O Captain, My Tek

***  O Captain, My Tek.

O Captain! My Captain! The ALCS are done;The team has weather’d every rack, the pennant we sought is won;The trophy is near, the crowds I hear, the fans all exulting,Papelbon’s eyes a steady keel, the pitcher sober and daring.But O Tek! Tek! Tek!O the uniforms of red,Where in the bullpen Beckett lies,The game’s score’s ahead.

Things that Make a Geek Girl Happy!

 Everyone says their kids or a pet, so those are just given. I have some major props to give and limiting myself to 20 is hardly easy! I may have to do another 1 or 2 of these before I'm satisfied. It's only when I spell things out like this that I discover more things about myself.

Beetlejuice 2?

Beetlejuice 2 news!!!

I fell in love with Beetlejuice when I discovered Tim Burton. He's extremist, he's original and he's

crazy. 3 things I love about people and...myself. So hearing the same rumors for years about 

a second Beetlejuice gets hard to read every time there isn't anything to back it up. Now, we have 

backup! The best news is it will not be a re-make, but a sequel! Go read the rest of the story here!

Did you freak out when you heard about Tupac’s hologram ending up on stage with Snoop Dogg at Coachella? I’m not even a big fan, but I was even like…..whoa! So John Singleton is making a movie about the life and the untimely short death of Tupac Shakur. Read the whole story for his mom’s input and something interesting about his Godmother!

Give me your feedback!!

Hi Hi!

I’m getting my blog underway! Finally! I have some fun things in the works for posts coming up. But I wanted to know what is going on with you! Yup, you, the one that reads my page and never comments. It’s ok, I get it, who wants to be first? What do you want to see more of? The best homestyle recipes that I can’t seem to cook anything but during fall and winter? Craft projects, simple DIY’s for clothing, furniture or art? I am currently writing entertainment releases and reviews of theatre, film, tv shows and editorials over anything that sounds interesting to me. Not to mention my love anything and all things geek.

So give me some ideas, tell me what you like, don’t like, hate and love. I may not change things, then again, I may change things for my few fans if you make yourselves known!

J Thank you!!!

The Book of Negroes Gains an All-Star Cast!!

Jana B. here,

Lawrence Hill wrote a book that has two names. ‘The Book Of Negroes‘ is the Canadian title and ‘Someone Knows My Name‘ is the Americanized title. The base of the story is told through the eyes of Aminata Diallo. She is kidnapped from her South African home at the age of 11. She travels the ocean in captivity being sold into slavery in California. Like the book title, her name is changed once she gets into America, as well.

Netflix Announces Season 3 of House of Cards!

Jana B. here,

 

It’s official. ‘House of Cards‘ fans that have been enjoying the first 2 seasons on Netflix have reason to cheer. Netflix confirmed that they have officially picked up a third season of the wildly successful straight-to-Netflix drama.  ”Our intent is that the show keep going for sure. It was a 26-episode commitment. It was not our intent that it just run for two seasons”, Netflix’s Ted Sarandos said during the announcement.

Leonardo DiCaprio and Jonah Hill team up for Richard Jewell story!

Jana B. here,

I loved ‘The Wolf of Wall Street‘. Two of my favorite things about that movie are Leonardo DiCaprio and Jonah Hill as Jordan Belfort and Donnie Azoff. DiCaprio takes on the unbelievably big characters that are usually brimming with excess and he knocks them over the Green Monster. Every. Single. Time. Jonah Hill has certainly come a long way from my first introduction to him in ‘Superbad‘. I saw him and thought, he’s the token funny, fat guy. I believe every group has to have the token, funny, fat friend. That’s my role. I’m the token, funny, fat girl in my group. I’m really happy that Jonah Hill broke out of that stereotype.

Woody Allen and Small Town America: Shameful Things We Have in Common

Sometimes Hollywood imitates small town life and sometimes small town life imitates Hollywood. Why were we so accepting of Philip Seymour Hoffman’s death due to heroin, but can’t comprehend that Woody Allen can’t help his accused, unnatural behavior? We have to believe the reason of Hoffman’s untimely death because there was proof. Proof is very believable. In a world where we only believe solid, unmitigated proof, one accusation is not enough to turn the public’s head to demand justice.

BURMA!

♪♫” I’m a Lumberjack, and I’m okay. I sleep all night and I work all day.” ♫♪ If you sang that in your head, you know of one of the most influential comedic troupes to ever hit the stage. This also means you will probably be as excited as (BURMA!) I was when I heard that the fantastic Monty Python members are doing a live stage show!!!
