Selling my soul

For the bulk of my 21 years, I have been an avowed underdog supporter. Just a brief survey of the New York area teams I grew up watching will prove my point: I follow the Mets, Jets, Islanders and Nets. Apparently, I was cursed with a streak of bad luck in my formative sports-watching years.

CW?So calling cards and cell phones stink. I may have to get a job just to cover the cost of hearing your soft little voice! Do you want to spend one more night putting your section on the web while I wait for you! Or maybe a night cuddling with me while I’m on duty? Just 4 more weeks! Love, TF

Shortly thereafter, there was contempt

In order to properly understand why I’m so angry at AT&T, you’ll need a little bit of background.

I guess in order for things to be perfectly clear, we’ll have to go back to the magical month of June in the magical year of 1980. It was a strange time for the United States.

Storytelling another unsettling tale

Todd Solondz makes me cringe. He also makes me laugh, but it is the laughter of discomfort, the laughter that asks, “Did that just happen?” Those who have seen a Todd Solondz film are all too familiar with this feeling. Partly due to this, the three films since his popular debut further reinforce the stereotype of what “A Todd Solondz Film” will be, namely a movie that is controversial, mean-spirited and unsettling.
