    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    You can call us Aaron Burr from the way we’re droppin’ Hamiltons -Lazy Sunday, Chris Parnell and Andy Samberg (pretty much the entire song really) And my time is a piece of wax, fallen on a termite That’s choking on the splinters -Loser, Beck The kids couldn’t hurt Jack They...

    Laughs, when you can't stop

    I find it worse with friends because I can't stop laughing then and start to risk suffocation. I don't mind hysterically laughing around unknown people - they don't know me anyways. Around friends I have plenty of laughing fits. Once I was laughing so much a friend thought I was drunk when I...

    Becoming Jane

    I watched this when it came out in England. It's an okay, watchable film. James McAvoy was about the only thing that kept me interested in it though (and just in a shallow way). Mansfield Park (not the new one, but the 1999 one) is leaps and bounds better, and from what I understand has...

    Uninvited guests

    lol That's too funny! One evening I was roasting marshmallows over an eternal memorial flame in a park (oh, that sounds so wrong - it was an, um, tribute?). When my friends and I packed up our stuff and started to walk away, we noticed that we had a "friend" following us. We were stalked...

    Uninvited guests

    Skunk conference Thankfully the last two places I lived at never had much of a bug/small rodent problem. Although ladybugs did get a bit annoying at the last place I lived. I'd toss them out the window because I didn't want to squish ladybugs. Two years ago the uninvited guests were of the...

    My Favorite Ancestor Photo

    My great grandparents, my grandpa, and my great aunt in the 1930s. I never knew any of them well, so I'm not sure how much this picture embodies them. It is my favorite ancestor photo though. There is something humble, yet dignified about the four of them. Hard working traveling folks -...

    Cincinnati a mecca for lovers of art deco

    I was in Cincinnati a few weeks ago and decided to go have a look at Union Terminal. Union Terminal is gorgeous. I have some shots of the interior, which I'll upload and post later. The terminal is now a museum complex. I went to the Cincinnati History Museum, where they had a...

    Modern Ad Design

    When I was still out in Colchester I saw a few Stella Artois billboards. They stood out to me because of their bold old time design. Although the design is reflective of an older style, it appears a lot fresher next to most of today's billboards. I really like the dark colors.

    Apartment necessities

    That's a very good question to consider. As much as I've been tempted to invest in household goods, I've resisted since I move around so much. The few things I've purchased often aren't able to make the move with me. Since I haven't bought anything I can't part with, it usually isn't too...

    First Movie

    When I visited my grandpa's cousin last week I grilled him on what he knew about my relatives and ancestors that had passed away. In the end I didn't learn too much about them, but I did get some interesting tidbits about him. I especially enjoyed hearing about his trips to visit my great...

    Transformers... how about it?

    That's pretty much how I felt about the film too.

    Awesome family info!!!

    Very cool! I've only heard two stories about my Civil War era ancestors. The Ohio River separates Ohio (Union) from Kentucky (Confederate). There was a Confederate officer who would parade his soldiers on the Kentucky side of the river. My ancestor supposedly said that if that officer...

    Establishing Shot - NYC

    Broadway Melody (1929): And if I remember right, Dead End (1937) starts with an establishing shot of NYC (although I think it's a very theatrical set looking skyline and not so much an actual shot). Also, maybe not quite what you're looking for, but the Lullaby of Broadway number in...
