No Excuses.

For the three of you that actually read my blog, sorry I haven't posted anything in several weeks. Sure, I have school and work occupying most of my time, but it doesn't take any effort to post an occasional video or such. I promise to do better. At the behest of several people including my father, I'm hoping to write more music and movie reviews in the future. Also, I really, truly, cross my heart, plan to post an ongoing summary of my Dungeons and Dragons campaign. So far we've had two exciting sessions and the story is really shaping up. My next session is this Thursday, so look forward to a fantastical post next weekend.

Thanks to Kotaku.

120 Minutes Archive

I have a reason to wear Doc Martens again. The 120 Minutes Archive is a comprehensive listing of almost every episode with links to over 5000 videos. I didn't do a lot of homework in junior high and high school because I was watching alternative music videos every Sunday night until 2 AM. I feel like some old, bad habits are about to reassert themselves.

Things That Scared The Hell Out Of Me As A Kid, pt 3

Okay, this one still scares me. Although the Buck Rogers television series was one of my favorites growing up, it consistently disturbed me with it's weird aliens and monsters. This little blue dude will forever haunt my dreams.

You can see the full episode here if you need more psychic scars.

Things That Scared The Hell Out of Me As A Kid, pt. 2

I can't believe this terrified me when I was a tyke, but it did. I was haunted for a long time by the eyebrows, the teeth, and the violence against bunnies. If it weren't for the wonders of the internet I would never have seen this clip again and the images would have remained a nightmare in my subconscious. Now I just think it's hilarious.

Things That Scared The Hell Out of Me As A Kid, pt. 1

This is a creature from an episode of The Incredible Hulk TV series. I sat through several reruns of this episode as a kid and every time this monster appeared, I would watch the rest of the show from behind my father's big chair. It never occurred to me to change the channel. Of course, back then we only had 3 or 4 channels, so what else was I going to watch?

Stevie Nicks on SNL '83

I just watched this video 4 times in a row. I don't consider myself a fan, but this performance blew me away.

This blog was started as a class assignment, but you can be sure that I will continue posting when the semester is over. Thanks for the motivation, Dr. Zhang.
