Font Clock

This clock, designed by Sebastian Wrong (really his name!) is excellent not only for its style, but because it’s a freakin’ FLIP CLOCK! Sweet!

Glengarry Glen Ross (film)

I watched the film adaptation of Glengarry Glen Ross last night - I won’t go in depth here, but the short version is excellent acting, sometimes interesting film making, and a pace that unfortunately doesn’t keep up with the play. 4/5.

And all was wrong with the world…

Great pickled apple blossoms! New Kids on the Block is reuniting?!?!?
It’s news like this which tempts me to believe, like Job’s friends, that I’ve done some sinful thing to deserve such a horrible reality. I remember when my late Pop Pop, meaning well, gave my brothers and I some NKOTB trading cards (to [...]

Shalom, Beatles.

Who knew? Apparently the Beatles were banned from Israel in 1965 for fear of corrupting the youth. Well now Israel wants them back in order to celebrate the 60th birthday of the modern incarnation of the state.
