This post has been a long time coming for me. As most of my readers know, I am a drummer. I have been playing since I was 12 years old and to this day, outside of the Millenium Falcon and my current drum set, the best gift I ever received was a Tama Swingstar drumset…

As it is a Friday before a holiday/long weekend and most people are already either on route to somewhere cool or getting ready to check out to someplace not work, I didn’t put too much prep into this week’s #thereisnospoonfriday blog post. Yes – I still feel compelled to write one, but this one is…
It finally happened after years of avoiding it. I was getting out of my car this weekend and as the door opened my iPhone went flying out of my hands. In what seemed like slow motion, it hurtled up and down as I leaped (literally) out of my car and dove to try to catch…
I, like most people, am a big Quentin Tarantino fan. His movies are always fun to watch, with amazing dialogue and really cool characters. He hires great actors and gives them amazing scripts to work with, and almost always has some things up his sleeve to keep audiences on the edge of their seats. He…
Having been in the generation that grew up with NWA and the early days of rap, it was an absolute no-brainer for me to go see “Straight Outta Compton” as soon as I could possibly could (read – when kids were otherwise occupied). NWA was a real game changer for rap, and has spawned two…
Recently I was hanging with some friends and we were discussing some of my prior Friday blog Top 10 lists. One of my buddies brought up the topic of the Top 10 sports movies of all time, and a great discussion followed. Turns out, there are A LOT more great sports related movies out there…
This week’s Friday “non-business” blog is my take on the Top 10 Actors of All Time. I was chilling with some friends recently and this debate came up. The conversation got really heated – with some of the group saying that we were ignoring prior generations of actors, or relying too much on critic perceptions…
As any reader of this blog knows, for #thereisnospoonfriday I love to do Top 10 or Top 20 lists of All Time for various different subjects. For this week, I am going to do another list – but this one isn’t about the “best” but rather the most underrated. As I was writing some of…
As most of you know by now if you have read anything I have posted, I am a massively unabashed dork. If something has anything to do with my favorite movies, TV shows or toys from my youth I am in 100%. My wife still gets puzzled when I bring home new things (see toys,…
This week’s #thereisnospoonfriday is thirsty. Thirsty for a great beer. I am not much of a wine guy, but definitely can enjoy a good glass (or several) every now and then. I am definitely not a hard alcohol type either – too many tough nights in college with Tequila or Vodka has kept me away…
