Merry Christmas to all of you!!!

Hi folks!! I'm not 4K yet, though I try to buy in that format for future-proofing. Now that some releases are 4K disc only (with or w/o digital copy), I got a 4K player though it will downconvert to 1080P on my TV. Being that the TV works perfectly fine and is also 3D capable, I'll hang on to...

Happy Holidays, everyone!! Steve, I was watching "The Curse" on Britbox and they showed Safeway bags with the exact same big S logo as here. Didn't know Safeway was over there. (Well, the show takes place in the 80s.)

Hi all, I haven't been to the theater in over 2 years now and am actually not missing it. Movies come to streaming or disk so quickly nowadays. I've been trying to catch up on movies with Oscar noms recently, including "Drive My Car", "Eyes of Tammy Faye", "Coda". "Coda" was definitely the...

I've seen Priest 3 times, including the 2011 tour at The Joint in Las Vegas. I felt the same way -- I couldn't believe Halford hitting those notes!! Some felt so piercing to my ears! I have his book "Confess" on audiobook but haven't listened to it yet. And I like that he's a cat person!

I was supposed to see Judas Priest in Vegas on October 8 but had cancelled my plans a while back. Turns out that concert and the rest of the tour was cancelled anyway because guitarist Richie Faulkner had emergency heart surgery after having an aortic aneurysm while performing "Painkiller" (and...

Wow, it's been a long time since I visited here. Good to see you guys. I am missing going to Vegas most of all. While it's doable now and my Vegas bands just started playing again, it won't be feasible for me to go for a few months. I always use the same travel agency with a good Vegas...

I'm currently reading "Ballistic" by Mark Greaney, the third in the "Grey Man" series. I really enjoy this series and it would translate well to film. I recently finished "The Last One" by Alexandra Oliva. Fantastic premise -- it's like "Survivor" set in a post-apocalyptic world. Very good...

Hi folks, It's now been one year since my last trip to Vegas. Being that I normally go 4 - 5 times a year, I've been missing it so much. But my Vegas bands aren't allowed to play anyway, so I wouldn't go without that. I've had 2 of my Keith Urban concerts there cancelled and my...

My current foster kitty, sitting in my (his) chair. He needs to gain weight to make the neuter limit. Very hyper kitty, partly because he doesn't have a pal. I really prefer to foster them in pairs or more, but he was by himself. VERY vocal when he is hungry and makes cute little squeaks...

It's so tempting to get a 4K TV now that the prices are good. BUT, my 3D TV looks fine, and I have a bunch of 3Ds I haven't watched yet. I have been forward-thinking and buying 4K/Blu-ray combos if the sale price isn't much more than the Blu-ray alone. A while back, I placed most of my DVD...

Local cinemas have just reopened recently but I won't be going in the near future. I'm actually not missing going as I am watching many TV shows and movies at home. Recently finished S1 of "Why Women Kill", S1 of the new "Twilight Zone" (working on S2 now), S4 of "Lucifer". Watching...

She's no Nastassja Kinski!! I haven't seen any of "True Detective" yet. Stephen Dorff's recent show "Deputy" was cancelled. It was pretty good, but I actually think the look of the show might have turned people off. It often had that sepia-toned look of some films and perhaps was not...

These were my most recent fosters, Archie and Sundae. Sweet kitties and very quiet except a couple of times in the carrier. They made their weight for spay/neuter and were placed at a "cat cafe" about 10 days ago and both appear to have been adopted!! These 2 had diarhea a while (so common...

Trying to catch up on some series off my DVR and movies. Finished Season 3 of "Killing Eve". I know people were very divided over the final episode, but I kind of liked how it ended. Already renewed for S4. Just started S3 of "The Sinner" starring Matt Bomer. I didn't care for S2, but this...
