Notorious

It’s one of the most debated questions in all of movie fandom, “What is Alfred Hitchcock’s best movie?” There really aren’t any bad answers, it boils down to personal taste. It’s a question I myself have always gone back and forth on for most of my life. I used to state, in somewhat of a […]

 

Tea Time with Appalachian Barbie

Walking the Line Between Pleasure & Pain

Last weekend I sped to Pal’s first thing to get my once-a-month cheddar round fix. The cashier hadn’t even shut the window before I was digging my grubby hands into the bag, searching for my first hit of deep fried, cheddar and potato filled goodness. I could feel the heat blistering my fingers as I […]

 

Pop Life

Replicas

Keanu Reeves is at it again: he’s “acting.” Don’t get me wrong, Mr. Reeves has been wonderful in many roles, including “Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure”, and “The Matrix” series of films.

Plan Your Road Trip Well in Advance

I have a trip coming up in March that I’m already thinking about. It’s not a long trip, I’ll be spending a weekend in Gatlinburg with the improv group I’m a part of performing at a festival. Even though this trip is well over a month away, I’m already doing my mental planning about it. […]

 

Busch Gardens Williamsburg

Williamsburg, Virginia, serves as an icon of American history. The nearby community of Jamestown was the first permanent settlement when British explorers landed here over four centuries ago. Throughout the 1700s, this slice of the Virginia Peninsula would continue to have a strong European influence as it became the capital of the fledging Virginia Colony. […]
