I’m confused. The Weinstein Co. release “The Last Legion,” featuring Ben Kingsley in an action tale set in ancient Rome, tanked with just $2.6 million, finishing at No. 12. advertisement In narrower release, MGM’s comedy “Death at a Funeral,” a tale of outrageous goings-on at a British patriarch’s farewell, opened solidly with $1.3 million. — […]

This Blows Me Away

October 30th, 2003 · No Comments

Warning (I’m quite serious): If you are offended by stories about sexual activities, do not click this link. I’ve no idea how long this page will be up, since it’s obviously a spoof not sanctioned by CNN. But when a friend sent me the link, I didn’t immediately realize it was not real. The jokester […]

Eyes Open

April 24th, 2003 · No Comments

When Bush’s War against America began, I started writing “little blurbs” which were peppered with links to news stories here and there either to prove — as Dave Barry says — that I was not making something up, to draw out the implications, or to otherwise show my thoughts about it. This was quite laborious. […]
