In May of 2002, when the modern era of comic book film adaptations was still in its infancy, Spider-Man starring Tobey Maguire as Peter Parker and Willem Dafoe as the Green Goblin was released into theaters. It was a fantastic film for its time. The movie tells the story about the young high school kid,…

How many of you are fans of The Price is Right? I hate that show. I don’t hate it because it is a bad show. I hate it because I would be no good at it. I’m terrible at guessing the value of a vacuum cleaner, a full kitchen set, or some tropical vacation package. Any time someone asks me to guess how…

Don’t you ever get tired of bad people getting away with doing bad things? We have a strong desire for justice. We want to see true justice fall on those who do wrong things.

The five love languages are words of affirmation, quality…

Do you like to cook? Does anyone else have a collection of online recipes they will never make? Me too. I was at my house the other day and my niece Jade was with me. We were looking through memes I had in my phone. Does anyone else have too many memes stored in their phone? Just me? Ok. There was one…

This year is an Olympic year. The 2026 winter Olympics are right around the corner. They will take place in February. The Olympics is the sporting event around the globe. Athletes from all over the globe will go to Italy to compete in the winter Olympics this year. They will flood L.A. in 2028 for the…

Earlier this week, I left my house a little before 6:00 am to go exercise. It was a bit foggy, but nothing too difficult. I worked out for close to an hour, but when I left, the fog was worse.
