Outdoor Movies are Dumb
This is an opinion. A correct one. In an age of Netflix and video on demand there are limited reasons to watch a movie anywhere but from the comfort of your own home, with a loved one (or alone) while looking at your phone. The only reason to not watch a movie… [Read More]
Different Books Should Be Read in Different Ways
Recommending books is an art that too few people have mastered, because it’s easy to ignore all of the moving pieces involved. Who are you recommending the book to? What are they going through, if anything, in their life right now? Is this book for a vacation, a palette cleanser,… [Read More]
