Jaws and the Real Reason for My Irrational Fear of Sharks

The Newsroom - HBO

In Defense of: The Newsroom

Aaron Sorkin’s latest series The Newsroom returns tonight for its final season on HBO, and I, for one, am excited. The Newsroom faces a lot of scrutiny and has had some pretty not nice things said about it, some of which I agree with. And yet, I still love it and I’m looking forward to its return.

Nicki Minaj Anaconda

Well That’s a Kick in the Pants (Good Thing She’s Not Wearing Any)

Nicki Minaj is butthurt because her alma mater, which is also my alma mater, declined her invitation to speak there. Too bad for her that’s not the whole story.

I’ve moved!

My website, that is. One big physical move (from D.C. to L.A.) is enough for a few years. We’ve been living in L.A. for almost two years now, and I’ve learned a lot, about writing and blogging, and blog hosting, among many other things. I’ve decided to make my blog a little more professional, hopefully,…

Welcome!

Welcome!
Welcome to my blog! I'm so glad you stopped by. I'm a writer, former dancer, and pop culture junkie who firmly believes in the Oxford Comma. I love geek-related things, but I'm not a big video gamer and I'm starting to suffer from Comic Book Hero burnout, so I'm just to the side of geek. Geek Adjacent! Please take a look around, and I hope you stay. If you do go away, please come again, and bring your friends! :) Feel free to contact me: camusr6@gmail.com.

Looking for web hosting? I recommend Bluehost!

In my experience as a web designer, I’ve found that I really like working with Bluehost for hosting and domain needs. They’re a great company with a good product, and they offer excellent tech support! I’ve been recommending them for years, because I like them, and then a friend said to me, “why don’t you join their affiliate program?” How did I not think of this before? 🙂

Well, I’ve finally done it. That means that I get a commission whenever someone joins Bluehost through my website. So If you’re looking for web hosting services, please consider signing up with Bluehost, through this link here. Thank you for your support!
