Over the years I’ve collected so many of these Thanksgiving “cards” that I can never decide which to use. So I simply use them all. Happy Thanksgiving.Read More →

So, I’m trying out the brand new Age of Mythology: Retold (2024) this week to mixed success. It’s a rerelease of the original Age of Mythology with major upgrades to some of the core mechanics. Basically, it’s the same game but has some new features, mainly to catch it up to today’s technology, I think. And I’m not sure I like it. Or, maybe, I’m just having trouble getting used to the new setup. We’ll see. For literally years, Age of Mythology (2002) from Ensemble Studies & Microsoft has been my all-time favorite game to play on the computer. Seriously, bar none, this is theRead More →

Have you ever reread a book that you enjoyed and wondering why you don’t remember half of it? I’m rereading Hot and Badgered before diving into In A Badger Way and seriously wondering if I was asleep when I read it the first time because there are huge chunks of it that I honestly don’t remember. And yet I remember the broad outline of what happens.  So I know I read it…. didn’t I?Read More →

In A Badger Way by Shelly Laurenston came out today and I bought it on ebook the second I woke up. I only realized yesterday the hero was Shen Li, the panda shifter from Bite Me. I think my brain just exploded. I honestly never thought she’d give Shen his own book. Also, this definitely means I get more Vic for sure & possibly Livy from my top favorite in the Pride series, Bite Me. Double yah! Now back to reading. Read More →

I’ve always preferred DC Comics but there is no denying that Stan Lee was a comic book creative genius his entire career. He will be missed by all comic book fans.  Around 10 minutes long but still an enjoyable watch:  And finally for more information about his life and death:  Stan Lee, the comic book mastermind who changed the landscape of the superhero genre by creating countless beloved characters, has died at age 95. An attorney for Lee’s daughter, J.C. Lee, said the creative dynamo who revolutionized the comic world by introducing human frailties in superheroes such as Spider-Man, The Fantastic Four and The IncredibleRead More →

Over the weekend I started re-watching my DVDs of Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman. It’s been several years since I actually watched them and I was curious whether they would hold up. Wow. Just watching Terri Hatcher and Dean Cain interact as Lois & Clark is still a joy to behold. Those two have unbelievable chemistry. Yes, I said have because I saw a Comic-con interview of them from 2018 or 2019 and it’s still there. 25 years later. Oh, there are other TV series that I loved before and after but Lois & Clark is special to me for a lotRead More →

I’ve been winding down from a difficult week for the last two nights by rewatching The Mummy trilogy, which isn’t actually a trilogy but more a double feature of The Mummy and The Mummy Returns with an added spin-off of The Scorpion King. If you haven’t seen them, romance fans, treat yourself someday because it is all there – adventure, mystery, fantasy and real romance. Okay, mystery may be a stretch so call it suspense if you want but it’s all in one very nice package in all three movies minus the blood and gore traditionally associated with horror or action/adventure films. The Mummy isRead More →
