This Bright River Author: Patrick Somerville Riveting. Incorrigible. Somerville attains the near impossible, a novel close to contemporary perfection. Words ooze onto the page, spill into his characters and devour us as readers. His people and their locales, the damage they render, the damage done to them, owns us. Rappelling, retreating, stumbling heroically upon their own realities and those of the other, Ben Hanson and Laurel Sheehan create a tenuous blend of what they were, what they ... continue reading...

Old Guys Rule T Shirt and Hat I only wish Old Guys Rule would come up with an Old Divas Rule Better line of sport t-shirts, hats, and a LOT of cool product on their website.

DVD Reviews: Snow White and the Huntsman
Snow White and The Huntsman I first caught this movie in theaters on opening night. Not because I wanted to see it but because some coworkers did.

A man’s dirty disgusting feet inches ... continue reading...
