Although I first encountered science fiction while digging through my father’s bookshelves as a child, he first discovered tales of distant worlds, strange beasts, and unusual scientific “discoveries” through his family’s radio. Before television radio dramas and serials were what family time was all about and science fiction was a popular topic for these […]

I first heard the name Cesc Fabregas when he played for Spain in the 2006 World Cup. He’s since gone on to not only become a key player for Arsenal, but now he’s got his own television show as well. Yes, you could say the boy’s on fire, and according to this video […]

As y’all know I was on vacation last week so obviously didn’t make it down to Los Angeles for the May 9th premiere of Frontier(s). However if I hadn’t already had those major plans I would have been all over the opportunity not only because it looks like a solid flick, but also […]

Yesterday was the big day - Super Bowl Sunday. The day that all Americans set aside to gather their friends, order pizza, stock up on beer and circle the wide screen TV to partake in that all-American pastime - the new Super Bowl television commercials! I’ve never been a football fan (or a […]
