My Evening With Ivan Reitman

Okay, so I wasn't the only one there, but I sure felt I could have been. For those who may not know, Ivan Reitman is the director/producer of some of my favorite movies. These include, and are not limited to, Ghostbusters, Stripes, Animal House, Dave, Evolution, Old School, and many more.

Last night I was fortunate enough to attend an event at USC where the man himself sat and talked for a little over an hour, answering various questions, and then sat with us as we watched Ghostbusters. It was surreal.

Ironing Bored (Clever huh?)

Ironing sucks. I hate it. Yet, it is a necessity in my life. I can't afford to have someone else do it all the time, and I can't go to job interviews with wrinkled clothes. I can go to my current job with wrinkled clothes, but I don't.


At least, not all the time. Yeah, I know, my mom raised me better than that. But, if you ask her, she'll say the same thing. Ironing sucks. So, you know, there's that. Moving on.

TV Upfronts (part 2) (CBS and CW)

Today the CW presented their line up to advertisers, and yesterday CBS showed their's. Not too many surprises considering a lot of this news leaked out before official presentations, except personally, I'm shocked that "One Tree Hill" continues to be made!! I don't know what deal with the devil was made there but wow, I'm shocked every year I see it on the schedule. Let's take a look at both their lineups for next year.

Series Finale - Smallville

If you happen to follow me on Twitter (or Facebook) you already know that I enjoyed the series finale of "Smallville" last week. Was it the best finale ever? No, of course not. Was the best finale "Smallville" could have been? Absolutely.

Series finale - Stargate Universe

I read an article that said Stargate, in one form or another, has been on TV for almost 14 years. Wow. Just think about that for a moment, just think about how much has changed in the last 14 years. When I think about it, Stargate has been a part of my life over the years, and we've both sort of grown up together.

TV Upfronts (NBC, ABC, FOX)

Every year around this time the tv networks make their presentations to advertisers (and the media) about which shows will be on their schedule next year, they call this the 'Upfronts.' Usually, we can all pretty much guess which shows will make it back and which will get canceled, but lately it's been harder to tell, which could be a good thing. In this year's crop we have some surprises, where networks are letting some low rating shows stay, while cancelling some higher performing ones.  Let's see what we have.

Drunk Blog (episode 1)

2011 is the year of adventure. Now, adventure doesn't equate to being drunk all the time, but in thehis case it does.  I'm looking at the keyboard while I type this so I'm hoping that I make few mistakes, bu thaose that I do make I am leaving in for posterity. Here are some of the thtoughts that I had while my inrtoxication level rose this eveing:
