Kal-El AKA Clark Kent AKA Superman AKA AWESOME!!!

You knew this was coming, Pete. I’ve seen Man of Steel twice already. I will see it at least one more time before I’m done. It’s that awesome. So this is my super-spoiler-y review, not of the movie (but no promises), but of the character himself. And if you haven’t seen the movie yet, get […]

New Heaven Falls Blog – CHECK IT OUT!

So, in the midst of all the heroes and villains, DMFRHs and random stuff, you might have missed I wrote a book. I’m actually writing a series (whaddya know about that?!) that deals with Angels and mankind and God and ideas of faith, obedience, free will vs choice, and love and duty. Heavy stuff, huh? […]

Hero Highlight: IRON MAN

Guess what I found? A posting schedule! Yeah, funny things, those pesky schedules, they actually tell you what you’re supposed to post and when. Never been a schedule fan so bear with me. If you remember back a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, we were, for the first and probably the […]

Guess Who’s Back!

I’m going to Hell. I already know it. A couple times on this very blog I’ve mentioned what I think is the funniest thing I have ever seen: a handicapped hockey game. I know it’s wholly inappropriate. I know it sets a horrible example for my kids. I know I’m going to have to do […]

Use Your Resources!

I’m a lot of things: I’m smart, I’m funny, I have a brilliant smile and, of course, I’m humble. And I’m human. I have a couple foibles, a couple things that make me slightly less than the perfect homo sapien I was designed to be (I did mention that humility thing, right?). I procrastinate (terribly). […]

So long Old Friend

Tough day, boys and girls. Today I had to say goodbye to my sidekick and faithful companion, Rocky the WonderDog. Cancer and some other neurological stuff got the best of him. It’s too hard for me to say everything he was and everything I’ll miss. I’ll just say he was a good boy. Yes he [...]

Day 8: HAWKEYE #atozchallenge

One of my favorite exchanges in the Avengers comes when Tony Stark is talking to Captain America and he says, “Following’s not really my style.” Cap responds with, “And you’re all about style?” And Tony says, “Of the people in this room, which one of us is a) wearing a spangly outfit and b) not [...]

Day 7: Carl Grimes #atozchallenge

I never do spoiler alerts. Ever. I figure if you don’t want to know what happens in a movie or TV show, don’t drop by somebody’s blog when they’re talking about it. Duh. However, this one time, I’m giving you fair warning: if you haven’t seen Season 3 of The Walking Dead or you might [...]

Day 6: FOGHORN LEGHORN #atozchallenge

I admit that I struggled with a likely subject for F. I only know a few heroes that start with the mighty 6th letter—I went over the Flash (whose comic I never read. I mean he only ran fast. LAME), then to ol’ Twinkle Toes himself, Fred Flintstone but I was never a Flintstones fan. [...]

Day 5: ET #atozchallenge

I’ve missed a lot of things in my day. Trains. Planes. Taxis. Recitals (only a couple). TV Shows. Dinner. Plenty of things. I, however, have never missed my ride off an entire freaking planet because I was fucking with a flower. When I was a kid, ET was an awesome, touching, magical experience about a [...]
