Well, let’s talk about barrels of oil. Or maybe it’s barrels of cash, or should it be gold or even diamonds? Today, the price per barrel of gold almost hit $120 per 42 gallon barrel of oil. That equates to about $2.85 in base price per gallon of crude oil. Now, only about 50% of […]

I’m sure most of you have started to see the little scrolling tag lines on your television while you are watching some of your favorite programming. You know, the ones informing you of the impending change from analog television to digital transmission. What and why does this mean anything to you? Well, up until the […]

Time for a movie review! I just had the “pleasure” of watching a movie called “Balls of Fury.” It’s a movie, and I’m using that loosely here, about ping pong. Table tennis for the pros out there…. Let me just get right to the point, how and why did this movie go from thought, to […]

Are we ready for some Political Beef? I know it can be a polarizing subject, but this one isn’t going to be an article asking to choose a side in the sense of Democrat versus Republican. This particular beef is going to be about something that to me makes me want to pull my hair […]

Finally! Well, it really wasn’t that long of a wait, 4 weeks or so, but still! What am I talking about? The television drama “Lost,” on ABC, returned.

Today is Earth day so I figured I would join in the buzz and write up an article from my perspective about all of this going green hype. I whole heartedly agree with people, companies, and governments focusing on trying to become more ecologically friendly. However, it appears to me that this whole green movement […]

Today, in a forum I visit, I ran across an interesting post involving an employee of a game development company and his written comments available via his own online blog. The post tracked down evidence from this employee’s own site, to use as ammunition as to why this particular software company has been portrayed as […]

I was sitting here trying to think of something interesting to type about today and I saw that Television Ramblings needed its first entry. Here it comes! I’m not sure if most of you out there have seen or even heard of it, but the NBC Today Show (which is a news/information program) recently added […]

Let’s get into my first movie review. As you will notice, it’s not going to be your normal movie review that you have read online or viewed on television. It will be something new, a review in the most simplistic form along with a focus upon certain statements or scenes within the movie. AVP:2 is […]
