While I highly recommend hiking to anyone–great form of exercise–however I must caution against trying to hike in a thunder storm. So as I mentioned yesterday, today being free entry into any National Park day, we decided to visit the Sunset Crater Volcano National Monument. It’s located in Flagstaff (just outside of it) and includes …
To stay that I am interested in the new show Forever, would be an understatement. I think enthralled would be a better descriptive for it. It’s Sherlock meets Highlander, sans swords and beheadings. Henry, our leading man, has a very unique existence. I am not giving away much by stating he can’t die. Or rather …
Ok, not quite Batman, but young Bruce Wayne is well on his way to letting that revenge fuel him. I am of course referring to the season premier of Gotham on Fox. I’m going to try to limit the spoilers, but everyone knows how Bruce Wayne came to become Batman, so I don’t think I’m …
You don’t have to have been born in the ’80s (or prior) to know of the time period, but it does help. The music, the movies, the fashion– all iconic things that have come and gone, or returned again in the case of certain fashion styles. Of course there are many defining features to the …
This is dedicated to my GISHWHES teammates: past and present, good friends and new friends. Quick intro for anyone reading this who may not know what it is. In a nutshell: The Greatest International Scavenger Hunt the World Has Ever Seen or GISHWHES (all pronunciations welcome) was created by actor and all around awesome human …

If Dirty Harry were to ask me, my answer would be yes. I do feel lucky. I’ve won things (I never used to win anything) and had the opportunity to go on a couple fantastic road trips with some awesome people. So despite being stressed out at work quite often lately, I can appreciate the …
I finally settled down to watch Defiance (the show on SyFy), I had missed a few. Or so I thought. I pulled up the DVR list and was surprised to find five shows waiting for me, including the finale. It’s not like I was avoiding watching it, I just had other things to watch and …
One is often reminded of their age in everyday life. Some times in a way that boosts the ego and sometimes in a way that just makes you feel old. It was during one such moment of age-reminding weakness that I made myself a strawberry milk with Nesquik and settled in front of my laptop. …
High noon, the sun bright in the sky as the heat ripples just above the dusty ground. Cowboys and saloon girls stroll along the street while horse-drawn stagecoaches roll through town. Gunfire and shouting disturbs the peace. The scene plays out: gun-toting marshals apprehend a couple of wanted outlaws. All ends well with minimal injuries …
