Then & Now: Topanga Lawrence...
So, I was sitting at work wondering to myself whatever happened to Topanga from Boy Meets World or rather what happened to Danielle Fishel. What has the once popular teen tv star been doing with herself since I received the pretty autographed black and white and a super friendly form letter back in middle...
Clintons - SNL: 90’s and Now...
The Clintons have provided America, and the world, with entertainment, scandal, and oh yes, politics, since early in the 1990’s. From Bill playing the saxophone, Monica Lewinsky, and President to the more recent days serving as an ambassador to foreign countries, working side by side with other...
Livin’ in an Amish Paradise...
“Weird Al” Yankovic has worn so many different hats throughout his career - singer, musician, actor, satirist, parodist, songwriter, music producer, accordionist (didn’t know that was a word until now) and TV producer. This crazy guy has been at it in the entertainment biz for a lonnnng...
SNL in the 90s...
It has become quite fashionable to rip on Saturday Night Live (SNL) in recent years. The current show does not feature any cast members that can completely dominate sketches like back in the old days, though I am in love with Kristen Wiig and folks like Will Forte (MAGRUBER!) and Bill Hader are pretty funny.
It’s Not Always Uphill After That ...
While watching the Grammys Sunday night I saw two kinds of emotions:
Bored - from the “been there done that” artists who act like winning so much isn’t a big deal
Elated - from the newbies who truly are excited to be recognized as the best in their genre
That got me to thinking about...
Debating the Merit of a Grammy...
I’ve always aspired to be a true music snob. But the part of me that wanted to be too cool for Boyz II Men’s “End of the Road” & Mariah Carey’s “Heartbreaker” in favor of Elliot Smith’s “Ballad of Big Nothing” & The Pixies’ “Velouria”...
Stay Extinct, Dinos…...

I miss a lot of 90s programming. Specifically, I really miss TGIF. I miss Perfect Strangers and Step by Step. I miss Boy Meets World and sometimes, in my darkest hour, I even miss Sabrina… the teenage witch. But to all my fellow Friday-nighters I must say I do not miss Dinosaurs. I don’t...

Ok fine! I’m afraid of the dark...
Are You Afraid of the Dark? was a show based on a group of kids called “The Midnight Society”. Every episode started with the members meeting in the woods and telling their own spooky tale…and throwing some gay glitter on the fire. I remember watching these shows during sleepover’s...

I have it on good authority - saw it with awestruck eyes -that there is a hair salon/barber in Columbus, OH that pays homage to the one and only Mullet hairstyle. Yes it’s true folks, Crazy Mullets is located by The Ohio State campus area on High Street, near many typical popular campus restaurants...
