Review: Spider-Man: The Other

Filed in Comics, Nostalgia, Review, Splash Panel on March 18, 2010 at 7:28 pm

Spider-Man: The Other is not your typical comic book death and rebirth story. It’s an immense tale worthy of most high-caliber television series. Woven by writers Peter David, Reginald Hudlin, and J. Michael Straczynski, and illustrated by Mike Wieringo, Pat Lee, and Mike Deodato, Jr., The Other is not without its faults, but it is an in-depth experience not to be missed by any Spider-Man fan.

New House

Filed in General, Nostalgia, Noteworthy on August 15, 2009 at 7:12 pm

As Sarah mentioned, we have been in our new 4-bedroom Rialto home since March of this year.  We were lucky enough to purchase it before building began, so we got our choice of flooring, countertops, and cabinets.  We were also lucky enough to receive “upgraded” appliances and landscaping in both yards, which the builders were kind enough to add to our home as they began to increase incentives on the unsold homes.  It practically has everything we need; bedrooms for sleeping, a kitchen for cooking, a living room for TV and Wii, an office for computer stuff, a den for violin lessons, a spare room for Sarah’s booming Mary Kay business, and bathrooms for bathrooming.  I’m sure that you probably want to see what it looks like, so here are a few photos of the new house, taken during various stages of development.  Enjoy!

It sure has been quiet around here.  One of these days, I’ll get around to writing a post about the new house, but until then, enjoy this:

Distracting Trumpet

Filed in Humor, Music, Video on April 27, 2009 at 11:49 pm

If you’re a fan of classic mafia themed films, you probably remember sitting through several instances of the almost stereotypical abstract trumpet solos which either distracted you from the dialogue or at least left you wondering, “Where have they stashed the trumpeter this time?”

It’s Earth Day again!  If you haven’t been saving the environment for free, today is the perfect day to start.  It’s also the perfect day to plant trees and donate to a few worthy charities, like The Nature Conservancy and The Conservation Fund.
