    Names Of Love

    Aaah, pet names... I have a penchant for tacking simplistic and sometimes painfully descriptive names on everything and everyone (except the family and very close friends, for some reason). In the friends and acquaintances department there's The Big Man, The Old Guy, The Reverend, Brother...

    How Was Your Day?

    AAARGH! Well, I just came out of a 2 week grouchy streak that got started by a lousy return to school. Awful teachers, useless courses, foiled plans and not a single conversation to be had that didn't involve getting splifficated, to name a few annoyances. On top of that I got locked out of my...

    How Were Your Times Growing Up?

    And so here I am, a quasi-millenial. The manufacture date on my chassis indicates that I was born in the days of Rubik's Cube, Miami Vice, Michael Jackson, the Challenger, the Exxon Valdez and Chernobyl. Luckily I was blissfully unaware of the world around me until 1990, when bliss was tied up...

    Artists in Film

    Mine means "manly", and most appropriately, had a peak in the 20's..... the other name, I fear was most popular in the 90's.

    Fred Astaire + Ginger Rogers

    I love Astaire-Rogers films. I got the first set on my 19th birthday and it's wonderful. Even though it's not on the set, my favourite film of the series has to be The Gay Divorcee. If it weren't for the reel markers I would've never guessed that The Continental ran 20 minutes! (A good chunk of...
