Pseudolus: Very good! Can you say "Titus the tailor told ten tall tales to Titania the titmouse"?

I had to block someone on FACEBOOK today.

I posted a story from the military equivalent of THE ONION and someone started lecturing me about how much of an idiot I was. Three times I asked him to stop and the third time, I blocked him.

sigh, I hate blocking people.

Does that mean you missed Sharknado 5 and the whole

SharknadoThon today?

How about the new episode of GoT?

The Towing Inferno has a lot of good old Hollywood.

The credits on Paul Newman and Steve McQueen took some working out.

So the one on the left is at the lower left corner of the credits page and the one on the right is in the upper right corner.

Yes to the older Poseidon Adventure too. But, not in lieu of the Sharknado 5 premiere.

I think they killed off Cassie Scerbo / Nova. :(

I watched a few episodes of GAME OF THRONES and lost interest. I keep up on it because a few friends talk constantly about it. It just wasn't what I enjoyed in a story.

The original POSEIDON ADVENTURE was overrated and I was disappointed in it. Lots of yelling and fighting and bickering between one-dimensional characters. That was annoying. I've seen better disaster movies over the years.

The TOWERING INFERNO still works as drama without being too dated.

EARTHQUAKE, however, suffers with age.

But all that is another discussion

What to family Death Threats, Restraining Orders, and a pack of Chihuahuas have in common?

Easy - Judge Judy.

I joke that my 4pm hour is the "Judge Judy Hour" and today, I glanced at the program description and found that combination of incongruous silliness.

"Cap Day" at the baseball game is not to be confused with "Jacket-Off Day" at where they have all the men assemble on the field and take their Jackets Off...

Today -- OGLAF is particularly bizarre with two panels to hit the punch line.

It's about an axe murderer who shoves his axe handle up his ass and kills people.

They are so delightfully warped.

I love that punch line: "Hear Ye! Hear Ye! ... "

The three panel extravaganza of "100 tiny eyes" sold me on OGLAF forever.
