I’m not going to get political here… I try to keep national politics out of my general day to day living cause I tend to believe that you’re entitled to your opinion and I’m entitled to mine and nothing we say is going to change the others’ mind. That said, I ran across this the other day and I have to share it, not because I necessarily like President Trump but I appreciate it on … Continue reading
Last night was opening night for Avengers: Endgame here in the states. The film is based on the Marvel Comics superhero team the Avengers and is the sequel to 2012’s The Avengers, 2015’s Avengers: Age of Ultron (review here) and 2018’s Avengers: Infinity War. It is also the 22nd (!) film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) but you already knew all of that because you haven’t been living under a rock for the last 11 … Continue reading
I wrote a nearly identical post a couple of years back when I saw Star Wars: The Last Jedi. I saw Avengers: Endgame last night on it’s national opening night. There’s a lot to process and I can’t wait to see it again, though if I’m being honest it’ll probably not be until it comes out on video. My kids haven’t been introduced to the MCU (I know… my fault) and I want to make … Continue reading
AUTHOR’S NOTE: I started writing this post WEEKS ago and I’m just getting around to finishing it. I still need to write my WrestleMania 35 recap but I’m writing this from the perspective that I haven’t seen Mania. Last Sunday night the WWE held its fifth annual Fastlane event right here in my hometown of Cleveland, Ohio at the Quicken Loans Arena. I had no intention of actually going to the event but my brother … Continue reading
Earlier this afternoon we finally got our first look at the upcoming Star Wars movie which we now know will be called The Rise of Skywalker. To say I’m excited would be an understatement of pretty epic proportions. I’ll admit that the more I watch The Last Last Jedi but I’m not going to allow one sub par film ruin my love for the franchise. And I’m certainly not going to let it diminish my … Continue reading
A few years back the Wife and I went to St. Lucia to celebrate our 40th birthdays. We went to a nice little all inclusive joint that I can’t for the life of me remember the name of but that I’d highly recommend. How’s that for a solid recommendation? Anyhow, When we checked in they met us in the lobby with drinks as we came off the bus and let us choose what booze we … Continue reading
WrestleMania 35 will be held on Sunday, April 7, 2019 at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. As of this writing I’m not sure if Pip will be joining me this year. If I had to guess at this point I’d say no. That said for the second year in a row will be my brother Mark and I (and my kids) watching the show. I don’t even think I did a Beeramid recap … Continue reading
It’s been forever since I’ve done a Pic From 406 entry. Today’s entry for Throwback Thursday was originally posted to the site the week of March 2nd, 3 with the following caption: Putting a picture of you with your friend passed out behind you on your credit card…priceless. That’s brother Pip’s credit card. I’ll leave it to you to try and remember (figure out) who’s on the couch 😉 Do you have any other 406 related photos? … Continue reading
Ferris Bueller famously said, “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.” I really hate to say how busy I am. We’re all busy. We’ve all got shit that we’re dealing with. When I’m dealing with… stuff… I turn to the world of music. There’s always something there that speaks to me. Today, I turned to what I’d consider a classic. I’ve known the words to this one for years, but … Continue reading
I’ve been doing these “Look Back” posts since back in 2010. A down year for my activity here with only 27 posts (!). Terrible. Just terrible. This is already my fourth of this year and I’m making an effort to get back into it because I really miss it. It’s always interesting (to me at least) to see what posts make the list and to see if there are posts that prevail through the years. The Top 10 … Continue reading
