  • Colgate 2-in-1 Liquid Gel

    Click here for general site update. The best part is the packaging A year ago for Christmas (not as a main gift, mind you) I was presented with a new “breakthrough” in toothpaste technology. While not as exciting as say, a whale watching trip that I didn’t get to go on, or a book about […]

  • Getting Older

    I’ve realized recently that I’m rapidly approaching fogey-hood, and I have nothing to show for it. I’m simply older; not wiser, not more experienced, not more distinguished. Just older. As I rapidly approach the beginning of my 23rd year, it’s more and more obvious that it’s all going downhill from now on. Why now instead […]

  • The Cleveland Marriot Downtown at Key Center

    This review is the final installment of the Cleveland Trifecta A programming note: Being that one of the goals of this site is to avoid becoming a “rant blog,” I’ll apologize for my three most recent reviews. (Those two links are only coincidentally related to computer topics — they’re on the first page of google […]

  • Thursday

    A review of the actual day, not the “Post hardcore” band Thursday is probably the most overlooked day of the week, aside from Sunday. While Sunday is the day of regret followed by wild Saturday nights and the disappointing realization that the weekend is over and tomorrow is Monday, Thursday will forever live sandwiched between […]

  • The Cleveland ChopHouse & Brewery

    This review is the second leg of the Cleveland Trifecta There’s nothing worse than not getting what you pay for. I’m no “fine diner;” I don’t consult dining guides (Zagat’s, Mobil, or the new-as-of-today Michelin guide for New York). Some have called me a picky eater, but this isn’t “picky” due to anything other than […]

  • “Beth” by KISS

    Caution: This cover contains no less than four lies. Just a few more hours and I`ll be right home to you I think I hear them callin Oh Beth what can I do Beth what can I do “Beth” was KISS’s first and, most likely, only top ten hit; originally a b-side from their 1976 […]

  • Cleveland, Ohio

    This review is the first leg of The Cleveland Trifecta Cleveland is a very weird city. The stereotypes surrounding it are…um, everything that goes with the “Cleveland Rocks” intro of The Drew Carey Show and people who look like Drew Carey and like the Browns. That’s not really much upon which to base my good-intentioned […]

  • The Hype Surrounding This Week’s “Trading Spouses”

    Click here for general site update. I’ve never watched Fox’s Trading Spouses. I’ll never watch it again. But I watched it last night, and I’m glad I did. You might’ve seen the ads, “THE BIGGEST REALITY BLOW-UP EVER!!!” or something like that. Considering all of the times that people could remember details of the commercials, […]

  • Nate’s Review of Good Night, and Good Luck.

    Recently, this Site’s integrity has been challenged. A member of our Junior Staff, though well-intentioned, has violated one of the precepts of reviewing. This review reviews that review, explains its shortcomings, then concludes with an establishment of goals for both The Site and its Junior Staff. Nate takes aim at the press but hits George […]

  • Good Night and Good Luck

    “Good Luck” reading all of this review When Jim Carrey got all dolled up, put on the funny accent, and opened his eyes real wide to play Andy Kaufman way back when, in “Man on the Moon”, everyone was calling it a “revelation”. Nobody believed that somebody could totally embody a role/person as Carrey did. […]
