Movies, Games, and Whatever Else Comes to Mind

  • A Landlocked Ocean

      The ocean is far away and full of hidden surprises. Lake Michigan is not the ocean, but it is vast and full of secrets. Standing on its shoreline, you may as well be gazing across the Pacific. The lake is both gorgeous and terrifying as the water beckons you out to feel its caress,…

  • Winging It: The Flying Experience

    Does anyone care about air travel anymore? People obviously still use it and do so regularly. But does the act of rising off the ground and hurtling through the sky at hundreds of miles per hour still bring any thrill to the passengers? From simple observation, I would say, “no”. I feel the ability to…

  • AFI Top 100: M. Night’s Spooky Movie

    I turn my back on the darkened room and begin walking down the hallway. The room was empty, but something triggers my senses. Goosebumps pop on the back of my neck and start an avalanche down my arms. A chill slides along my spine, and my pace down the hall quickens. I make it to…

  • Good Boys Doing Bad Things

    The black beast roared along the highway. Its headlights cast yellow beams across the dark pavement, piercing the night’s think blackness. Air whipping across the car’s hood could not drown out the engine’s ferocious roar. It was an old model, modified for more power and speed. The car was loud, dark, and it was hunting…

  • Boston at Night

    City skylines are beautiful structures when illuminated at night. I’ve seen a few such as Chicago, London, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, and Philadelphia. The most recent feast for my eyes was Boston. I’ve already written about some of its history, and the old city is an amazingly vibrant part of what makes Boston worth a visit. The…

  • Here’s A Good Movie I Forget About

    Here’s A Good Movie I Forget About

     You know what’s a good movie that I always forget about? Moneyball. Flipping through the ol’ movie collection, I happened upon this gem of Hollywood baseball and thought, “Oh yeah! I’ve been wanting to watch this again. Lucky me, because today is that day.” My brain apparently likes to reward me for stumbling across things…

  • Saturday Morning Cinema: The State of Fast & Furious

    While visiting my daily interweb haunts, I saw this article about the Hobbs & Shaw movie, or the full title Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw, which made me nod my head in agreement at the title alone. Watching the Fast & Furious movies has always been an enjoyable experience, and I get genuinely…

  • Dude, Mountains

    Have you ever just been thinking about those huge piles of rocks cutting through the country and think, in your best stoner voice, “Mountains, man. Mountains.” I tell you what, mountains are absolute wonders when you think about it. Here are these massive, miles high protrusions of Earth’s crust. They have the power to completely…

  • Dominant Personalities That Run The World

    The office environment is not a place for the introverted, the hesitant, and thoughtful. At least, that’s how it often feels. Introverts are those that draw energy from solitude, able to talk to others but not buoyed by the interactions. Hesitant individuals are interrupted and talked over, riders to ideas forced upon them by those…

  • The Old North Church

    As I log off from another hour spent exploring the Commonwealth in Fallout 4 and now sit watching Nicolas Cage go crazy trying to steal the Declaration of Independence, I reminisce about a recent trip to the heart of the American revolution. Boston is a nest of history, full of sights and stories. A visitor’s…
