As part of the new job, I have been given “free” tv. I put free in quotes because I have just a couple of bits I have to pay for, like having a DVR, but I am getting all the equipment, television channels, premiums like HBO and Showtime, all for “free”, so what I...
As part of my new job, I get (essentially) free tv. I say ‘essentially’ because I am paying $30 a month now to have all the channels, including all the premiums like HBO, Cinemax, Showtime and Starz, so – yeah. I have some thoughts on this that I intend to put into a blog...

So, one of the shows that I always get sucked into is Gordan Ramsey’s Kitchen Nightmares. I really didn’t like it at first, but it has grown on me. A lot of times, it reminds me of this restaurant where my mom used to work. It was an Italian place called ‘Luigi’s’. Luigi’s was...

How do I start this? Well, me being me – I guess I have to go back to 1985 and Crisis on Infinite Earths, one of the first, massive crossover events from DC Comics. The Flash – Reborn When you’ve been around as long as DC, you have a lot of characters, a lot...
