In Celebration - Legit Reviews: The word "celebration" is in the title, but playwright David Storey uses it with a bitter undertow -- so much so that only the most idealistic and commercially foolhardy of producers would countenance reviving his 1969 homecoming drama unless armed with some armor-plated casting. Enter Orlando Bloom.... Live-In Maid (Cama adentro) - Film Reviews: A live-in maid leaves the pretentious employer who can no longer pay her.... Back to the Grind - TV Front Reviews: Strictly as a reality concept, TV Land's "Back to the Grind" is both misguided and a little sad, asking actors to try their hand at jobs they pretended to hold in classic series -- from Marla Gibbs ("The Jeffersons") working as a "housekeeping supervisor" to "Night Court's" Harry Anderson sitting in as a judge. ... Nellie McKay - Music Reviews: Nellie McKay has an album coming out this fall, but her show at Largo on Thursday night exhibited none of the angst or drama that accompanied her 2005 Troubadour show, where she railed against her label, Sony, and the music industry in general, over how "Pretty Little Head" would be released....

My invention is the GRAVITY SCREEN which I'm sure many would find useful. For example, placing the gravity screen on the sidewalk in front of your house - allowing your mother-in-law to walk on it - will screen her from the earth's gravity field. Giving her a nudge with a broom handle will send her off to parts unknown if you think beforehand to put glue on the gravity screen which will hold it firmly to her shoes.

Thomson and Thompson the Bumbling Detectives From Tintin - The Tintin movie has led to much speculation about Tintin.

Most of the material has been in my head but in the last few years I have been writing my thoughts down on paper.... My Uncle Bill - Of course, Dad had his own version of what happened. He said about midnight Bill would push the covers back real slow then lift one knee then the other then turn around to the side and place one foot on the floor then the other then stand up and start across the floor. The floor would creak and someone would say, "What was that?" And uncle Bill would stop and grab his hip and say, "Oh my back, my back, oh my back. And Dad said he would come back into bed and the night would go on. But it's a good bet that uncle bill made it over to aunt Vena's bed more than once, because him and aunt Vena had two kids while they were living under the roof with grandpa.... Maine Humor - Speaking of that elegant misery, one winter's day I was walking past the Bangor Library and an elderly gentleman was walking toward me. We had been enjoying one of those long stretches of gray cloudy weather that goes on for days and sometimes even weeks in the winter, as the Eagles song, "Desperado" says, "It's hard to tell the night time from the day." The elderly curmudgeon was bundled up in a heavy winter coat and a heavy hat with ear muffs. All that was visible was his red lined face, but that was enough to tell me that he was not a happy man. The scowl on his face and the way his shoulders were hunched as he pushed his way up the sidewalk made me think, "Here is a man who has mastered suffering."... A Small Murphy's - Maybe - The 'Baby' bet is the absolute certainty - it only goes down on rare occasions. The 'Sporty' is the one that looked good in the beginning, but on closer reflection - it could really go either way. The 'Ginger' is the loose punt you only consider after a few pints. The 'Posh' is the all-in mug's bet, where you end up living on bread and water for a week, and the 'Scary' is a complete guess, like when Mel B reached the 'father's section' on her daughter's birth certificate.... The King Is In The All Together, The All Together, The All Together, The King - Lingerie is part of a rich tapestry of history in which underwear has played a formative role. The underwear of King Charles I on a cold morning in late January 1649 probably saved the British monarchy. Grievances against the king's government had grown over the course of his reign resulting in rebellion in ... Flaming Arrow - In the kingdom of childhood, every kid performs a role that distinguishes them from the other children in the neighborhood hierarchy. Younger brother Joe was master in two distinct areas as the lead scavenger and weapons expert.... Old Farts & Computers - Part 2 "In The Beginning,..." - For me, the beginning came the day I decided I needed to work for myself. I wanted to pick something that I enjoyed doing, and just find a way to go out there, and do it for myself. (Easier said than done.) As I began looking around, more & more I realized that the best way to accomplish my goal, was on this great unknown called "The Web". (Which of course, was attached to an old dread of mine, the COMPUTER.)... Almost America's Most Wanted - This how other people on drugs have been lurking around my existence on this earth creating strange situations for me. This was especially true as this was the only time I steeped out of a band rehearsal and had over 15 guns pointed at me. It wasn't the fault of anyone except a druggie on a binge.

Colorful Characters - Several years ago, I worked with a young man that was a bit eccentric. He was very fond of tattoos and body piercings.

He thought that was a grand idea, and was very much looking forward to the day when he could.... Survey Says More People Would Vote for Paris Hilton than John Edwards - There is a phrase often used with publicity and promotional experts and that is; All News is Good News.

A Chick With a Pick - 'The bra-burning remains a point of contention amongst the modern day collection of men-haters, but the fact that these freedom-fighters went on hunger strike to promote their cause is a recorded fact; although they may have just wanted to lose a bit of weight in order to catch a husband.'...

A Conference Call Guide for the Jekylls and the Hydes - You can't be an office worker and not know what a conference call is.

Conference calls fall under the bracket of social interaction. As such, there are rules of etiquette that have to be followed.... Cut Your Smoking - But Not in Half! - Sigmund Freud once said, "Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar." Any self-respecting cigar smoker, however, will tell you that a cigar is far less a cigar when the correct arts are not applied to the preparation of the cigar and the execution of the act itself. The first act in the ritual is cutting the cigar cap, and the best way to do this is with a table top cigar cutter. The cap is the part that you put in your mouth. It is formed by the outer wrapper leaves twisted down over the end of the cigar to stop it from falling apart. It must be cut clean so you can draw the full flavor and aroma from the cigar.... We Have To Stop The Blubber Ring - Call me a non-conforming malcontent, but I wholeheartedly disagree with the concept of marriage.

Registered Nuts-Psych 101 - Life in the ER from a Registered BURNOUT.... An Astrological Interview - Did you know that astrology is now an approved course in many universities worldwide? So it is now possible to get degree holders in astrology similar to other courses like MBA, MS, PhD, etc. Now businessmen will be able to hire astrologers in their organizations, and this is no laughing matter for rationalists. This is because astrology is more accurate than business predictions and forecasts. The probability of a traditional business prediction, market analysis or profit forecast coming true is only about 15% to 20%, whereas an astrological prediction can be as accurate as 70% to 100% and can be predicted years and even decades in advance. So just have a look at how a candidate with an astrological background can be of use in any organization....

Starbucks - Drinking In the Regularity - Well, I resisted it for some time, but now it's official: I am a Starbucks regular. This morning, for the first time, before I could shout out my order, the barista behind the counter recognized me and asked, "venti regular?" For those of you not familiar with the Starbucks jargon, venti translates to large, grande to medium, and tall to small. Tall to small? I'll leave the jokes about the absurdity of the Starbucks menu to 2nd rate stand-up comedians and simply tell you that you CAN order an even smaller cup called a "short," not listed on the menu. It's a little smaller, a little cheaper, and still packs more caffeine than any individual needs in a week....

These things make the World Wide Web great, but most of us prefer to use the Web for passing time and having fun.
