in Kissimmee, Florida, I attended a great interactive dinner show that I greatly enjoyed. My friends had made the reservations ahead of time, so we got to the theatre in Orlando, and we were seated and …
Singapore Underwater world
My trip to Underwater World Singapore was fun. The admission fee is $22.90. I felt the cost was worthwhile. I saw brightly colored corals and exotic ocean dwellers (including moray eels, sea dragons and jelly fishes) Furthermore, I even have the chance to touch and feel the stingray myself …
Vain Nightclub in Chicago
I have had the chance to go to Vain Nightclub a couple times to meet with friends for the evening or hang out for a friend’s birthday. I enjoy the club a lot because I have found that the clientele there is a lot older than other …
July 1st Fireworks and Rib Fest

2008 Swan Park Craft Fair
While my wife and I might not have enjoyed the annual Lake Days event, there is one event held the same weekend in Beaver Dam that is usually pretty decent; the annual Swan Park Craft Fair.
And, while the event probably isn’t among my favorites (I’m not usually a person …

Whisky A Go Go, West Hollywood
The Whisky A Go Go is a rock ‘n’ roll night club located on Sunset Strip in West Hollywood, California. Over the years, they have had many impressive bands and performers play shows there. While I was in Los Angeles, there was a cool event called Crue …
Centerville Super Speeddway
I love dirt track racing. The guys that race their cars at the small hometown tracks are the heart and soul of stock car racing. I feel that it is sad when these small town tracks are owned by people who don’t care about the sport, all they …
Elektra by World in Theatre (Singapore)
In January 2005, I got to attend a very unique production. It was Euripides’ Elektra, performed by an Indian dance troupe, World in Theatre. The performance was at the Esplanade (The Esplanade Co Ltd, 1 Esplanade Drive, Singapore 038981), and was produced by V. Subramaniam.
The play was translated …
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.
This burlesque show is off the beaten path. Located in the lower east side of Manhattan. …
Queens Ice and Bowl, Bayswater, London Horrible Experience
This weekend my partner’s sister came to visit us in London. The three of us decided to go ice-skating on Sunday. My partner is not a huge ice-skating fan and for that reason only, we have chosen to go to The Queens Ice and Bowl.
We phoned the place …

Six Flags over Georgia to me is a very fun, exciting place to visit and I can spend hours there having fun. I have been there several times over the years and am never disappointed.
Six Flags over Georgia is one of the prettiest amusement …
Dolly Parton Concert
I went to the Dolly Parton concert at Casino Rama in Orillia on November 21st and I was so impressed with her performance. She makes you wish you could just sit down and talk with her for a while and share some of that ‘down home’ feel that she …

F1 in Fuji, Japan
I caught F1 race in Fuji, Japan on TV. This is actually for the Grand Prix and it was a very entertaining watch. My whole family was on a vacation mode on that day and we amused ourselves by watching this race.
It was a super fun watch and …
Six Flags Over St. Louis
I have always loved amusement parks since I was a little girl. I would get exicted whenever we planned a family vacation and could not sleep the night before we went to the park. Six Flags Over St. Louis (or Six Flags over mid-America) was not different. …
Monster Golf
Monster Golf is an indoor mini golf course and arcade located in a plaza. I have been there a few times because it is a unique way to have some fun. This place is fun especially if you are teenager or a pre-teen.
As you can tell …
Chuck E. Cheese
This is a great place to take the kids, and much cheaper then an amusement park (or even the Zoo, in my experience). It’s safer too.
As you walk in, there is a “kid check point”. Children aren’t allowed in, without an adult. You and your child(ren) …
House of Magic London
“Somewhere in a secret location in South London..” - well, at least if you are not familiar with the area, to find the House of Magic can be a bit tricky (it’s in the back of Kennington underground station, on 9 Chapter Road, for those who do), but that …
Wildboys Show Club - Tucson, AZ
As much as it pains me to admit I have been inside such an establishment, this is a review of Wildboys, an all-male strip club located in Tucson, AZ. I was dragged to Wildboys in 2004 as part of a bachelorette party; as a bridesmaid, I couldn’t say no! …
Knoebel’s Amusement Resort Elysburg PA
Knoebel’s Amusement Resort in Elysburg, PA, holds many cherished childhood memories for me. It is a magical place with rides, fantastic foods, concerts and shows, a wonderful carnival atmosphere.
One of the *huge* turns-ons is the food! I remember having some of the best foods I ever tasted at …
Kennywood Amusement Park
Kennywood is the place for family fun. Kennywood is located in Pittsburgh, PA on PA 837. The park is gorgeous. I have been to many amusement parks, but this park is still my favorite. It is a National Historic Landmark with beautiful sights. Regardless …

Discovery Centre, Halifax
I remember going to this place when I was young. It is basically a hands-on museum for kids. It’s a good idea, and they have a lot there for the kids to do, but it leaves something to be desired. When you walk in and pay your admission, you …
Dutch Wonderland Lancaster PA
If you are looking for something to do with children this summer, think about taking them to Dutch Wonderland. They have several different amusement rides, games, and shows for the little ones to enjoy. I’m not a parent, but I recently went with my two year-old neice and my …
The Hippodrome club in Springfield
The Hippodrome club in Springfield is one big massive dump in the middle of the city! This place sucks so bad and I am telling you this right now that the Hippodrome is trashy and disgusting so stay away from that place.
The Hippodrome is real big on the …
Natchez PowWow
The PowWow is a cool place to go. My family goes to this event every year. It’s a Native American Indian traditional festival. It has lots of food & shopping booths, filled with tee-shirts beaded projects and weapons. You can also buy music and toys. Native Americans from all …

Oaklawn Farm Zoo
This is a small zoo on a rural, farm setting in the Annapolis Valley in Nova Scotia, Canada. It is a very nice zoo, and although it is not home to animals you may often see in zoos, such as giraffes, elephants or kangaroos, it is still a great …
Georgia Aquarium
My best friend came to visit me from out of town and wanted to visit the Georgia Aquarium. I had never been to the aquarium, so I thought it sounded like fun.
I must say upon arriving at the aquarium I was very impressed with the building. The …
Lee Evans - XL Tour 2005 Live - DVD
Lee Evans, a comedian I first became aware of one night when really down and this guy came on and he just had me in complete stitches.

American Idol
Ok. I am a loyal fan of American Idol. But this year, 2008, I am noticing that there are several folks that seem planted in the competition. They have had previous recording history before and there is more than one. Like Carly Smithson from Ireland. They are making such …
BET Awards 2009
Unfortunately Michael Jackson died right before the airing of this program. I will go ahead and give the people putting this thing together the benefit of the doubt. The woman heading up BET mentioned during the program that it took lots of last minute doing …
Magical Kingdom Orlando, Fl

National Mississippi River Museum and Aquarium
I am reviewing the National Mississippi River Museum and Aquarium, located in Dubuque, IA. This museum has a little something for everyone, but I would recommend it highly for parents with children. There are six large aquariums, featuring frogs, otters, turtles, and fish. In addition, there …
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 …
The Femme Fatale Tour (Britney Spears)
I went to her Anaheim show on June 24th. I love her Femme Fatale album and I could not wait to see her live in person. I heard so many marvelous reviews about this tour and some even called it one of her best. I cannot wait. So then …
