Don't blame Me for Sun Drop not catching on. I bought it when it came out and liked it. Though I've cut back on soda/pop/Coke whatever you want to call it these last couple years. I can't drink it too often at my age and with my metabolism. It just fills me up and becomes gut fat in seconds. Its depressing because I'm…

Frank and Helen's is fantastic. One of my favorite places of all. Fortel's is good, but I haven't had it in a long time. Never had Dewey's—when I'm home, I want St. Louis style pizza Only—-and while I've heard good things about Pi, again, it isn't St. Louis style, so I skip it. I miss Ponticello's. They had the…

I went to Bojangles for the first time myself in Charlotte back in October, at the airport. I had eaten non-fast food my whole time there for work, but I had heard about the wonders of Bojangles on Thrillist and other places here on the Internet. I saw people who were coming to the event I was working at getting it in…

I knew someone would bring the 1986 Mets up. They were crazy, but were they as Fun? Did the 1986 Mets ever disguise themselves as painters and shut down an entire hotel lobby and then run out like Dizzy, Paul/"Daffy", and Pepper Martin-"The Wild Hoss of the Osage" did during the season? Did they ever put sneezing…

It wasn't just that Medwick had done that—(although that was the final straw to Tigers fans), he had also shelled the Tigers that entire series hitting the ball all over the park and especially in that game. Judge Landis claimed he pulled Medwick for his own safety—the only time this has ever happened. When asked…

Its a shame more people don't recognize that quote is from Dizzy Dean and remember that "Gashouse Gang" Cardinals team. My grandfather loved them. They were full of characters and were probably the funniest and most fun World Series champs of all time. As I recall, the way Dizzy said it was: "It ain't bragging if you…

Another great RR @willharrisinva:disqus. I concur with others in saying "Stories I Only Tell My Friends" , his autobiography, is well worth reading. It balances nicely inside stories from on set with regrets and internal reflection and personal life stories. The stories from the set of THE OUTSIDERS alone are worth…

I got them both from my school library too and checked them both out numerous times. Back then when I was 12, I liked the GREEK one more, because the Olympians were immortal, and the Aesir being mortal made them seem much weaker to me. The Olympians were more powerful and that impressed me. As I got older I saw how…

Its cool that L'il Punk is a little young for NORSE. When he's a bit older, I bet the two of you will enjoy it together. I've never read TROLLS before. Sounds good. Thanks!

You're getting things a little mixed up, but its understandable since it all happens at Ragnarok. Odins son Vidar will step forward and rip Fenris jaws apart with his boot on its lower jaw, and gripping the upper jaw, after it swallows his father. Then he stabs Fenris thru the heart with his spear. Thor will kill the…

Oh, I figured it was a joke. I just thought it would be fun to add that "Spoilers". Its all good. :-)

Right. Sorry. I edited my comment.

I'm extremely interested in this, but if you're looking for a somewhat sanitized version that has outstanding illustrations that you can share with younger children, there's D'Aulaire's Book of Norse Myths. I read that myself back in 6th grade and its what got me interested in Norse myths beyond what I was seeing in…

Yes. Loki's three children by the ogress Angerboda are The Midgards Serpent-Jormangdr, Hel, and Fenris. SPOILERS:…for myths thousands of years old:

Exactly. He's been incredibly careful and kept his theatre roots. That being said, he isn't above being ridiculous and poking fun at it, as in SOAPDISH (a hilarious movie and performance by the entire ensemble) where he's doing DEATH OF A SALESMAN in a Florida dinner theater. When he's talking with Robert Downey Jr.…

Hollywood studios never knew what to make of Kevin Kline. The guy wins an Oscar and then goes back to New York to do Hamlet, Richard the III, Chekov plays, and more theatre. It made them think he was crazy and ungrateful to the Industry.

I've always thought the opening sequence set to "Heard It Through The Grapevine" cutting between the Friends and the dressing of what we find out is Alex's body is pretty much perfect. It has a few missteps, but when it works….it works.

Practically anyone but fucking Sam Worthington! He's the most bland actor in the world. Ugh. I read an interview with him in a magazine years ago, and it made me hate him so much I wrote a letter to them and they published it. He's an ungrateful, untalented, and obnoxious person and lousy actor.

You're right on about PERCEPTION. I enjoyed every episode I watched and thought it did such an admirable job of showing how his character had to use many different methods: medication, support of friends, hired help, counseling, to be able to function. I also thought he and the shows writers did a great job of being…

I understand WHY it was made the way it was, because it had to reflect the trial and in the trial, Ron was tragically lost in the shuffle at points. Even by the prosecution. It doesn't make it any less tragic for the Goldman family. I just feel terrible for them.
