ageless rockers

I watched a cool special on PBS where acts from the 60s performed their hits (most of them in their 60s themselves!). It was so wild seeing them young in video clips and then today performing live. Their bodies might’ve aged but their hearts are forever young thanks to music. Here’s Peter and Gordon from…

Auditions of all 14 American Idol Finalists!

Here they are. All 14 finalists from the first seven seasons of American Idol! Sadly, I was able to remember them all without even using google! How many can you name?

Solid Gold Talent

They sure don’t make ‘em like that anymore! Solid Gold was TV show from 1980 to 1989 that featured the “solid gold dancers” (see photo) that performed jaw-dropping, awe-inspiring choreography for the top songs that week. OK, I might be exaggerating a tad there. I think it helped young men get thru puberty if you…

American Midol

I’ve been a fan of American Idol since day one and I’ve been enjoying season seven a great deal. However, the news I just read is giving the producers a major headache and has left a sour taste in my mouth. I can’t believe what is going on this season. A major controversy among the…

Nick Burns, Your Company's Computer Guy

Every nerd or geek from I.T. (like me) loved the “Nick Burns, Your Company’s Computer Guy” sketch from Saturday Night Live. Jimmy Fallon was hilarious and dead-on as the cynical sarcastic helpdesk hero. While most of the jargon and technical props were way off base in regards to realism, the sentiment of the sketches were…

Too Thin and Too Rich

As much as it disturbs me to admit this, but I do find Paris Hilton extremely attractive. I also think she’s rather trampy, stupid and classless, but that does not negate the fact that she is one of the most beautiful creatures on the face of the planet. I think she can appear too skinny…

The Simple Life?

Here is another guilty pleasure admission: I enjoy watching The Simple Life! It’s that new reality (so-called) TV show featuring two rich chicks (Paris Hilton & Nicole Richie) trying to survive in the country. It’s bad TV at its best and just like a car wreck you can’t look away when it’s on! I think…

Average Joe, My Ass!

I will admit that I enjoyed watching the latest reality TV show called “Average Joe”, but I was ticked off by the way it ended, so predictably! The woman picked the model-looking guy over the real average Joe named Adam. What did I expect anyway? She was a friggin’ Miami Heat cheerleader and she immediately…

Galileo: The Man with the Stars in his eyes

I know this will clearly reveal me to be the geek that I am, but I just watched a thoroughly captivating and enjoyable documentary on Galileo! It was on PBS…of course! It was different than the usual documentary in that it was almost like a movie…with actors portraying the genius astronomer and other key figures…
