Under Lurhmann’s creative helm, the numerous music powerhouses contributing songs […]

I have been wondering when they were going to get Norman involved in taxidermy ever since they said Emma’s father was a taxidermist, and the answer is now. This episode starts with Emma’s dad offering to teach Norman taxidermy, but more on that later because it quickly cuts to Emma running into the ladies’ room […]

It’s Cinco de Mayo! Time to sip margaritas, down coronas, and drink tequila out of people’s belly buttons, or not… either way it’s the third biggest party day of the year after New Year’s and St. Patty’s Day, but do you know what Cinco De Mayo is really all about?

There was a time when I thought being a tea connoisseur was tasting the difference between […]

Perhaps it’s my traveler’s soul, or maybe I’m just fascinated by the notion that we’re all slowly drifting together and apart at the same time. Either way, I like map art and it […]

The new trailer for Now You See Me opens with Morgan Freeman encouraging us to “come in close, because the more you think you see, the easier it will be to fool you.” I must be looking to way to close because no matter how hard I try, I can’t figure out exactly what this […]

I, like many other women out there, find Mr. Ryan Gosling to be visually pleasing. I enjoy the different variations of the ”Hey, Girl” meme, although the feminist version is my favorite, and I’m not going to say I’ll watch a movie just because my favorite Canadian goose is in it, but I won’t deny it either.
