Posted on February 26, 2009 by Jason

Sunny and I celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary this August. We’ve been tinkering with the idea of a trip to Boston to celebrate. Obviously, I’d want to go to Fenway and catch a Red Sox game. But I’m wondering … Continue reading →

Today we honor the men who hold the highest office in our land, our Presidents. I’ve been recording “The Presidents“, a multiple-episode biopic of the American Presidents. I’ve only been able to watch a few minutes of one episode, but … Continue reading →

So much to discuss about last night’s episode, and I’m writing this on my lunch break, so let’s get right to it: I always love episodes with heavy doses of Sun & Jin and this episode was no exception. I … Continue reading →

Little Boys and their Heroes

Posted on February 10, 2009 by Jason

I can’t even muster up the energy to write a full-length post on the recent news of Alex Rodriguez’s steroid use, an allegation he confirmed in an “apology” interview with Peter Gammons on ESPN last night. Needless to say, as … Continue reading →
