Over the weekend I watched 'Avengers: Infinity War' and 'Avengers: Endgame.' The tone and mood of the movies matched what's going on in my life. Last week, my campus had a study break to enable staff, and students, to prepare for online learning. I scrambled to brush on WebEx, a meeting software provided by the … Continue reading Music Monday: Portals By Alan Silvestri

Happy New Year!
Good-bye 2017, try not to let the door hit you in the ass on the way out. I decided on a solitary new year, something younger me would think makes a person a loser, usually because someone else said it and I believed it as gospel. I watched The Avengers and its sequel yet again, … Continue reading Happy New Year!
Midweek Geekiness: The Avengers Are Com…I mean… Assembling!
Oh baby: https://twitter.com/Marvel/status/570267577189937152 Hard to believe the sequel will release very soon. Nearly 3 years have passed since The Avengers. The successive movies, plus TV's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D show a different setting as the venerable agency couldn't stop a hydra threat. (Unless Coulson shows up disguised as a waiter, and says 'Short version...not dead' a la … Continue reading Midweek Geekiness: The Avengers Are Com…I mean… Assembling!

Environment Canada called it a 'heavy snow fall warning.' While the wind largely died down in the evening, the ice found itself covered in loosely … Continue reading Get Out of Your Head and Into Your Legs
Midweek Geekiness: Through the Looking-Back Glass
Like many blog writers, I looked over my posts over this almost-completed year. Technically, this blog has gone on for over a year. I had reflective posts, fumbling posts, and Book Talk posts. Midweek Geekiness came after getting stumped for ideas. Using the adage 'write what you know', I read all things sundry and nerdy. … Continue reading Midweek Geekiness: Through the Looking-Back Glass
Midweek Geekiness: Bringing Home The Avengers and Writing Outside the Blog
Unless someone lives under a rock, The Avengers came out on DVD yesterday. I decided to purchase the DVD/Blu-Ray combo pack with plans to purchase a Blu-Ray player next month. The gag reels and other extra goodies remain in the Blu-Ray disc, but I have a Joss Whedon commentary on the DVD side. Fine by … Continue reading Midweek Geekiness: Bringing Home The Avengers and Writing Outside the Blog
Midweek Geekiness
Where the heck do I start? How about a new Avengers trailer? Trailer number one made me giddy, while trailer number two amps my anticipation to warp 11. We have a collection of well-beloved super heroes, played by some well-beloved actors, with Joss Whedon directing, and his lines flowing out of Robert Downey Jr like … Continue reading Midweek Geekiness
