Wednesday, March 18th, 2009**Since I am redesigning VASS due to technical difficulties, I have not been able to present recent thoughts that would appear on that blog. I hope you will bear with me as I present posts that belong on that blog on this one. This is a temporary situation.** I received an interesting notice from the [...]
Movie Preview: Pandorum
Wednesday, March 18th, 2009Well at least Hollywood is consistent. That’s the first impression I get from the movie trailer for Pandorum. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ar5AVvw1R4&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0] Instantly you get the feeling that the movie is a mix of sci-fi horror movies – specifically Alien – and the recent rash of video games.

Silver was probably best known to the public for his work in Ali, Silkwood, Timecop, The Arrival and on television in Law & Order. I personally found his work on the West Wing to [...]
CloFu – the new craze for crazy PETA
Friday, March 13th, 2009You know nothing says nutjob quite the way that PETA tends to. They go to extremes it seems to ensure that the average person looks at them like they have lost their minds. Take the most recent stunt/idea they had. Everyone loves George Clooney right? PETA thinks so. And everyone should like tofu – a [...]
